German parliament votes to define BDS movement as ‘anti-semitic’
GERMANY voted to define the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement as anti-semitic yesterday, becoming the only European nation to do so.
The German parliament accepted the motion titled “Resist the BDS Movement” which stated that “the German Bundestag is unwavering in its commitment to condemn and combat anti-semitism in all its forms.”
The Bundestag stressed it will oppose “anyone who defames people because of their Jewish identity, questions the right of the Jewish and democratic state of Israel to exist or Israel’s right to defend itself.”
