It’s an ironic development, but now that he has very publicly violated state and federal anti-BDS laws, the Prime Minister of Israel will no longer be able to provide contracting services to Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Texas, or Wisconsin, or even enter the State of Israel.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has called for a boycott of the producers of a HBO series which, he says, is “anti-Semitic” and “slanders Israel.” Netanyahu took to Facebook to call for a boycott of “propaganda” Channel 12 and its owner Keshet for creating the show ‘Our Boys’, which he says “besmirches the good name of Israel.” He urged his followers to stop watching the channel, especially those who have a ratings meter in their homes.
I’m sure this very surprising endorsement of BDS by the Prime Minister will take BDS advocates by surprise, but I’m sure they are sufficiently open-minded to welcome old Bibi to their cause of boycotting Israeli businesses and individuals.
