Part 2 A Debate on Ending Israels Occupation of Palestinian Territories: Non-Violent Options

[dFont70]

Finally, there are alternatives to BDS if you want to do something. The world should be pressuring Israel (and the Palestinians) to conform to International Law. I'm not against boycotts, just the third aim of BDS. Also, the world should encourage and reward all efforts at negotiation and compromise - see TULIP as an example of a way forward on this.

Just to add a little more, he states clearly elsewhere, that "if the refugees were to return, you would not have a two state solution, you would have a Palestine next to Palestine rather than Palestine next to Israel". As a result, this third aim of the BDS contradicts UN Charter on Human Rights, which is the right of self determination. You should know what he is doing. Everyone who backs BDS is going against the UN Charter on Human Rights.

[dFont70]

His third, "most important, fundamental Human Right", Right of Return, is not international law and it doesn't correspond to UN Declaration of Human Rights. He's lying - deliberately. 194 includes all the descendants as well as nationals of foreign nations. None of these groups should be included. This is unfortunately the stumbling block to finding peace in the conflict. If they were taken out of the call, then peace could be reached. He, and the BDS leadership, are using it to warmonger.

Wow, if that's true then my opinion of Motorola just plummeted. Suddenly that Droid Doesn't seem so appealing.
