The first case to cite the UK government’s attempt to quash boycotts of Israel failed in the high court on Tuesday.

A group of anti-Palestinian lawyers brought a case in October against three local councils. They had passed motions supporting the movement to boycott, divest from and sanction Israel, or BDS.

The Palestine Solidarity Campaign said in a statement that it was “victory for the Palestinian-led boycott, divestment and sanctions campaign and for democracy.”

One pleased council leader called the ruling a “victory for free speech.”

Free speech in England ! At last- something to be proud of. Now let'e see the US courts show some nuts.
 
An interesting read for any freedom-of-choice-fan seeking refuge from the posts of the slavering trolls;

BDS is a war Israel can't win

Israel's apologists would call the BDS campaign "immoral", but the slander is laughably false.

If America's obstruction of international law did not shield Israel from accountability, there would be no need for BDS.

The propagandists of Israeli power understand all too well that BDS is the first clear-eyed, internationalist movement of people - not governments, not Western "quartets", not the UN Security Council - to look at Palestine with fresh eyes and accurate information. It demands that until Israel ceases its occupation and oppression of millions of Palestinians, there cannot, and should not, be any "business as usual" with the regime.

That's us, brothers and sisters- a League of International Civilians in the making.
 
When pro-freedom discussions become troll-magnets, what does that say about the troll mentality ?

Shrink a troll today. You know it makes sense.
