BDS movement revived
The BoycottDivestSanctions campaign against Israeli commerce was created to protest that country's war
on. Palestine. To a world previously largely understanding of the country’s origin as a reaction to its holocaust victimization Israel’s current war on Gaza is
proving massively counter-productive. For many its savage response to the savage HAMAS killings of October 7, 202 is eroding acceptance of the Israeli state.
Among non-partisans Israel is now more isolated than before the war started. Whatever the provocation imitative destruction is not a path forward and will likely only prolong the death cycle. For a better world TorontotheBetter calls for economic responses to
provocation as the way to end murder cycles.A boycott campaign that of the kind that helped to change South Africa in its days of racist apartheid can be effective again in reducing injustice. For the list of companies on the BDS list see www.bdscoalition.ca.
