Interesting article. If BDS were adopted by the Labour Party there could be no Labour Friends of Israel and relations with pro-Israel organisations such as the Board of Deputies would be problematic but certainly oppositional on the issue of Israel. The same would apply to equivalent institutions in the US.

If support for the state of Israel itself or support for Jewish institutions supporting the state of Israel are seen as intrinsic to Jewish identity then BDS is intrinsically antisemitic.

I’ve deleted my previous posts to this site. This is because I want to focus my writing around the fifty-two essays that I’ve undertaken to write.

So far there are three essays. The first I and I is more personal, the second, Shadow Commander and the third, A Crisis of Antirationalism are political. The intention is to present more philosophical perspectives on politics and, at the same time, make the effort to sharpen my own writing skills.

In addition to the fifty-two essays I will write one short blog post each day.
