Bernie Sanders: Don't Count Out anti-Semitism as Factor in Israel Boycott Movement

[azurnoir]

15. Haaretz quite gratuitously misquotes Bernie in the first paragraph and title

here from the transcript of Chris Hayes interview with Bernie Sanders

HAYES: Clinton also – and then I`m going to move to Cuba. But Clinton
also today talked about the boycott, divest, sanction movement, which is an
international movement. Some of the people who advocate those tactics
believe that Israel should be a binational state. They don`t believe in
Zionism. Some are Zionists, but they want to see Israel support a two-
state solution more strenuously, move away from the settlements. She
linked to it racism, to anti-Semitism basically. She said – she connected
BDS to anti-Semiticism. Do you think that`s a fair linkage?

SANDERS: I think there is some of that, absolutely. Look, Israel has done
some bad things. So has every other country on Earth. I think if people
want to attack Israel for their policies, I
think that is fair game but not to appreciate that there is some level of
anti-Semitism around the world involved in that I think would be a mistake.
