one of the few tools left for those who oppose the criminal state of israel;
In NAACP v. Claiborne Hardware Co. (1982), a landmark civil rights
case, the Supreme Court unanimously upheld the organization’s right to
boycott white-owned businesses in Mississippi – protesting against
segregation and racial injustice, its constitutional right.
The ruling stressed that states may not prohibit peaceful advocacy of
a politically-motivated boycott, what First Amendment rights are all
about.
Yet 28 states enacted legislation, restricting or banning individuals
or entities doing business with the state if advocate boycotting
Israel.
Their measures defy the Supreme Court’s ruling and fundamental First
Amendment right of free expression — wanting the constitutionally
protected right to boycott or otherwise publicly criticize Israel
delegitimized, falsely equating it to anti-Semitism.
Only eight US states so far haven’t introduced or considered a measure in some form against boycotting the Jewish state. … https://alethonews.com/2019/07/20/boycotting-israel-a-constitutional-right-and-personal-obligation/
