>The anti-Israel activist who helped convince New Zealand singer Lorde to cancel a concert in Tel Aviv has defended her actions, saying that exclusion was the only way to pressure Israel’s government into making a change.
>New Zealanders Nadia Abu-Shanab and Justine Sachs — Palestinian and Jewish, respectively — wrote an open letter last week on the website, The Spinoff, saying that Lorde’s scheduled performance in Israel “sends the wrong message.”
>In an interview with the Hebrew-media Walla website published Monday, Sachs said that even she was surprised at the success of her campaign.
>“This reached much further than I imagined,” said Sachs, who has been a fan of the singer for some time. “We asked Lorde to not break the boycott and to not support the occupation of Palestinian lands, the destruction of Palestinian lands, homes and lives and I am proud of her brave response that testifies that she has an open progressive mind, is concerned about social justice.”
>"NEW YORK — The Union for Reform Judaism, the North American Reform Jewish movement, the largest movement in Jewish life today and HIAS, the 130 year old global refugee agency of the American Jewish community, are urging the Israeli government to re-examine its asylum policy. They were joined by IMPJ, the Israel Movement for Reform and Progressive Judaism."
>"“We are deeply concerned because Israel currently accepts less than 1% of refugee claims. In other developed countries, 82% of Eritrean applicants and 68% of Sudanese applicants are recognized as refugees. We recognize that, with over 5,500 asylum seekers per 1,000,000 population, Israel has had to deal with more asylum seekers than the vast majority of other democracies. We understand that finding an appropriate solution for all the asylum seekers in Israel makes it desirable to enlist resettlement assistance from additional countries in the developed world. However, we are concerned about the disparity between the approval rates of asylum requests in Israel and in other countries,” said Mark Hetfield, president and CEO of HIAS."
>".....Most of the groups supported by Soros have been the targets of Netanyahu’s NGO law, passed a year ago, which mandates special reporting requirements for organizations that get most of their funding from foreign governments."
>".....But in the midst of the controversy over Hungary, one member of Netanyahu’s Likud party, Miki Zohar, said he plans to introduce an Israeli “Soros law,” in which “any person donating to organizations acting against Israel will not be allowed to donate to any organization or nonprofit association in Israel.”

What's going on in all of these kerfuffles, with the most recent one being the Jewish activist who teamed up with a Pally to boycott Israel in the name of Social Justice? Are these all 6 Million Dimensional oven-dodging moves deliberately designed to confuse the worldview of the Sup Forumstard?

You want Diaspora Jews to serve Israel's interests out of tribal loyalty, then wonder why you can't control them.

The jew is trying to confuse us and getting us off the track by feigning that some are against israel. It's all part of the plan.
