South African Model Intimidated by BDS Supporters Due to Her Israel Views
(Jerusalem Post) Ilanit Chernick - South African model Shashi Naidoo wrote on social media that international aid money in Gaza was being used for rockets instead of housing, schools and better infrastructure. Following her comments, Naidoo said Sunday that she received 10 death threats and was dropped by several brands she represented. She then issued a public apology for her comments at a press conference organized by BDS South Africa. South African Jewish Board of Deputies national director Wendy Kahn said, "Because she expressed her opinion [about Israel], they tried to destroy her career and threatened to kill her - she was beaten into submission. She has become a puppet [for BDS]."
