(CAMERA) A New York Times editorial and a number of other media outlets claim that Israel's new law restricting access to the country for some of those advocating a boycott of the Jewish state bars entry to anyone who "supports" BDS. In fact, the law is worded much more narrowly, and refers not to supporters but rather anyone "who knowingly issues a public call for boycotting Israel that, given the content of the call and the circumstances in which it was issued, has a reasonable possibility of leading to the imposition of a boycott - if the issuer was aware of this possibility." The U.S. has long had similar restrictions. Section 212(a) of the Immigration and Nationality Act says that an alien "whose entry or proposed activities in the United States the Secretary of State has reasonable ground to believe would have potentially serious adverse foreign policy consequences for the United States is inadmissible." That's much broader than Israel's language. It also bars those who would break laws for the purpose of "opposition to...the United States." 2017-03-17 00:00:00Full Article
