A Successful Strategy Against BDS


(National Interest) Benjamin Weinthal and Asaf Romirowsky - Dallas-based banking giant Comerica in May closed the account of the International Association of Democratic Lawyers (IADL) that wages legal and economic warfare against America and Israel, after Texas passed an anti-BDS law.

Europe has made a significant effort to shut down bank accounts and freeze the assets of BDS perpetrators. Banks across Germany, Austria, Ireland and France have pulled the plug on BDS accounts. Benjamin Weinthal is a fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. Asaf Romirowsky is executive director of Scholars for Peace in the Middle East.
