(JNS) Lidar Grave-Lazi - During the past school year, pro-Israel groups have documented a change in tactics among BDS groups away from physical and verbal attacks and towards a more sophisticated approach. Jonathan Elkhoury, an Arab-Christian activist who spent two months in the U.S. visiting college campuses on behalf of the pro-Israel Reservists on Duty (RoD), said: "In the past few years, pro-Palestinian activists were very loud and very aggressive....We were often pushed, spat on, verbally and even physically assaulted when visiting campuses." This year, "there were still a few incidents where we were spat on or assaulted, and, of course, there were still 'Apartheid Walls,' but for the most part what we saw was a more calm and cohesive language among all SJP [Students for Justice in Palestine] groups." He added that many campuses had replaced "Apartheid Week" with "Oppression Week," so that rather than single out Israel, they now "tried to frame the narrative that Israel equals white supremacy. And it was clear that this was a well-thought-out strategy directed to coincide with the debate currently going on in the U.S. regarding oppressed minorities." 2019-06-07 00:00:00Full Article
