I love this headline from the BDS movement in response to the announcement of the UAE normalizing relations with Israel.

“Dictatorship,” “despotic,” “police state.” It really sounds like the BDSers care about repression, doesn’t it?

Three years ago, the BDS movement attempted to start an anti-normalization initiative – in the Gulf.

They chose that human rights paradigm, Kuwait, to host.

For some reason, the BDSers didn’t have any moral qualms with dealing with the representatives from Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman and – yes – the UAE in 2017.

They have nothing bad to say about any dictatorial, repressive Muslim states today as long as they share BDSers’ insane Jew-hate disguised as “anti-Zionism.”

But as soon as a Muslim state talks to Israel – suddenly, it turns into a terrible violator of human rights.

It’s almost like the BDSers only pretend to care about human rights and they are really just using that topic as a means to attack the one state in the region that actually gives a damn about human rights.
