If Israel finds a vaccine for coronavirus, boycotters can still take it, Omar Barghouti, founder of the anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement said on Sunday.
Barghouti made the remarks in a live video on the BDS Arabic Facebook page as part of a webinar on “BDS and Anti-normalization: The most important strategies to fight against the deal of the century, even in the time of COVID-19.”
The BDS founder warned that coronavirus cannot be a “honeymoon” for Israel and questioned why the Palestinian Authority hasn’t stopped security cooperation with Israel.
At the same time, he said “if you use medical equipment from Israel – it’s not a problem. Cooperating with Israel against the virus – to begin with, we didn’t consider it normalization.
“The BDS announced normalization criteria long ago,” Barghouti said. “If Israel finds a cure for cancer, for example, or any other virus, then there is no problem in cooperating with Israel to save millions of lives.”
However, Barghouti added, “up until now, we have not been in a situation where we need Israel urgently and no one else can save us but Israel. If that will happen, saving lives is more important than anything else.”

Yesterday: Death to Israel!
Today: Please some of your vaccine our way.
Tomorrow: Death to Israel!
Less of an insane cultist than Democrats, anyway.
but do you have to pay for it?
Only legitimate BDS is one that this country and the world should do against Communist China

Damn funniest thing I read all day:-)
That was like the KKK inviting Black gay hookers over for Easter dinner:-)
The Left/Dems are so shallow. There is absolutely no ethics, character or integrity to them.
So, if so-called “progressives” are such vivid illustrators of the so-called “Goebbels Gap”, i.e.: “The amount of time between something bad happening in the world and someone figuring out a way to blame the Jews for it.”
What then, do we refer to its near reverse in that Israel has something that those with such a raging anti-semitic hate-boner desperately need, and they twist themselves into knots to find a way to justify it without looking like TOO big of hypocrites? :P
