The United Electrical Workers (UE), a major American labor union, has lent a hand to the anti-Israel BDS (Boycott, Sanctions and Divestment) movement when it passed a resolution calling for a boycott on Israel over its so-called “apartheid” policies.
During its national convention in Baltimore last month, the United Electrical Workers union (UE) adopted a resolution endorsing the anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement (BDS).
The UE is the first US national union to endorse BDS, which is widely recognized as essentially anti-Semitic since BDS targets only the Jewish state.
The resolution passed by the 30,000-member organization blames the Israel-Palestinian conflict on the creation of the Jewish State.
The problem, is that the resolution does not endorse a “two-state solution” and neglects to condemn the terrorism perpetrated by terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah.
It accuses Israel of racism, genocide, apartheid, ethnic cleansing, and “waging a merciless war on the impoverished population of Gaza.”
All of which is false of course.
