Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) is a Palestinian-led movement for freedom, justice and equality. BDS upholds the simple principle that Palestinians are entitled to the same rights as the rest of humanity.
Amnesty said the US smears are "particularly hypocritical and deceitful coming from an administration that has emboldened neo-Nazis, white supremacists and other groups who advocate violence and discrimination"
The court ruled that by denying public space simply because it is opposed to BDS, the City of Munich violated the freedom of opinion and other fundamental rights.
Only a fraction of the hundreds of bills lawmakers in the US have introduced targeting advocacy for Palestinian rights have become law because of strong grassroots and civil liberties opposition.
