New anti-Israel bus ads in St. John’s, Newfoundland were denounced by the head of a Canadian Jewish advocacy organization this week.
The ads, one of which was pictured on the back of a St. John’s bus, feature the phrase “The State of Israel practices apartheid.” They were sponsored by Solidarity With Palestine St. John’s and contain a list of NGOs that have alleged Israel is an “apartheid state,” including Human Rights Watch, B’Tselem, Yesh Din, Amnesty International and Independent Jewish Voices.
The push to label Israel an apartheid state is in full swing. You have to wonder who will seize upon such a label should it become “official.”
