Hat tip Legal Insurrection
"Israel’s Ministry of Strategic Affairs released a report titled Terrorists in Suits: The Ties Between NGOs promoting BDS and Terrorist Organizations that shows operational and ideological ties between the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement, or BDS, and Palestinian terrorist organisations, including Hamas, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad."
The Israeli Ministry of Strategic Affairs has issued a 79-page report outlining the connections between organizations involved in the Boycott, Divest and Sanctions movement (BDS) against the Jewish state of Israel. This report is linked and summarized by Legal Insurrection, the blog of Professor William Jacobson of the Cornell School of Law.

This report is hardly surprising.
The BDS movement, especially active on American university campuses, represents itself as a non-violent effort to achieve justice and human rights for Palestinians. In reality, it is a concentrated effort to discredit and eventually destroy the Jewish state of Israel. It's co-founder and most visible representative, Omar Barghouti, represents himself as a "human rights activist". Having seen this character speak twice in California, I consider him a fraud.
The report mentions ex-skyjacker Leila Khaled as one of the figures whom these "human rights" organizations meet with regularly. Apparently, that would include San Franciscoi State University professor Rabab Abdulhadi. She reportedly met with Khaled in 2014 during a SFSU-paid trip that was obstensibly to attend a conference in Beirut. Instead, Abdulhadi reportedly went to the West Bank and met with Khaled and other questionable characters.
At this point, governments who list organizations like Hamas, Hizbollah, and others as terror groups, should investigate the connections that their own NGOs have with these organizations.
