If you are surprised #BlackLivesMatter joined war on Israel, you haven't been paying attention
[LI] For years we have been documenting the efforts by anti-Israel activists to stoke racial hatred of Israel through the concept of "intersectionality" ‐ the notion that all revolutionary struggles, particularly against racism, are connected.

The almost exclusive focus, however, is Israel. Hence, Israel is falsely blamed for local police shootings of blacks in the U.S. based upon false and misleading claims I debunked in my post, Exposed: Years-long effort to blame Israel for U.S. police shootings of blacks.

The movement to connect Ferguson-to-Palestine launched after the Michael Brown shooting, and has been a singular focus of Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) activists ever since. Anti-Israel activists played an active role in stoking violence in Ferguson, as I documented in Intifada Missouri ‐ Anti-Israel activists may push Ferguson over the edge and Anti-Israel activist still stoking fires in #Ferguson.

A good history also is in How The Black Lives Matter and Palestinian Movements Converged.

No other country except Israel is used as pervasively as the connector for intersectionality. It’s a seedy tactic meant to exploit domestic U.S. racial tensions having nothing to do with Israel, and to turn those tensions into racial hatred of the supposedly "white" Israel. Underlying it all are anti-Semitic stereotypes of omnipresent Jewish manipulation, such as those spread by Oberlin College professor Joy Karega.

There have been successes at the campus level, such as at Oberlin, of inserting anti-Israel language into list of Demands from Black Lives Matter protesters.

Many of the leading Black Lives Matters leaders are also anti-Israel activists. They receive encouragement and support from people like Marc Lamont Hill for linking Israel to problems of black in the U.S.:

#3 Dream Defenders based in Florida was one of the 1st. The person who heads this up is 100% Soros funded. They've organized trips to Israel to train with the local leftists/Palestinians on the anti-police/security forces tactics they use.

#4 the concept of "intersectionality" ‐ the notion that all revolutionary struggles, particularly against racism, are connected.

Also known as Blair's Law - the ongoing process by which the world's multiple idiocies are becoming one giant, useless force.
