Mahmoud Abbas and the Palestinian Authority oppose the people who claim to be working for them. They find that the “heroic” Boycott, Divest, Sanction (BDS) activists are harming their peace efforts and making them look bad. The idealistic American students didn’t consult with the people they are “helping.” Or else they don’t care. ?
First, their interference: The BDSers are against ANY contact, including peace talks. And peace talks are PA policy. Second...
A PA official in Ramallah explained that BDS and its followers make the Palestinians appear as if they are all radicals who are only interested in boycotting and delegitimizing Israel. "This goes against the PLO's official policy, which is to seek a peace agreement with Israel based on the two-state solution," he said.
