Occupy Oakland supports Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement against Israel

Taking time out of its busy schedule of rioting and calling police "monsters," Occupy Oakland is attacking Israel.

The Occupy movement loves to hate Israel.

From the Jewish Telegraphic Agency:

The Oakland, Calif., chapter of the Occupy movement overwhelmingly endorsed a proposal in support of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement against Israel.

According to Twitter accounts by pro-Palestinian activists pushing the proposal, the statement won nearly unanimous backing in a vote Wednesday following a brief discussion. A lengthy statement on the Occupy Oakland website attacked U.S. aid to Israel and suggested that Israel had "prodded" the United States into the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Here is that statement, a rambling one, from Occupy Oakland.
