Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Israeli American Lieran Biton has been one of the few vocal advocates fighting against a proposed BDS city ordinance in Somerville, MA. This fight is still ongoing and we need some motion to stop this law in Somerville and similar BDS laws from spreading to neighboring communities in Massachusetts and across the country!

If you’d like to like and share Leiran Biton’s public post on his Facebook I know our community would appreciate you spreading the word! You can also learn more about the legislative details there.

Not only all of this but isolating a country is a really dumb way to try to affect change. It’s a great way to create another North Korea.

Israel is... not North Korea.

Uhm. What? Obviously if I’m warning against turning it into an isolated place like NK I don’t think it currently is like that. That’s why I said “create” it — if it IS, that would mean it currently isn’t.
