French BDS activists lose high court appeal over racism charges Empty French BDS activists lose high court appeal over racism charges

A French appeals court has upheld the hate crime convictions of activists who called for a boycott of Israel during a 2010 demonstration.

The ruling delivered last week by the French Cassation Court concerned seven activists whom a criminal appeals court in Caen in southern France slapped with a $1,000 fine each and a conviction for calling for discriminatory acts during the demonstration outside a supermarket that sold Israeli goods. The seven activists from Caen were prosecuted following the final filing of criminal complaints against them by the National Bureau of Vigilance Against Anti-Semitism, or BNVCA, and two other nonprofits: Alliance France Israel and Lawyers Without Borders, BNVCA wrote on its website.
In a statement about the March 30 ruling, BNVCA called it “a new victory over the illegal BDS movement.”

More and more people are seeing the BDS for what it is, nothing more than a xenophobic hateful group

Well done the French
