Is it?, I see no real difference? Anti-zionistics is included within antisemitics definition. [1] My government has declared the BDS movement as clear antisemitic. And I fully agree with this. Do we as a *technical* project really need to give these extreme positions and tactics giving an audience? Was it really needed to give this "wanted" "discussion" a specific announcement on DC19? If someone wants to discuss these topics they can simple do it by the normal ways we have for this. Why this needed to happen on one of the last days of DC19 and not intended as a planned session as usual for a conference or right after the decision was made? Why need all the people to put energy on this which already do a lot of other activities in the project, have we really have enough time for such things which are not the core of the project. I'm really sad about some things have moved in about the past 6 months. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boycott,_Divestment_and_Sanctions -- Regards Carsten Schoenert
