Dem Rep. Says BDS Is ‘Bigoted’ But Can’t Explain Why Tlaib Isn’t Anti-Semitic for Supporting It

‘I believe they have an understanding of what they believe the movement does without fully understanding the impact of it’

EXCERPT:

[clip starts]
PELOSI: "We must also be vigilant against bigoted or dangerous ideologies masquerading as policy and that includes BDS."
[clip ends]
BASH: "I assume you agree with that statement?"
SCHNEIDER: "100 percent."
BASH: "So if BDS is bigoted, are those who support it, your colleagues, bigoted? Or in this case since we’re talking about juice, anti-Semitic?"
SCHNEIDER: "There are a lot of people that support the BDS movement but may not necessarily understand the intent or the expression of how the BDS movement is actually — what it’s fighting for. The fact that it’s not just fighting against the occupation of the West Bank or Gaza, it denies Israel’s connection to the land going back to 1948."
