"Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton spoke at an annual conference held by the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) and praised students at colleges and universities who are on the front lines of the battle to oppose the alarming boycott, divestment and sanctions movement known as BDS.
The part of the speech on BDS was specifically directed at young people attending the pro-Israel lobby groups conference, and it received roaring applause.
During her speech, Clinton declared, Particularly at a time when antisemitism is on the rise across the world, especially in Europe, we must repudiate all efforts to malign, isolate, and undermine Israel and the Jewish people.
We have to be united in fighting back against BDS, Clinton argued. Many of its proponents have demonized Israeli scientists and intellectuals, even students.
She added, To all the college students who may have encountered this on campus, I hope you stay strong. Keep speaking out. Dont let anyone silence you, bully you, or try to shut down debate, especially in places of learning like colleges and universities.
