On Thursday, Omar Barghouti, a Qatari-born Palestinian-Arab best known as a co-founder and international leader of the inherently anti-Semitic “Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions” movement that incites economic warfare and sundry other forms of “lawfare” against the world’s only Jewish state, attempted to board a flight from Israel’s Ben Gurion International Airport to the United States. Barghouti was scheduled to make stops at various U.S. universities, meet with federal lawmakers in Washington, D.C., and also attend his daughter’s wedding.
But in a stunning move, U.S. immigration authorities did not allow Barghouti, who has the same name and comes from the same family as someone described by the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs as “a famous Hamas leader in the West Bank,” to board the U.S.-bound flight.
