It stands for Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions against Israel. My niece has been heavily involved as a leader through college and beyond, to the point where her name is on a corporate list of "don't hire this person ever."

Indeed. I was once young and idealistic, so I get it! I'm more worried about my fully grown sisters. They've seen enough of life to know that there are some things they don't know. They think Biden should be on their side calling for a ceasefire - having no idea that hugging Bibi bought the Palestinians a ton of time while Biden negotiated for time and aid. But they somehow think a line in the sand would help, somehow.
