Ahed, who is 16, previously said if she weren’t forced by the colonization of Palestine into resistance, she’d be a soccer player. Our children are robbed of their right to childhood at such young ages. Mashallah, our resilience. #FreeAhed #FreeNour #FreeNariman#FreePalestine.”

U.S. tax payers dollars fuels this genocide and fuels this ethnic cleansing project.”

Mahmoud continued [00:00:46]: “to establish an ethno-state means that anybody that doesn’t fit in that ethnicity cannot reside in that state, so what does that mean when the majority of indigenous Palestinian population wasn’t Jewish… That means that they have to remove us from our lands by any means necessary, including ethnic cleansing and genocide. U.S. tax payers dollars fuels this genocide and fuels this ethnic cleansing project.”
On November 10, 2017, Mahmoud was featured in a video posted on Facebook by JPSN leading protesters outside of a synagogue in chanting [00:01:44]: “FIGHT THE POWER, TURN THE TIDE, END ISRAELI APARTHEID.”

Unlike other colonial occupations, the creation of both the US and Israel required the systematic ethnic cleansing of indigenous peoples in order to settle a new, foreign population. 70 years later, and Palestinians are still resisting the occupying settler state.”
On April 3. 2018, Mahmoud shared a graphic on Instagram promoting SJPUNF’s Israeli Apartheid Week (IAW) at UNF, writing: “See y’all next week for IAW at UNF! Feel free to message me any questions, will post more info soon ❤️”

SJP
SJP is a student organization engaged in anti-Israel activity on North American college and university campuses.
The first chapter of SJP was founded in 2001 at the University of California at Berkeley by Professor Hatem Bazian. Bazian has spread classic anti-Semitism, reportedly promoted religious anti-Semitism and defended the Hamas terror group. In 2004, Bazian called for “intifada” in America.
SJP organizes anti-Israel campaigns, including running annual Israel Apartheid Weeks, often in collaboration with Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) and Muslim Students Association (MSA) campus chapters.
SJP has been a major force in pushing the anti-Semitic Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement on campuses. Chapters have initiated dozens of BDS resolutions in student governments, which have been proposed on or around Jewish holidays, a time when many Jewish students are off-campus.
SJP activists have reportedly physically assaulted, intimidated and harassed Jewish students, disrupted pro-Israel campus events and demonized pro-Israel campus organizations.
Chapters have often endorsed and campaigned for numerous terrorists and whitewashed terrorism.
BDS
The Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement was founded by Omar Barghouti in 2005 to challenge “international support for Israeli apartheid and settler-colonialism.” BDS is an allegedly “Palestinian-led movement,” although leading BDS activists have admitted [00:01:01] this is not true.
One of the demands of BDS includes [point 3] what is generally known as the “right of return,” a demand discredited as a way to eliminate Israel. Barghouti said the “right of return” is a means to “end Israel’s existence as a Jewish state.”
Barghouti has said that BDS “aims to turn Israel into a pariah state, as South Africa once was.”
In his activism, Barghouti has also said [00:05:55] regarding Israel: “Definitely, most definitely, we oppose a Jewish state in any part of Palestine. No…rational Palestinian, not a sellout Palestinian, will ever accept a Jewish state in Palestine.”
The movement has been linked to numerous terrorist organizations and received a public endorsement from Hamas in 2017.
BDS initiatives include calling on institutions and individuals to divest from Israeli-affiliated companies, promoting academic and cultural boycotts of Israel, and organizing anti-Israel rallies, protests and campaigns.
The movement’s most notable achievement has been the infiltration of university campuses through lobbying for “BDS resolutions.” In these cases, student governments and student groups, backed by their own anti-Israel members and affiliates, have proposed resolutions on some form of boycott of, or divestment from, Israel and Israeli-affiliated entities.
Boycott resolutions, although non-binding, have been passed by student governments on numerous North American campuses.
BDS activity is often aggressive and disruptive. It has been noted that universities that pass BDS resolutions see a marked increase in anti-Semitic incidents on campus. On one campus, when the student government debated a BDS resolution, reports emerged of violent threats against those opposing it.
