Debating Against BDS-and Winning – by Alan M. Dershowitz | Gatestone Institute
When I was invited to debate in favor of the motion „Is BDS Wrong?“ at the Oxford Union, I fully expected to lose the vote of the 250 or so students and faculty who are members of the oldest debate society in the world. „Israel always loses at Oxford,“ I was warned by colleagues who had debated other Israel-related issues. Nonetheless I decided to participate, hoping to change some minds.
I proposed as my opponent Omar Barghouti, the Qatari-born, Israeli-educated, co-founder and spokesperson of the BDS movement, but he refused to debate me. The Union then selected Noura Erekat, a Palestinian-American human rights attorney, who has been a vocal supporter of BDS.
