Minister of Public Security Gilad Erdan praised a bill passed by the French parliament according to which anti-Zionism is a new form of anti-Semitism and asked to keep actively acting against the anti-Israeli BDS movement.
"Anti-Semitic content is published under a false cover of political criticism that poisons that discourse and rules out Israel's existence as a Jewish state," said Erdan. "We expect seeing more practical steps on behalf of the French government against the BDS movement and anti-Semitic activists spreading hate against Israel and the Jews in France."
