The Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) campaign against the Israeli regime is achieving great success. The BDS is a global campaign which uses economic and political pressure on Israel to comply with the stated goals of the movement - the end of Israeli occupation and colonization of Arab land, full equality for Arab-Palestinian citizens, and respect for the right of return of Palestinian refugees. Increasingly civil society organizations and universities around the world are implementing BDS, as do a number of states. Two of Europe's biggest financial institutions have boycotted transactions with Israeli companies involved in construction of illegal settlements.
