Boycotts of Israel are the refusal and calls to refusal of having commercial or social dealings with Israel in order to influence Israel's practices and policies by means of using economic pressure.[1] The specific objective of Israel boycotts varies; the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement calls for boycotts of Israel "until it meets its obligations under international law",[2] and the purpose of the Arab League's boycott of Israel was to prevent Arab states and others from contributing to Israel's economy.[3] Israeli officials have characterized the BDS movement as antisemitic.[4]
