There is an incredible amount of fake news being spread regarding Israel's fight against the anti-Semitic #BDS campaign and the case of #LaraAlqasem. It's time to set the record straight. Here are the facts: 1/5
Israel, like every democracy, has the right to prevent the entry of foreign nationals, especially those working to harm the country. Therefore we work to prevent the entry of those who promote the anti-Semitic BDS campaign, which calls for Israel's destruction #LaraAlqasem 2/5
#LaraAlqasem was President of a chapter of one of the most extreme and hate-filled BDS groups in the US- the SJP. SJP chapters have repeatedly engaged in anti-Semitic and violent activity with the goal of bullying and silencing students simply for their support of Israel. 3/5
Ms. Alqasem has changed her story several times since arriving in Israel. She erased her social media accounts- why?
The accusation that she is incarcerated in Israel is blatantly false. She is free to return to her home in the US anytime she wishes. #LaraAlqasem 4/5

Israel has a vibrant academic community which draws many thousands of students from around the world. BDS seeks to undermine academic freedom. We'll continue to expose the lies of the BDS, including regarding the prevention of entry of those who promote it #LaraAlqasem 5/5
