INTELLIGENCE FILE: Monitoring the boycotters
A senior Israeli military source revealed recently that a special unit inside the Research Division of Military Intelligence has been assigned to monitor the activities of the BDS movement.
The unit was created as a result of lessons learned from the Mavi Marmara incident.
In May 2010 a fleet of six boats organized by pro-Palestinian groups sailed from Turkish ports in a concerted effort to lift the siege of Gaza. While the activists with various nationalities aboard five boats surrendered to the demands of the Israel Navy and stopped their voyage, the Mavi Marmara crew and passengers refused to obey the order.
