Israel correctly fears its ‘delegitimizers,’ says leftwing member of Irish parliament

There was a Dublin demonstration the other day demanding the expulsion of the Israeli ambassador, and Richard Boyd Barrett, a member of the Irish parliament, called for boycott, divestment and sanctions, and the breaking off of diplomatic relations with Israel, so as to bring justice to Palestinians. At 5:00 he says:

There’s a particular word that they use about us: the people who don’t just come out for big atrocities. They call us the delegitimizers. This is the term that Israel uses. It’s a very accurate term. Because it’s one thing for them to have to deal with occasional mobilizations against this or that atrocity. What they fear most are the people who say, No no no, this isn’t just about this or that assault on Gaza, Israel is a dysfunctional racist apartheid state that needs to be internationally isolated and dismantled. That is what they fear more than anything else.

And before the usual dance train of hasbaristas comes out to whine I posted an article calling for the end of Israel I have not.

I have posted an article where they are calling for the end of the Israeli apartheid state.

BDS.

2. it appears to me

that he is calling for Israel to be dismantled. "Israel is a dysfunctional racist apartheid state that needs to be internationally isolated and dismantled"

Seems pretty clear to me.
