Scotland’s Green Party has called for a boycott of Israel,
calling it an apartheid state and expressing support for Hamas. In a motion passed at the Scottish Greens conference in Glasgow on Saturday,
members called for Hamas to be removed from an European Union list of

from the non-profit Jewish National Fund to be removed from the charity

Israeli businesses, academic and cultural institutions. It went onto denounce eco-friendly groups in
Israel, adding: “We oppose Green Zionism, the ideology of Green parties in
Israel, which is an attempt to fuse Green values with Zionism”.
The controversial motion appeared to endorse Hamas, which is committed to the
“obliteration” of Israel and talks of the “struggle against the Jews”. The Greens confirmed they would not support
Israel in its current form. The motion stated: "Israel's claim to be a
Jewish and democratic state, the home of all Jews in which non-Jews have
inferior rights constitutes apartheid and is unacceptable. It is not supported
by the Scottish Green Party.” The motion
also demanded that Israel set free “political prisoners”; withdraw its
territory to pre-1967 borders; to surrender territories captured in the Six Day
