#2 Gromky, that was a different expression of the same underlying cause -- LMD*.

#3 Actually, I very much disbelieve that this process is actually happenening in the BDS movement: it is predominantly populated by leftists and "liberals" whose capacity for honest self-assessment and self-criticsm is practically nonexistent. "Soul-searching" is a pose they take on to head-fake conservatives, not something they are capable of doing when it comes to certain subjects. The conservative mental maps have regions marked "unknown", while the liberal mental maps have regions marked "Here be dragons!"

And yah, I thought it was referring to Bush Derangement Syndrome myself.

#4 The movement’s duplicity and disingenuousness in hiding the fact that a large part of its membership “wants to eliminate Israel” made it impossible for BDS to reach a broad public.

Um. I thought that was openly the goal, thus the reason it is rejected by a broad public. So I agree, Ptah: I think by "soul-searching" they mean "re-branding."
