Ambassador Dermer has chutzpah

Who knew that Ron Dermer, Israeli Ambassador to the United States, was such a funny and ironic guy?

Here is Dermer's tweet:

This year I decided to send a gift for the holiday that would also help combat BDS pic.twitter.com/43haadtzvm

Ambassador Dermer sent holiday greetings with gifts around town, including to the White House. The gift Dermer sent was packages of products made in Judea and Samaria - items that the BDS movement targets and that the EU has decided to label for easy identification (for potential boycotting).

Takes a bit of chutzpah.

Had he been in the EU it would make some sense. Sending it to US diplomats and politicians, people who have opposed the BDS and the labeling movements, makes less sense.

Still - it takes a bit of chutzpah.
