Israeli Military Intelligence Targets Foreign Activist Groups 
--------------------------------------------------------------



The Israeli newspaper Haaretz is reporting Israeli military intelligence
has begun collecting information about left-wing organizations abroad
that support the boycott, divestment and sanctions movement. The
military intelligence unit is also said to be collecting information
about groups that attempt to bring war crime or other charges against
high-ranking Israeli officials. One military intelligence official told
the paper: "The enemy changes, as does the nature of the struggle, and
we have to boost activity in this sphere."
