Boycotting the boycotters

"Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo of New York ordered agencies under his control on Sunday to divest themselves of companies and organizations aligned with a Palestinian-backed boycott movement against Israel."
"... Mr. Cuomo set executive-branch and other state entities in opposition to the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement, or B.D.S
“We cannot allow that to happen,” the governor said, adding that,

"If you boycott against Israel, New York will boycott you.”

"Several states have moved to support Israel and prevent their governments and agencies from doing business with companies or individuals that endorse the boycotts."
"Mr. Cuomo’s signed the executive order just before he marched in the Celebrate Israel parade in New York."
