Congress passes law targeting boycotts of Israel
It's seems that (TPA) Trans-Pacific Partnership Bill will protect Israel against any trade embargoes! I wonder what else lurks in that Bill!

TPA, which passed through the Senate and landed on the president's desk, includes roughly 150 trade negotiating objectives - requirements of the president, as mandated by Congress, to raise specific US priorities in its negotiations.
One of those objectives is to push back against efforts within the EU to sponsor the growing Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel.
"Something this significant only comes around when TPA comes around," Rep. Peter Roskam (R-Illinois) said in an interview at his office in the Rayburn House Office Building.
