Prominent American Actor, James Wood, took to Twitter to urge Congress to pass a resolution against the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement, the Jerusalem Post reported.

Wood responded to a tweet that announced Austria’s parliament had just unanimously adopted a resolution condemning and opposing BDS activities against Israel by saying “This is the kind of resolution I would hope we would see in our American Congress.”
