Amb. Stephen Mull reveals he never heard of the BDS movement during congressional testimony.

WASHINGTON – The man the Obama administration picked to implement its nuclear deal with Iran has displayed a shocking ignorance of Middle East politics.

The Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions, or BDS, movement is widely known as a tool used to wage economic warfare against Israel. It is well-known by everyone involved in the region with the apparent exception of Ambassador Stephen D. Mull, who was given the title of Lead Coordinator for Iran Nuclear Implementation in Sept. 2015.

That was the shocking discovery made by a flabbergasted Rep. Mark Meadows, R-N.C., during Wednesday’s hearing by the House Foreign Affairs Committee on implementation of the Iran nuclear deal and its consequences.

Toward the end of aggressive but routine questioning of the witnesses, Meadows asked Mull if the State Department would advise all 50 states not to join the BDS attack “against our ally, Israel?”

“I’m sorry sir, what? BDS movement? I’m not sure what that is,” replied a visibly confused Mull.

“Boycott … divestment … ” spat out Meadows.

“Um … sir … our relations with … ” a stumbling Mull tried to explain.

But, Meadows cut him off, interjecting, “It’s troubling, sir, you wouldn’t know what that is.”

The congressman’s time for questioning then expired.

A confused expression creased Mull’s face as he shrugged his shoulders in response.
