An investigative report presented by Kalina Ann on Carajo Stream revealed concerning connections between Palestinian groups such as the "Argentine Committee of Solidarity with the Palestinian People" and networks of Iranian terrorism in Argentina.
Additionally, the video also details how these groups are influencing leftist protests against the government of Javier Milei in Argentina.
The report points to an articulation between national organizations and international networks, with ideological and personal connections to sectors of the Argentine left, Kirchnerism, and even groups noted for their closeness to the Iranian terrorist regime. These groups also actively participate in marches against Milei.
The report
According to the analysis presented, the Argentine Committee of Solidarity with Palestine is the main local articulator of the international BDS movement (Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions) in the country, a global campaign that seeks to sanction the State of Israel and support Palestinian terrorism.
In Argentina, this committee has included figures such as Tilda Rabi, a Palestinian-Chilean activist; José Schulman, a violent leader linked to Kirchnerism; and Jorge Rachid, a Peronist militant with openly pro-Palestinian terrorism positions.
Also included is Beinusz Szmukler, a lawyer with a strong presence in leftist spaces and close to the union leader Hugo Godoy of the Central Workers' Union of Argentina (CTA). According to the investigation, Godoy has promoted activities linked to the BDS movement even in the Argentine parliamentary sphere, with the participation of leftist and Kirchnerist legislators.
The relationship with Iran
The first major public action of BDS in Argentina dates back to 2016, during an international conference with leaders from different countries. This was covered by Annur TV, a media outlet identified with the Iranian regime and critical of Milei's government.

Annur TV is owned by the Argentine Islamic Organization, which has among its representatives Mahmud Aid, an Argentine who converted to Islam and was mentioned in the report by prosecutor Alberto Nisman for his role in the AMIA bombing.
Nisman indicated that Mahmud had been appointed as the leader of a mosque by Moshen Rabbani, an Iranian official mentioned as one of the intellectual authors of the attack. Furthermore, the mosque led by Mahmud Aid is said to have played a fundamental role in carrying out the attack.
Another key figure identified is Agustín Bid, founder of the "Arab Culture Club," from where BDS campaigns are promoted and figures such as Hasan Nasrallah, the deceased leader of the terrorist group Hezbollah, are defended, who is also charged by Argentine justice as an intellectual actor in the 1994 AMIA attack.
Kalina Ann's investigation raises serious doubts about the true nature of pro-Palestinian activism in Argentina, connecting its deployment with networks that not only exceed the local level but are also imbued with extremist discourses and links to international actors implicated in terrorist acts.
