More and more Americans are finding out just what Israel is doing to anyone who is not Jewish. Over 100,000 Christians have already fled the country. The Palestinians, who are Muslim and Christian, have been driven from their land, had over 400 of their villages razed to the ground, 1.5 Palestinians in Gaza are in the world's biggest prison--they are walled in, kept from having the needful things of life like soap, toilet paper, cooking oil. Their electricity and water are rationed. Palestinian children have to swim in a sea of sewage contaminated water because the sewage plants have been damaged by Israeli bombs and the Israelis will not allow the Palestinians to rebuild their demolished homes, schools, or sewage plant. Is it any wonder that people of the world want to boycott Israel: a Jewish state, of, for, by Jews only--nobody else is welcome; just their money?

Often the world portrays Americans as racist hateful people for supporting zionism and Israel. It may be true that America provides a lot of support for Israel but in general Americans are not so racist and would never accept the idea of a superior race today anymore than we did in the 30's.

The problem as you point out is simply that the situition in Israel/occupied Palestine is hidden from the American public. American for the most part know nothing of the occupation of Palestine. The history of the area is never in the news except the zionist version in foreign owned media outlets like FOX news. -

"Israel won one last week in an international human rights court. "

I question the wisdom of this. By legally fighting the Jew-hating scum in this forum, Israel is tacitly recognizing the legitimacy of this "court". In the future, when this court hands out more Jew-hatred disguised as "judicial-decisions", Israel may be forced to comply.
Israel should recognize that there are very, very few true human beings in the world who want Jews to exist. Most are like some of the posters in this thread. "Playing in their sandbox" will gain us nothing but more hatred.-

I wonder how you still managed to stay alive, Cherev, especially considering that you're NOT an Israeli which means that you do not live among Jews. According to your statement above there are very, very few true human beings in the world who want you to exist and it's almost a given that you're constantly surrounded by the rest of the creatures who only pretend to be human and who're willing you to be dead...

So... how you've managed to stay alive, Cherev?

I boycott any product I want...or what would it mean? I would have to spend my money on ATT phones? I think not! And I can buy Mexican and never buy Israel's products...but what would that mean? Surely it is not against the law...especially if I do not support slavery or such extremes in servitude.

This decision raises a fairly valid point. Isn't any boycott an act of discrimination? It's the specific decision to target a company (or group of companies) for their beliefs or other characteristics unrelated to the product itself.

In 1933, the World Jewish Congress declared an economic boycott of Germany and vowed to "DESTROY GERMANY." Why? Because Adolph Hitler had fired most of the Jews who worked in government positions. He did that because the majority of them were Communists and supported the mostly Jewish-run government of Soviet Russia. Germany and Russia had a long history of antagonism toward each other. So it was okay for the Jews of the world to boycott Germany--and to try to destroy it economically, but it's not okay for people of the world who have a conscience to boycott Israel for its atrocious behavior toward the Palestinian Christians and Muslims? Tit for tat. I will never buy an Israeli product if I know it comes from Israel. A racist bigoted state or nation does not deserve my respect or consideration. Especially here in the USA where we welcome all races and religions and try to live in tolerance of each other's differences.
