Why to Boycott Israel

There is no longer any doubt that the Israeli brutalities against their neighbours and brothers must end in our lifetimes. We, the people of the free and peaceful world owe it to the dead, as well as those who WILL die (and there's nothing we can do) simply for being born arab. If you can step away from the side of the murderer and the evildoer, then you are a good person. Join me.


How to Boycott Israel

globally/internationally, go for these companies first (stop buying ANYTHING from them and cut all ties until they cut all israeli suppliers)...

Lloyds TSB bank (not a supplier issue, actually cuts funds to gaza) I have just spoken to someone to arrange moving my own business money out of Lloyds, where it has been. It's no security leak to say so now, of course. My money's going elsewhere. To an account which I can be sure will never need boycotting!

(ones in bold - go for them hard and fast - they are big ones - make the big ones crumble and submit first, rapid decline in sales, huge destruction of product movement, a kick in the ghoulies of severe magnitude. others will follow in droves as the big ones fall down on their knees before CONSUMER DEMAND)

DON'T TAKE FREE OR "CHEAP" THINGS FROM THEM EITHER - suffocate their income completely, by cutting their promotion supply line too, until they sever bonds with ALL israel-based suppliers other than in "palestinian territories"



Help spread the Boycott


(BE STRONG - STOP BUYING ANYTHING FROM THESE PEOPLE -
YOUR MONEY HAS HELPED MURDER PEOPLE).

Jews must Boycott Israel too:

War crimes, the massacre of civilians, are carried out in the name of Judaism, it is the duty of any Jew who respects the heritage of their forefathers, to stand up, even taller than anyone else, in the face of this disgusting inhumanity we see in Israel today, we have seen yesterday and will see again tomorrow.

I have been to the future and distant past numerous times since the previous post

these are other companies who, in the future, ended up having been forced into submission by consumer boycotts until they ceased using any israeli suppliers, which coerced the entire western, eastern, northern, southern and even off-planet (just kidding, it wouldn't take THAT long) markets into starving israel of all consumer money, of all government aid, of all foreign/international/collective aid, until Israeli people's lives and businesses were totally reduced to nothing and the only choice they had was to accept defeat and dismantle their military, dismantle their government, create a one state solution run by the people who are native to that land, live within society properly or not at all (latter by immigrating to where they think people are human - apartheid people of s.africa who still think black people are dogs {i have known one very closely} tend to leave s.africa and move to places like the balkans or britain. maybe even israel.)

also...

i'm heading to another timezone now where it will become clear if the MOD's procurement department also came under adequate pressure to boycott israeli suppliers and any israeli arms deals

no doubt 1000s of UK weapons companies are buying from israeli firms. i'll have to find out how that will end up being stopped also. the tardis is flying at a cool 0.27% CTR and a breezing 3p a click... my profit-counters estimated 8k per month at the end of constructing the myriad clones of the tiny profitable instrument i've got working like an infinity machine.

I am also going to go to all 10,000 UK forums, 50,000 US forums and 150,000 global blogs, and then more, twice as much again if i can find it, and maybe even the dreaded social networks and global (legit 'nonspam' mailing list zone - i.e. opt-in) and create a mass flood from all sides to the campaign to boycott ALL commercial ties with Israel and its people.

I have signed up 2 years now to my new job. Having flown around the future I've noticed that it will have taken me 2 years to do enough damage to the Israeli economy for the entire thing to be at the mercy of 100s of millions of people who are all of one decided mind. Hopefully no one will notice that I was there. The fact is people will then say of me now that this is arrogance, but it's insane. You don't fight wars without having a decided plan to win, a strategy to conquer, so if I fight this WITHOUT taking it as a read assumption that no one else, the bleeding hearts associations, the governments, the pub-politicians, is going to save any child's life in gaza, then i'm not doing it the right way, probably the same as everyone else.

It's 2 more years of slavery... but it's a good idea, you have to give it that. And if I'm really on 100k+ a year, that's not a bad salary from my bosses. I did promise 10k of that to the little mites. The children of palestine may still die tomorrow, but before too much time has passed, I am confident I can get enough people to be blitzkrieged into KNOWING WHAT TO DO to end it EASILY... and that's all it takes. Well - I have about a dozen different timezones of palestinian israeli consumer boycott info to study and also the entire history of the rise and fall of apartheid in south africa. it'll take me about 10,000 years, but i may come back previously in time and post before this one. you'll never know because i'll just have altered time and everything else will fall into sync.. (well it's nice to dream) (we are the music makers, we are the dreamers of dreams - and we can make people change their tune, when we work in teams that only grow outwards).

hamas ended up (through winning fair democratic elections across "Palestine" after the dismantling of the israeli-apartheid regime) running all of what was formerly called "Israel" but eventually was called "Palestine" - and even the many jews lived there happily under Hamas rule. Fatah and other opposition parties obviously also came into power at different times in Palestine's golden history, where Ra Ra El... well, that's another story.

If they had done this 3 days ago, I'd have never have thought of my plan. But I am not going to stop. Obviously what my boycott is here to end is the right of israel to walk into palestinian land and kill people for a few weeks, then pull out and call themselves peacemakers, and build walls, settlements, towns where even women and men can't walk on the same side of the road (my friend the shop lifter lives there).

Israel went way too far and triggered this. I shall not rest until Jerusalem is a green and pleasant land. (I've just dug up my copy of gimme hope joanna, and free nelson mandela is already on my itunes) (i also have a great tune called Jerusalem - by a great classic major reggae-ska icon, long ago, and i'll transcribe it - the lyrics-genericrubbish.com sites don't even have an attempt) (in perl there are assertions and atoms - this turns out to be crucial)

This is an amazing version of an amazing tune

I think it needs to be recorded for palestine by a lot of artists and turned into a song for gaza.

spread the idea - musicians need to do a song for palestine

MONEY needed to rebuild hospitals, schools, and other buildings blown to smithereens and washed in arab blood

As the bloodshed has continued in Gaza, public opinion in Israel has remained firmly supportive of the offensive against Hamas.
But the harrowing pictures of the aftermath of the conflict have raised a clamour of criticism elsewhere in the world and divided Jewish opinion overseas.
On Thursday, the Council of Jewish Communities in Morocco declared itself "in solidarity with the innocent victims who are suffering in Gaza".
It described the residents of Gaza as "sitting targets... suffering under the bombs, the widespread destruction, the lack of food and water..." and added: "The pictures of Palestinian children torn from life are unbearable."
The director of the Foundation of Judeo-Moroccan Cultural Heritage, Simon Levy, described the killing in Gaza as unjustified and "more than deplorable".
"It is not like that, that I see Judaism," he said.
'Exploiting guilt'
The idea that the assault in Gaza is tarnishing the image of Judaism internationally has been echoed by Jewish protesters in non-Arab countries.
Last week, a group of eight Canadian-Jewish women occupied the Israeli consulate in Toronto.
One of the organisers Judy Rebick, a lecturer at Ryerson University, said: "There are many Jews across the world who are ashamed and don't want this massacre to take place in our name."
My grandmother did not die to provide cover for Israeli soldiers murdering Palestinian grandmothers in Gaza


Sir Gerald Kaufman

The following day there were similar protests by Jewish women in Montreal and Boston.
Some of the strongest language elsewhere has come from British Jews, notably Gerald Kaufman - a leading figure in the Labour Party.
He accused Israel of exploiting the guilt felt by non-Jews in order to continue its offensive in Gaza.
Sir Gerald, who has been a stern critic of Israel in recent years, said: "The present Israeli government ruthless and cynically exploits the continuing guilt from Gentiles over the slaughter of Jews in the Holocaust as justification for their murder of Palestinians."
In a speech in the House of Commons, Sir Gerald recalled how his grandmother was shot by invading German troops as she lay ill in bed.
In a stinging rebuke, he said: "My grandmother did not die to provide cover for Israeli soldiers murdering Palestinian grandmothers in Gaza."
'Inexcusable'
Sir Gerald's remarks have drawn a sharp response from the Board of Deputies of British Jews, which insisted that while there was rightly a large spectrum of opinion within the British Jewish community, the "overwhelming majority" agreed that "Israel has been subjected to the most deplorable attacks from Hamas over the last eight years and that a response was necessary".
Mark Frazer, of the board's defence and group relations division, said: "The Holocaust reference is used because of the horrific images and experiences it conjures up for the Jewish community.
Protests backing Israel have also been held across the UK

"Jews such as Gerald Kaufman feel that because of their Jewish identity they have the right to berate Israel and her supporters with this comparison without any concern for the truth.
"It is quite simply inexcusable."
However, Sir Gerald is by no means alone in stern criticism of Israel's action.
In a letter to the Guardian last week, a group of 78 people describing themselves as being "of Jewish origin" spoke of "Israeli aggression," likening it to apartheid South Africa and calling for "a programme of boycott, disinvestment and sanctions".

Which side has more power to boycott? I mean - if the world "boycotts" hamas... what will happen? So who will win? It's not so hard to see.

Serious balls - and looks like a lot better tactic than firing rockets..

There's another one you'll like - this girl I think about 6 years old - it's from a year or two ago. She's the most ballsy little girl I've ever met - I would like to shake her mother and father's hands. This is the most amazing and inspiring kid you'll ever see. I will dig up that vid somehow and show you. Obviously it's many months old and it is amongst bookmarks probably no longer even on my machine, backed up on disks that my drive won't even read any more, so I'll have to just hunt, but I'm good at that. When i choose to find someone, I find them. I even got the number of James Reed, the CEO of Reed employment - i was think about sharing my Jarvis experience with him, but I'm waiting. When I have already got a huge boycott going on and have adequate power to convince Reed that he should talk to me personally, I'll phone. No rich man answers their own phone except the one their wife has, and generally speaking hardly any one will have that. So though I have his number, I still need financial clout to be able to talk to him on it.

Anyway. That little girl - she's the greatest. I would like to meet her one day. She's really tough. I am sure when I get to Palestine one day I'll meet a lot of people I really like being with. And my name is obviously a lot more common there than say in Clapham. Maybe if I was nearer Edgware Road and Whitechapel I'd be in a world where Shams isn't a unqiue identifier!

Here she is, the future most senior person (other than me) in my entire multi billion pound corporation that I'm gonna finish making for myself using nothing but a tardis and a biro.

I'm off to rip that right now. don't wanna lose that footage again.

No doubt about that. It seems fairly obvious the only reason that girl didn't take a rubber bullet at close range was the presence of that Korean television crew. If Hamas had half a brain, they'd immediately stop shooting rockets and hiding in mosques/residences, and use that money instead to ensure the press was there to report what would then be a very one sided story. It might come across as OJ Simpson crying foul play for a while, but it wouldnt take too long for people to come around.

Edit: Oh yah, it would also help if they quit crying death to Israel. There is something about a neighbor with a gun who says he wants to kill you that is very unsettling, even if he isn't actively shooting bullets at your house.

cwbn, this is an example (below) of why people want to kill israelis. I am not really interested in political ideas on this forum, more in aspects of psychology etc. the real political debaters are elswwhere, and they are producing way more sophisticartesd arguments (other than some of the neanderthals) than i have yet so eee from you...

DR NASEZ ABU SHAABAN - in Gaza

I have been working here for 25 years and I have never seen anything like this before. I have never seen this number of injuries or such severe injuries among civilians, children two and three years old.

We absolutely do not have the capacity to treat the numbers of patients we are receiving. That is why the minute the border opens with Egypt, we try to send the most difficult cases through for treatment and keep the less difficult cases here.


It is a disaster here. Entire families are suffering having had their houses collapse on top of them, some of them have been shelled, others are burned, it really is a disaster.
We have been receiving a very high number of patients with a strange burn, completely different to the burns we are used to managing, very deep burns with a very offensive, chemical odour coming from the wound site.

The wound keeps smoking for a long time. When we try to wash it with saline and water, some reaction happens, the skin bubbles and the patient complains of extreme pain.

In some cases there is then severe destruction of the tissue and we have had to amputate whole limbs.

We don't know what type of treatment should be used. The major problem is we don't know the kind of weapon that has been used.

We have a visiting doctor from Norway who thinks it might be white phosphorus but we are not sure. Even if it is, we have no experience of it and do not know how to deal with wounds it has caused.

We are asking for the help of all physicians across the world - what type of weapons cause these injuries and how do you deal with them? Is the chemical odour coming from the wound harmful to the medics?

What are the long term repercussions? We have no idea. What can we say? We try to reassure patients but we do not know.

I haven't slept a minute for the past 36 hours. I am not an administrator, I do not know how long we can continue to treat people in these conditions.

I would work forever with even the bare minimum of supplies. I will work as long as the shelling continues because I have to.

that's from the BBC.

But as I said, I'm only interested here in the form of my material. The content is being put together by some of those who did their thing to end South African Apartheid in its day. Very fierce individuals. There's a LOT of documentation about Israeli war crimes just from the last 3 weeks! Do you know Israel locked 1000s of women and children in, refusing them the right to leave, and then bombed them to death! That's all true, and documented. This sort of info will be very productive in the hands of 300 million people. Don't imagine your approach to life (blind rhetoric) is going to have much more space to fester in this century. Obama has come, whether your avatar likes it or not, and now Israel will fall.

Oh yah, it would also help if they quit crying death to Israel. There is something about a neighbor with a gun who says he wants to kill you that is very unsettling, even if he isn't actively shooting bullets at your house.

that's exactly why israel should stop being an evil nation right now! my boycott will cripple and crush it. so Israel ought to stop annoying me and 1 bill muslims, and 4.5 bill other people - Israel should stop annoying the whole world. You KNOW Israel is hated by at least 5.5 billion people - imagine how ripe it is for boycott! That's the truth, lad. So watch out. I'ma comin. If I were you I'd change your tune, for there's NO stopping me.

And your constant comments like this will keep me on the other side of this argument.. You are incapable of rational discussion.. You simply want to destroy, and that level of hatred should not be allowed..

We don't NEEEED you. The boycott already appeals to far more people than not. Apart from those who aren't yet informed (but will be) the boycott already, surveys show, will get majority support. YOU are part of what the problem has been anyway.

And your constant comments like this will keep me on the other side of this argument..

Aggression is the name of the game. I am giving israel back what it's given. I don't WANT you on my side. I'm locking you and your political kind in, together, into a boycotted nation. As you and your political kind have done to gaza and palestine as a whole, and to others.


This is a boycott. I'm not trying to make you co-operate any more. Those days are gone. I am aggressively shutting down every possible monetary alley into Israel. You are OBVIOUSLY one of them. My only role toward you is to make sure you no longer operate in future - that you are part of what is economically shut down - the boycott WILL extend to every part of the global crime going on - all the wars, the murders, whether darfur, or iraq, or cuba, whether we're wondering about katrina or the tsunami. I intend to get consumer power engaged and moving in the right direction and then I intend to strike down every single culprit who hurts and kills children. Israel is number one, and Israel is EASILY defeated like this. It is only after that when the battle gets tough. From Egypt and Russia's homophobia, to the U.S.'s record unreported rape levels... I will spend my whole life shutting down anything I can like Israel. 2 years is for Israel, the rest of my life is for everyone else. I'm not going back to capitalism ever again. I'm staying on my new road. So I AM comin to get ya - if you happen to be someone who helps hurt others. Most people justifying israel's behviour do fit into that category, so it's a safe bet I'll even take YOUR money away, stevey. The thing you most hate about me is what qualifies me most - all the best activists say so, and know so, and WANT so. And I give so, and it works so. And we are a team - so...


What I mean is that I will reach millions of consumers and it is entirely up to them whether or not my boycott works, and the bottom line is that they are, in the majority, sick of Israel's "nazi" ways (as Roseanne, a leading consumer icon, has recently called it).

I am going to just keep on going, from every available angle and medium. I am even starting to collate videos and images to produce audiovisual material - which will assist very much in spreading awareness of which brands to boycott and how to boycott them easily (eg offering alternate brands)

And whilst gathering all the material I need I shall keep on back burner a second set of data, where I can put all other people needing boycotting... there are a lot of capitalists needing boycotting for ethical reasons. Hopefully Israel is the only state needing fullscale boycotting, since its population overwhelmingly supports apartheid and treating foreign children like dogs. But a lot of evil mechanisms exist in the world and I think it's time people found a way to stand up to it all.

I might, for example, try at some point to get muslims across the world to boycott certain groups within Islam, troublemaking groups - eg ones which promote or foster the growth of militant movements. I might also choose to find ways to help catholics pressure the Pope to announce the validity of using condoms in sub saharan Africa. There is a lot which can be done. Israel is just the first step... and I expect I'll do the whole thing from the Caribbean. What better place?

For the most part I intentionally do not post in the politics forum, and I'm generally neutral on this issue. I want to point out, however, that these kinds of things can't be accomplished without open mindedness and discussion. As someone who hasn't picked a side (which is difficult because the issue is not black and white) I personally don't find this boycott or your attitude toward those who disagree appealing. Judging from the people around me and the things I hear everyday I'd say that a great deal of people are torn on the issue. Too many in fact to simply ignore and claim that your cause "appeals to far more people than not".

I'm not taking a shot at you or supporting either side on the issue, just pointing out that shouting and yelling will only get you so far.

More British passengers died on the Titanic because they queued politely for lifeboats, researchers believe.
A behavioural economist says data suggests Britons in that era were more inclined to be "gentlemanly" while Americans were more "individualist".
Women with children had a 70% better chance of survival than men in such an environment, he told the BBC.

...



I reckon it will obviously be a much more widespread boycott in Europe and of course, above all, Britain. The USA naturally has to be targeted, but I think that a lot of "individualism" is still present in the USA!



Don't worry nullpointer, if you had seen what I've seen you'd understand that you can't ***** foot around when someone's dropping missiles on chiildren. I have seen a lot of anti-israel talk and i have found that 90% of potential boycotters don't act because they think it is futile. a man like me, with balls, loudness and aggression is a real confidence inspirer. Trust me, i'm a politically minded person with PLENTY experience of both being a political hack and fighting them. This project is NOT dependent on debate at all at all - in fact debate is our enemy since ither israeli/neocons swamp our side with too much info and slow down action, or they just use a lot of lies and rhetoric.

Do you, nullpointer, have feelings about the death of rachel corrie? Well I do, but I'm not going to sit debating with anyone whether her death was unjustified - I have read everything she wrote and act on it.

You should come and visit the real political forums where I am discussing this - if you're interested I'll PM you (I don't want to link to it since I am anonymous there).

If you want to be politically convinced go ahead - there's a LOT to read though, most developers wouldn't have the time. Like I said, debate will not lead to boycott action, only sales pitching will: in short, I ran tests on my marketing and found that it was easy for me to achieve a high percentage of conversions for my calls to purchasing action. What I am now about to do is set up a flood of calls to action, but these are not normal purchasing actions, these are "don't buy" or "buy this instead". as for the truth about israel's apartheid - it is already WIDELY known in the UK and Europe and while the USA lags behind in being informed, under obama they WILL start to understand what is wrong in israel - my work is as an advertiser not a debater.

I would genuinely be pulling in 1000s a month in £ from using the mechanism to just promote my business - but there's no need, since I have a "passive income" now.

In fact the sense of fear is also vital for me to instil for another big reason - more and more traders and advertisers will have to start to fear advertising things which are boycotted.

In a few fortnights, on the anniversary of the day Rachel Corrie was murdered, I shall launch the first leg of my campaign. All I have been doing for the last few days is working on that, non stop. THAT is what I am doing for palestine. people who "talk" for palestine are just hot air idiots, that's the truth. talking won't change a thing.

also - when making purchasing decisions happen in the 1000s, i rely on the fact that people are sheep. i think that they will follow the boycott just like sheep too. remember, i sit here as a psychologist, in some ways, making people decide to buy goods through me.

think of all these jv17s who spam this forum and they get hits to their site and the hit goes to a pay-per-click ad and they get paid. well take me - i took 50 people from the forums, sent em to my site - some of them bought goods from traders i advertise - i was even told what goods they bought and paid for it as a percentage of what they bought.

that's me. that's my skill. i know where to find people and make em take buying decisions.

now i'm applying that to 300,000 target zones vetted so that it reaches a minimum of 300 million people - these 300 million people are NOT going to be asked to debate politics - they are simply going to be told what not t buy, if they support the boycott.

if you knew how much you have failed to know about the plight of palestinians, np, you would weep and be ashamed of yourself, bytheway. yes, it's that bad. can you please put your programming down for a day and go off and read ALL about it? there's no need for me to point the way - there is abundant material describing what kind of sick apartheid is suffered by EVERY palestinian.

btw are you USA or UK? i find most UK people are very very anti-israeli-apartheid now. I've spoken to the governing party's campaigners and they have told me that the biggest votewinner in britain right now is antiwar and anti-israel.

i am happy to read (and reread) your criticism np, but i'm sure you see what i mean - i am here like a rowing cox, not like a campaigner for truce. i'm here to give the bleeding hearts some backbone - because they don't have a HOPE IN HELL against israel without someone who knows how to truly fight.

RIGHT NOW boys who lost their mother and father are preparing to carry out SUICIDE BOMB ATTACKS in jerusalem. I am as sure of that as I am sure that Israel butchered lots of innocent people.

As you know, I was terrified when Israel's missiles were flying about (and could have killed the one I love) and I'm just as scared of terrorists killing innocent civilians (including the one I love) in Jerusalem.

My aim is to TOTALLY FREEZE ALL VIOLENCE in the area - it really is. And the only way to do this fast (and I WANT TO do it fast, because I love her so much I don't want to wait for there to be another reason to be scared ****less for her life) is a highly aggressive boycott which makes israelis terrified as hell of ever shooting another palestinian again and which makes palestinians look around at a world willing to back them against israeli oppression and say "we don't need to use bombs, now - we have democracy on our side".

(there is no one single link I can give you leading to the truth of how horrific israel's treatment of palestinians is - there are literally 10s of 1000s - if you have not got it in you to go and look for such links yourself, you'd NEVER boycott israerl anyway. all these years i find people who already have a penchant for something and then i sell it to them. that's the same as what i'll do re israel - and it is true - the majority of europeans are 100% ready for a boycott - the USA is VERY different and full of bigots who have made it impossible for ordinary people like you to know what is really going on. if nothing else, read the words of your martyred countryman, Rachel Corrie)
