In my store the generic brands of many health and beauty items are made in Turkey and in other Israel hating countries, check your labels boycott the Muslim nations that hate us as well as Muslim sympathizing countries like Great Britain, France etc, many food products may be from these countries as well lets not support those who wish to destroy us its worth the extra .75 cents or even a dollar it costs to buy the name brands that are produced in America.
I mentioned Great Britain specifically because of Oxfam an organization that is extremely anti-Israel they told an actress who worked for them that endorses Sodastream to quit Sodastream she did not instead she quit Oxfam much to her credit.
1. Its actually a very broad number of countries if you base it on how they vote at the UN. If instead you look at whether these countries trade with Israel, the number shrinks significantly. For many countries, it is normal to condem Israel and then to buy Israeli goods. Indeed, many countries both denounce Israel at the UN, and buy Israeli produced weapons. An example of the “bark” being worse than the “bite”?
2. In many countries, the major products we import are produced by the local Jewish community for the kosher market so it wouldn’t accomplish much to boycott these products. The fact that a product has a kosher certification is probably much more important than the politics of the government of the country of production (and if the product doesn’t have a hecksher, why buy it to begin with).
I don’t see the comparison of Turkey (whose government is anti-Israel) and the UK. Oxfam may be an anti-Israel British organization, but there are plenty of anti-Israel American organizations. So why not boycott American goods as well?
