A large department store in Canada (The Bay) has decided to pull AHAVA beauty products from their shelves, bowing to pressure by several groups who wish to boycott all Israeli made products. Because of this, many Jews in Israel are in danger of losing their Jobs, if overall demand for their products fall…I’ve also heard of this happening elsewhere throughout the US as well….What is our responsibility? Not to shop at these stores? Buy more Israeli made products? Ignore it all together?

January 13, 2011 7:40 pm at 7:40 pm #727624popa_bar_abbaParticipantI would say not shopping at those stores could be a good idea. However, it sort of enforces the notion that boycotts are a good idea.
I am planning to send them an email complaining.

Encourage your friends to launch a “BUY-cott”–specifically buying Israeli products and shopping at stores resisting pressure from anti-Israel types. Call or write companies that have boycotted and tell them how disapointed you are. Call companies that are still deciding and let them know how you feel.
