App to boycott Israeli goods

[Everexpanding]

the “No Thanks” app, which first appeared almost two years ago carrying a large list of companies and brands consumers might consider boycotting because of Israeli links.
The app has become a key tool for the BDS movement that targets Israel economically for the actions of its government and its military in Gaza.
Along with a list of companies and brands to boycott, the app allows users to scan barcodes to find out more about the relationship particular products have with Israel.

It would if they downloaded it and used it to check the provenance of goods before stickering

If it was stickered why is there not a photo of it stickered? You are showing noodles placed beside a sticker that is on a shelf, I'm not sure what that is proof of. The stickers are put on Israeli products when people are stickering not shelves because there is no point in stickering a shelf. Considering how campaign against antisemitism tried to twist the Israeli falafel mix into antisemitism I will retain a healthy amount of skepticism at your photo of a stickered shelf.

An inspiring story that shows boycotts work and small actions can make a difference

The Dunnes Stores boycott was a nearly three-year strike (1984-1987) by 11 Irish grocery workers who refused to handle goods from apartheid South Africa. Led by Mary Manning and Karen Gearon,the workers' protest started when Manning was suspended for refusing to sell South African fruit, leading her colleagues to walk out in solidarity. The strike gained international attention, resulted in the workers' suspension and eventual police harassment, but ultimately forced the Irish government to ban imports of all South African produce, making Ireland the first European country to do so.

International Recognition:
The strike garnered international support. Nelson Mandela lauded the workers, stating their actions showed South Africans that ordinary people in faraway places cared about their freedom. Archbishop Desmond Tutu also visited the strikers on his way to accept his Nobel Peace Prize, commending their immense personal cost.

Boycotts work. That why there is backlash.

Does Israel face a 'South Africa moment' over Gaza?

As the war in Gaza grinds on, Israel's international isolation appears to be deepening.
Is it approaching a "South Africa moment", when a combination of political pressure, economic, sporting and cultural boycotts helped to force Pretoria to abandon apartheid?

I think that's somewhat true, but unfortunately the situation won't end up like the South African one as the Israeli government's inability to self reflect means that it will continue down the path of self destruction. The government doesn't understand the concept of an off ramp.

They'll continue to blame everything on Hamas and antisemitism.

Netanyahu will take increasingly risky actions, likely attacking Iran, Lebanon and Qatar again. There are also reports of increasing tensions with Egypt and Turkey (who feel they've been screwed over in Syria). Saudi Arabia signing a defence pact yesterday with nuclear Pakistan.

The only question will be which other countries it will Netanyahu take down with him, the way the Trump administration is acting it is losing support from it's base.

Netanyahu gave a "Sparta" speech a few days ago, where he acknowledged that Israel will have to become self reliant as they are increasingly isolated.

"Autarky is an economic system of self-sufficiency and limited trade. A country is said to be in a complete state of autarky if it has a closed economy, which means that it does not engage in international trade with any other country."

I agree @BelleHathor. I think it is hard to see how the situation will resolve, a halt to activities in Gaza and some respite for Palestinians would be a start and my hope, but I fear what else will happen both before and after

Sixth commandment: you shall not murder. Not - you shall not kill. Very clear difference.

As you were.

Oh I think they were just trying to catch me out. Sadly I don't know anything about Jewish law so I coudn't comment. I am still stunned by this though. Its hard to believe someone thought it was appropriate to hold all Jews accountable for the actions of the Israeli government: what are Jewish people generally doing to object to actions apparently being taken in their name and in contravention of their laws?

Actually that depends entirely on the translation of the original that you use, and the interpretation placed on the difference between harag and ratzah in the Torah.The killing of an enemy combatant in war is killing which is deemed justified; the killing of non-combatants is murder and is not.

Translation is a tricky thing and depends on context, because cultural context is very different from one group of people to another, so words do not always mean the same thing.

Setting aside the theology, I do not know what you would call the killing of civilians including large number of women and children and the commission of war crimes, but almost the entire world calls it murder.

'Setting aside the theology, I do not know what you would call the killing of civilians including large number of women and children and the commission of war crimes, but almost the entire world calls it murder'

If you lined up thousands and shot them or gassed as the nazis did, yes that is a warcrime and murder. If they are killed in airtsrikes as happened in ww2 and as happened in gaza then no that is not 'murder' it is civilians deaths in a conflict.

I'm pointing out the difference between murder and civilian deaths in a war.

Most of the world officially disagrees with you. I will leave it there as you do not wish to change your mind, and the vast majority of the world do not see it as you do. I will, however, point out that targetting a hospital no matter what the excuse is legally considered a war crime.

Not true

I would argue that does not evidence lack of a war crime.But have it as you will. Most of the world still disagres with you. As it should.

I didn't express an opinion and my 'will' is irrelevant to a matter of fact. I posted a link to international law relating to hospitals. Attacking a hospital is not automatically a war crime.

Boycotts clearly work so keep going everybody.

If they didn’t then the levels of anger and attempts at justifying killing innocent people would not be present on this thread. Tactics to silence us will not work, and the entire world is awake to what is happening.

'If they didn’t then the levels of anger and attempts at justifying killing innocent people would not be present on this thread'

Not one person has justified killing innocent people. Sadly that happens when terrorists like hamas use civilians to hide behind.

We surely all share the same level of anger for hamas who caused the atrocities that launched the conflict?

Oh. So like Palestinian Action then. Good to know you don’t agree they should be labelled as terrorists.

Meanwhile this thread isn’t about stickering products
We don’t need stickers. We have the app
Stickering, if it exists on products not made in Israel ( we haven’t seen any proof of that, just the one Gladioli mentioned which is made in Israel …so unproven ) is still a non issue on this thread

Exactly.

👍
