Kebabs seem to be a sort of "pan-Muslim" food industry, but I also know some Greek restaurants which made a sort of similar sandwich. |

The pita bread that they use is baked without the yeast. This is something that will not sound strange for most of you, but it was strange in Spain. And it is still rare at large.
In Spain it's known as pan ácimo (or ázimo). In French, pain azyme. It was considered a Semitic bread here, as it is the process to elaborate the bread of the Jews (matza or matzo) and the breads from Turkey and the Middle East (pita).

Palestinian immigrants not necessarily originate from occupied West Bank but often from Lebanon and Jordan. Instead of pillaging Denmark and other countries (doing the same they accuse the Jews to do), that worked to have this level of welfare benefits, they should go home and build up their lands.

I too try to avoid big companies when I can, but the occasional bottle of Coke or Maggi soup won't make much of a difference if any. I don't think it makes much of a difference if a few people boycott Israeli products. If it were done politically, on a national or at least regional level, I think it maybe would. I heard there was a white nationalist who tried to boycott any product with Israeli involvement and he gave up eventually because it was basically impossible. Can't remember his name. I mean, how many of you use ICQ? How many of you admitted to having eaten at McDonalds?
Also, there are co-nationals involved in manufacturing, advertising and selling these products, so buying them supports their jobs as well. Just like by buying or boycotting a Mercedes or VW one doesn't support/hurt Germans and Germany only. Wouldn't boycotting a local kebab stand and such be more likely to put one out of business?Last edited by Nerthus; Thursday, June 7th, 2007 at 11:12. |

My students union has banned all nestle products from their commercial outlets
but i dont think its got anything to do with the Israel connection. It was justified on the grounds that the companys aggresive marketing stratergy in the third world was resulting in an increased infant mortality rate. |

Anyway, how is Nestle's aggressive marketing strategy in the third world war responsible for an increased mortality rate? I would not be surprised to learn left-wing guerillas that recruit children soldiers are responsible for at least the same amount of dead children.

I think the best way to boycott Israeli products is to boycott one company who's owner publicly supports Israel. The important thing is to concentrate on one target rather than boycott a long list of multinationals. A very public campaign against one or two retailers is best.

The way things are it is surely of primary importance to boycott products made in Europe but which support the Islamic communities. The boycotting of imports from either Israel or Muslim countries, while still important, it remains second in importance.
