So Ingalill Bjartén you should start by asking the SE police to stop asking help from the IL police in counter terrorism training or in Krav Maga or SE SF should stop learning from IL how to fight. It is so cool to use war as a political tool that it's sad |

If we were to boycott Israel then it ought to be in conjunction with a total boycott of Palestine as well, and this should include ALL aid and representation.

I wonder if the situation was reversed and it was Israeli's getting bombed and shelled, would they care? I think not.

By all accounts that's exactly what's happened. Hell, I didn't even know (untill recently) that the Palestinians have been shelling Israel for several weeks or months. No, I don't think "they" care at all. |

I knew about that, not sure your ignorance can be used to measure the depth of caring by "them".

My ignorance can be used to measure the level of biased media coverage presented to the average citizen.

Well not really, I'm an average citizen too with access to the same media.
I didn't mean to sound as harsh as it did, I just found that an amusing example of the absolute absence of logical thinking that manifests whenever Israelistine is discussed. "I was unaware of a thing therefore I deduce that other people who I cannot even name are uncaring about said thing" is not logical. All it really indicates is that you didn't know something about a place far away - nothing wrong with that, the world is full of stuff and we cannot possibly know all of it. If you were interested yourself you'd have gone out and read about it, but you're not so you didn't. You can't extrapolate that into what other people think though. |

Don't think i've ever seen something with "made in israel". Not that I would boycott anything if I had. Maybe if I was able to target the ultra orthodox.
And palestine, how can they be boycot, do they produce anything but rockets these days? |
