61. #60 Tip of anti-Israel propaganda
Cynthia ,   USA   (07.31.09)
Aside from cutting and pasting over 36 year old partial quotes from an Israeli leader, what does this have to do with Ahava? Are you at a loss to justify this boycott clown act?
62. code pink

63. Another Jew who won't buy Ahava!
Alexis ,   New York   (08.01.09)
I'm sick and tired of theft of land and lives in our name. And for those of you who talk about the looks of the protesters, it just shows what kind of people you are.

Lina ,   US   (08.03.09)
These boycotts efforts are a waste of time.
67. Code stupidity, code ugliness. Double whamo
Sylvia ,   USA   (08.04.09)
Why give such stupidity and Ugliness a platform. They frightened people away with their ugly looks. Yak.
68. re.idiots
sireen ,   Palestine   (08.04.09)
What amazez me the most is an idiot making fun of knoledgable people...... i advise YOU to go and educate yourself on the history of Palestine and the Israeli occupationb before making any silly comments ....
69. Misogynistic comments show lack of argument
Courtney ,   Pittsburgh, USA   (08.07.09)
While not necessarily everyone who wrote these horrendous comments about how ugly the Codepinkers are are themselves sexist, it is totally giving into misogyny to try to make an "argument" by calling the protesters ugly. No one would EVER bring up physical appearance if they were men and it just shows how weak the argument is in favor of Ahava. I understand standard rote pro-Israel nonsense, but to bathe it in sexist comments show how desperate Zionists are becoming. It's pure desperation and that helps me sleep at night. Towards an open tomb. Only wild jabs from now on. Just like the desperate racists in the US upset by the election of Barack Obama or the appointment of Sonia Sotomayor. You ought to be ashamed to use your name and time to defend a company that extracts resources from occupied territory in order to stand up for a colonial settler state that strives for ethno-religious exclusivity. Ashamed. It's nor your land. Palestinians exist. You just came too late the imperial game to do it while no one was watching.
70. Why don't they get a real job
Sharon ,   Brooklyn,NY   (08.07.09)
Dirty? what about that nasty tatoo on one of those protesters. That's dirty. They are sad unpatriotic ignorant morons. Throw them into the lion's den of shaaria law and see what blood thirsty savages the palestinians really are.
71. The Dead Sea belongs mostly to Palestinians of the West Bank
Allegra ,   Jerusalem. Israel   (08.31.09)
That's precisely because people abroad do know geography that it's everyone is aware that the Dead Sea is for the most part an Israeli-occupied Palestinian territory. Ahava is doing great products, but they should do it from the part of the Dead Sea that belongs to Israel, not from the part that is illegaly occupied and stolen from the Palestinians for the benefit of illegal Israeli settlements. Anyone driving along the Dead Sea can see it mostly belongs to the West Bank. There are military Israeli checkpoints all along the Dead Sea because it's an occupied territory. The scandal is not that some honest people want to boycott Ahava, the scandal is that Palestinian children can not benefit from the Dead Sea, as they are forbidden to go by illegal Israeli settlers. Israel is a great country. It will be even greater the day when it ceases occupying its neighbors.
72. #71 Dead Sea belongs to Israel
Ron ,   US   (09.06.09)
My wife uses Ahava and highly recommends it.
73. comment #1,
roi ,   israel   (12.19.10)
part of the dead sea belongs to Israel, but that is NOT the part which the products are made in. they are made in a settlement in Palestinian territory.
