When a person supports such a policy of hurting his own people, a people he fails to realize ARE in fact his OWN people, then he is obviously missing a great part of the picture. You are blaming innocent people/citizens of Israel for a political policy you don't agree with. Why are you so hell bent on hurting your own people?!! What are you not concerned more about the constant missles being hurled at Israel EVERYDAY in the "name of peace!" -you obviously think it's just fine to allow unrestricted Arab terrorism because your support of such a policy reveals it! You imagine that you can "choke" people out of Judea/Semaria by trying to take the bread off their tables. I assume you that would only make them remain because they wouldn't have money to move! I'm sure that no matter what i'd say to you, you will remain firm in support of a policy which actually hurts Arabs and Jews alike.

The EU like the Titanic orchestra deals with an artifical problem, without any significance. Meantime Europe is sinking in the sea of moslim and coloured immigrants, threatening the very existence of the continent.

You say that a lot of "Palestinians" - (yes I know that it's hard for you to use that word) will lose their jobs. Actually South Africa said the same thing about the Blacks nearly 50 years ago when the boycott of that country began. That boycott, economic, political, and sport lasted more than 20 years and led to the collapse of the White Regime. Eventually the same will happen here, and my children and grandchildren will become stateless,

They buy those products because they need or want them . So those little groups will punish themselve . Settlements are blocking the "peace" proces ? And where or when was there a "peace" proces when there was NO Israeli Jew in Judea Samaria nor in Yeroushalaim [ Jerusalem for some ] ? When there were NO settlements ?

of human race was to get over "tribal thinking", dear # 31

These are not "religious" groups, nor are any of them "humanitarian". They are racist, pro-Palestinian groups that promote fascist rule by Arab dictatorships. These same groups have no problem with Palestinian war crimes (of which there are thousands), they have no problem with Palestinian suppression of free speech, and they have no problem with Palestinian racist policies against Christians and other minorities. These groups and the people involved are disgusting examples of what happens when people eat propaganda for breakfast. They remind me of the American soldiers who in Viet Nam said "in order to save the village we had to burn it to the ground".

When where and by whom.

You do sound like a nice person, and I sincerely hope that Gush Etzion will always remain an integral part of the State of Israel. It may interest you to know, that just as most of the Settlers are NICE, NORMAL PEOPLE, most of the White people in South Africa in 1965 were NICE NORMAL PEOPLE. The system in SA then, and the occupation and settlement of the Palestinian homelands now, were and are unacceptable to the nations of the world! The White regime in SA was ended by boycott and that will be the fate of Israel if we don't negotiate a two state solution and soon.

Some questions fielded on Israel and Palestine issues yesterday Interesting to hear the full spectrum of opinion for and against..thats what democracy is all about. And the constructive ideas to move the peace process forward Interesting too to see there are still one or two buffoons who make no contribution other than for a bit of self promoting PR One such yesterday was the old Colonel Bob Stewart whose stuttered question was naff and pathetic and whose guffawing during the proceedings childish and his red face looking as if hed enjoyed one too much for dinner Perhaps Kernel Bob Stewart might be more appropriate...Kernel...A Nut... THE PRIZE NUTTER

Two points . Only some of those groups are "religious" ones . Secondly , i think that NO one of those groups existed during WWII . So they could'nt have any role in the massacre of Jews . There were nazi christians , Tiso the leader of Slovakia [ i think it was Slovakia ] was a priest . We can also see roman catholic dignitaries doing the h. salute , or others "bless" the soldiers arms , and so on . The then pope also remained silent , even when more than 2000 Polish priests were murdered . On the other side , something you HATE to acknowledge , many roman catholic priests and even some bishops were named Righteous amongst the Nations by Yad Vashem . Other Christian communities SAVED thousands of Jews , Le Chambon sur Lignon , or a Dutch village as examples .

Your figures are not correct as Jerusalem's 250,000 Jews living over the 67 armistice lines are not included but are considered "settlers" by these organizations there are now nearly 700,00 "settlers " and growing daily and the 2.5 million Palestinians is a proven exagerated figure unless you are including the cut off Gaza Strip . These churches and organizations enjoy complete freedom of movement within Israel this should be curtailed. Most of their own members dont agree with their leaders decisions and dont forget the larges Christian bodies are the worlds pro Israel Evangleicals now numbering 700 million and growing while the other groups are losing members lets have a reality check please .

by justifying their knee-jerk reaction of accusing jews of only having monetary (read: greed) interests. It appears that modern selfrightious europe still lives in the dark middle ages... surprise

that the UN, the EU (or the US) and those who worship even its sinister side, would not support such a measure. If the Western world already has empowered AL Queda in Libya, the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, and the Jihadists in Syria, they will empower Hamas, the PA, and other Jihadists in their war against Israel. In the end, when all efforts to accept reality and save themselves from their own misery have failed, the world will seek servitude and eventually genocide against Jews.

It's very sad, that every time there is criticism of Israel, whether justified or not, some people are not adult enough to cope with it and call it ANTI-SEMITISM! The boycott of South Africa, which began almost 50 years ago, and the boycott of Israel were caused by situations unacceptable to the nations of the world. This boycott has nothing to do with Anti-Semitism, and the sooner our govenment realises that TIME IS NOT ON OUR SIDE, the better.

In name only. If they read their bibles they'd know the land was given to Israel by G-d, including Judea, Samaria, and, of course all of Jerusalem. These must be the same 'Christian's' that rounded up Europe's Jews to be exterminated by their allies, the nazis. Where are the 'protestant' Christians who left the vatican for the purpose of following Christ's words ? Are there no more followers of Christ who, like he, loved Israel?

I suggest these lovely empathic people ask for a 10 month moratorium on rocket attacks on southern Israel. And then perhaps they might tackle the 'crime' of goods from the settlements.

What about from Syria where hundreds of innocent civilians are being killed???

Whether the governments of Europe ban settler (occupiers) products. The people of the civilised world will stop Israel's illegal occupation and aggression one purchase at a time. By the way, most computer chips are made in Asia not Israel so when that subject comes up most people just laugh. The computer, the internet and mainly the outrageous behavior of the Israeli government will defeat the illegal occupation of the West Bank.

"Israel is a world leader in terms of research and development spending as a percentage of the economy; it's top in both the number of start-ups and engineers as a proportion of the population; and it's first in per capita venture capital investment." We export every year billion of US$ Hi tech articles , Those who import them , NEED THEM . Intel has 5 centers R&D centers here , microsoft , HP and many others too . They know WHY . So boycott ?

( like you) and their inability to internalize and analyze reality. That's explains why in all the years that you have been flooding this site with your inane posts, reality has been diverging further and further away from your goals.

No problem. Then just remove from your computer those chips that were made in Israel, and you're home free.

And what are you going to live on,drive,wear etc.. for every one product you mention, there is thousands of others that you need. the world is not depending on you, it is the other way around. the "chosen" people have to start acting like the "chosen".
