1. Howard Stern's lesson on confronting BDS
Chaim ,   Israel   (10.29.15)
Howard Stern's powerful take down of BDS bigot Roger Waters is a teachable moment on how to confront BDS. The answer is very publicly, factually BUT emotionally too. Israel's foes never deal with facts, because facts are all on Israel's side. Bibi is a great speaker. He gets all the facts right, but he often sounds like a corporate lawyer. On the other hand, Israel's foes shriek like banshees about fake "Palestinian rights". Israel's foes manipulate emotions. Israel needs to fight back on an emotional level. Humans are emotional beings and act mainly according to emotions.
2. What a crock!
Benji ,   US   (10.29.15)
The BDSers are eating their hearts out as Israel hosts this kick ass event. They could organize a similar event for the Palestinians. Even offer weight loss advice since many Palestinians are obese. Include BYOK (bring your own knife) which they have in abundance. But no, these keyboard cowards prefer to be malicious and stir the pot of conflict while neglecting to realize they give free PR to Israel's culinary trade.
3. First You Laughed At BDS, Then You Scorned Us
World Citizen ,   the world   (10.29.15)
Now you are fighting us. Next you will lose. We are not going away. The students of the major universities learn more and more your apartheid and oppression of the Palestinian people. They will soon will take the reigns of power. The intelligentsia long ago made up their minds about your occupation. The people in the USA are getting tired of your country's antics and the costs to them of that criminal activity. Payday someday.
4. they should laugh with disdain at these BDS stunts, #3
Cameron ,   USA   (10.30.15)
You & your weenie cohorts imagine you'll grind down a successful state and regional power with pathetic moves of this nature? Pressuring chefs to pass on culinary competition in the name of the Palestinian people? For real? Has a rather desperate, ineffectual ring to it all, #3. With hokey tactics of that stamp, I do believe the Israelis will continue to move along & weather this spiteful BDS 'campaign' right nicely.
5. #3, World Citizen
Joe ,   Los Angeles, USA   (10.30.15)
That's not my impression of the people here in the US. Most Americans don't like insane lefties and various Marxist activists. Your days are numbered, and it is you who will lose.
6. #3 "Payday someday...." What's that - a welfare check?
Son of Liberty ,   Australia   (10.30.15)
You poor desperate little gnat ..you wrote all that shit and nobody but me read it. And I couldn't care either. Have a nice weekend XXXOOO
7. No3 You are not aworld citizen. We in US grow tired of you.

Boors, Douchebags, Scallywags!
9. FB Mike Stand I'd pay to see that.
BUILD BABY BUILD !!!   (10.30.15)
10. Culinary TA Event
Neal Rothner ,   Hashmonaim, Israel   (11.03.15)
If the Palestinians will stop stabbing innocent people the tablecloth wouldn't have any bloodstains. Neal Rothner
