Wow... hummus, too. The Apocalypse is nigh....I've also noticed that Sabra hummus, although on special offer and the cheapest brand on the shelves was still stacked high in my local Sainsbury's, looking quite lonely amongst the empty or near empty shelves of other, more expensive, brands...
Not to worry....This is how BDS works, small steps that lead major companies to review their sourcing policies because of changes in customer demand.
Mel is a very flawed man.
Alcoholic, wife abuser. And uneducated.
If only he had read my easy guide to Israel, telling him that Judaism is not Zionism, but Zionism is the pro war political movement, his outburst might have been hushed up, to prevent Americans from beginning to understand the difference.
How has his career been since?
No! You don't say!
Well, that is the price of a poor education.
Zionism is nothing more than the belief that the Jews should have a homeland in their ancestral lands and be allowed to live in peace. Once they have established their homeland to be granted the right to defend it and their citizens from all forms of violence, belligerence and attack.
It is not a dirty word as you are trying to portray it, nor is it like islam and violent by nature,
Israel should be commended on its restraint. It would be justified in wiping the Palastinians off the face of the earth.

Personally, I blame Britain for the situation in Palestine and feel that, instead of creating an explosive situation that will never end, should have released Gruinard Island and given every right to make it an independent State of Israel...
Bolivia on Wednesday renounced a visa exemption agreement with Israel in protest over its offensive in Gaza, and declared it a terrorist state.
President Evo Morales announced the move during a talk with a group of educators in the city of Cochabamba.
It "means, in other words, we are declaring (Israel) a terrorist state," he said.

Feel free to demonstrate how unintentional and collateral casualties incurred during the course of combat operations constitute genocide....There is no genocide occurring in Gaza...

Now diplomacy has failed, boycotting Israel might be the only way we can protect the people of Gaza - Comment - Voices - The IndependentIsrael has lost its grip on reality. The death toll in Gaza stands at well over a thousand and continues to rise by the day. The coastal strip has been reduced to rubble. Rather than celebrating Eid this week, Palestinians in Gaza have been burying their dead.
Jon Snow’s poignant message after his return from Gaza on Channel 4 news was heart-breaking. He had been reporting from Al Shifa hospital where he saw many horrific injuries and scores of dead children.
He ended his report with this plea to the public: “If our reporting is worth anything, if your preparedness to listen and watch and read is anything to go by, then together we can make a difference."
This latest massacre of Palestinians has been well documented, with every death recorded and every bombing filmed. Although this has yet to deter Israel, it is still important to keep documenting this assault so that its victims do not fall into the chasms of history.
But individuals in the international community need to go further than this. They need to boycott Israel. It might be the only thing that ends the impunity that is allowing them to repeatedly assault Palestinian human rights.
When airlines began cancelling their flights to Ben Gurion airport in Tel Aviv, Israel panicked. They demanded that the international airlines resume their flights and Netanyahu personally called John Kerry to lift the Federal Aviation Administration ban.
This minuscule moment in time when Israel was threatened with being internationally isolated spoke volumes.

Hell, from 1950 to 2009 (virtually all of Israel's history), Bolivia and Israel have not even had formal diplomatic relations, as Bolivia did not recognize Israel.Bolivia on Wednesday renounced a visa exemption agreement with Israel in protest over its offensive in Gaza, and declared it a terrorist state.
President Evo Morales announced the move during a talk with a group of educators in the city of Cochabamba.

Speaking only for myself...Ask yourself a question, are More People joining the boycott of Israel, or leaving?
Gaza War Can't Stop Israel's Tech Deals
Missile attacks are forcing Israeli workers to periodically abandon their desks to huddle in bomb shelters, but the war with Hamas hasn't disrupted the flow of money into the country's technology industry.
Since the conflict escalated six weeks ago after the abduction of three Israeli teenagers, investors have kicked $598 million into the country's tech startups. During the time between June 12 and July 24, investing has actually accelerated as the fighting has claimed more than 1,200 Palestinians and 55 Israelis. During a preceding six-week period starting in April, private tech financing was $282 million, according to data compiled by IVC Research Center in Tel Aviv.
Amid the violence in Gaza, other parts of Israel's economy are going strong, too. The shekel is approaching a three-year high, and bond yields are at a record low.
Life under fire has instilled a degree of mental toughness into Israelis, says Esther Loewy, the founder and chief executive officer of early-stage investment firm Upround Ventures. “The first lesson we have learned is that adversity, and tough mental and physical conditions produce stronger and successful companies,” she says.
There's also a strong sense of camaraderie within Israel's tech industry. For example, Glide, a Jerusalem startup that makes a video messaging app, is offering temporary office space to fellow techies based in the more dangerous southern region of the country. Glide has continued to work during the conflict and released a version of its app for Amazon.com's Fire Phone on July 25.
