Did all eight attendees chant "Death to Amrica'' and Death to Jews''?

Robert Fisk, one of the worst Israel-hating journalists in the history of Israel-hating journalists, has shuffled off this mortal coil.
You can see samples of his Israel-bashing here and here.
So bad was Fisk’s “journalism” that the blogosphere invented the term “fisking” – the process of shredding a written argument line-by-line – based on his name, given the constant need to do it to his lie-ridden work. Heck, I used it quite a few times over the years.

One moment, please...

Italy Is Staying Home, but Solidarity Isn't. Israeli Apartheid Free Zone Network Grows to 200.

It is this sense of commonality and solidarity that has led to another important milestone for the network of Israeli Apartheid Free Zones (AFZ) in Italy. There are now more than 200 commercial activities, cultural and sports centers, and associations throughout Italy that have declared themselves free of Israeli apartheid.

As Italy and most of the world face a health crisis that brings suffering, anxiety and insecurity, solidarity actions have anything but stopped.

Almost there! Help us reach 10,000 pledges to Boycott AXA

If enough of us get together we can stop this shameless profiteering from Israeli apartheid. AXA invests $7 million in three Israeli banks banks that finance illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied Palestinian and Syrian territory (Golan Heights) through mortgages to settlers and financial services for settlement construction.

Over 12,000 individuals and 500 organisations have pledged to Boycott AXA

Last October, campaigners launched a call to boycott AXA. Now 12,000 individuals and 500+ organizations pledged to boycott AXA, and many people have cancelled their AXA insurance policies.

BLUF: As per the usual, the Activism "Boycott Israel consists of actions to impede, the corporate postures with social, political, economic "AXA." You can non-violently work to degrade AXA or support and promote AXA connections. But in the end, the act of trying to degrade AXA is demonstrating just how destructive the Arab Palestinians are to themselves and toward others.

I've seen this many, many times. This is one example in the family of a "shotgun approach" that telemarketers and politicians use. [Ad Populum (Appeal to the Masses)] If you ask enough people you will get a certain number of responses (just on sheer probability) in your favor.

Who is pledging and just What did these 6,000 people pledge? AXA is a €104 Billion(+) French corporation that is into financial and Investment services (Insurance on the side).

Let me tell you a sorry tale of how fake news, not just any fake news but neo-Nazi fake news, seems to be acceptable to the British left as long as it involves the current Prime Minister of Israel and how it ended up on the timeline of British ‘celebrities’ Stephen Mangan and David Baddiel…
Shortly after the result of the presidential election became clear, Prime Minister Netanyahu offered his congratulations to the President-elect. A normal piece of politicking. Bibi understands that President-elect Biden is going to be an important player in the coming years for Israel. He tweeted his congratulations to President Biden and joined just about every world leader in doing so.

Nothing strange here.

What happened next is far from normal:

I've read an article in recent days comparing several courthearings of various boycott calls,
and the how they applied differently in law depending on the motive and end result, i.e. to cause change, or simply cause financial damages and or eliminate a competitor.

But what I remember is that call to boycott of 3rd parties,
based on such motives was specifically mentioned as ilegitimate,
and viable for a legal penalty as well as payment of those damages.

Now AXA is in France, I have no idea how it goes there,
but wouldn't they have a case for damages in the US?

(P.S. I'll try to find that article.)

Hamas Boycotts Dairy Products…From the PA Controlled Territories

You read that right: Hamas is boycotting PA goods

The Secretary-General of the Palestinian Popular Committees, Eng. Azmi Al-Shyoukhi, said that Hamas’ banning dairy products from the West Bank entering into the Gaza Strip is a “terrible crime” aimed at perpetuating division.

Al-Shukyoukhi explained that Hamas preventing dairy products from the West Bank into the Gaza Strip violates the consumer’s right to choose, and affects health, food, economic and Palestinian national security, and contributes to doubling the blockade imposed by the occupation on the people of the Strip.

He stressed that preventing the entry of goods from the West Bank into the Gaza Strip represents a form of tightening the siege on the Gaza Strip, perpetuating the division and separating the Gaza Strip from the rest of the territories of the Palestinian state, stressing the importance of the unity of our people and our land and the need to strengthen national, economic, social, geographical and demographic unity to face challenges, dangers and programs Annexation, settlement, Judaization, the so-called deal of shame, and the plight of the Sahara century.

In the same context, the Palestinian Popular Committees condemned the Hamas movement banning the entry of products of national companies from the West Bank into the Gaza Strip under the pretext of “protecting the local product” in a clear distinction between national products in the two parts of the country, and what this means in terms of devoting political division and tendency towards geographical separation. This is an irresponsible and unpatriotic step that only serves the scheme to separate Gaza from the homeland.


it’s almost like 1945 all over again

But not quite.

But wait, if Hamas are banning dairy products from the PA controlled territories, then where will Gazans get their dairy products from?

Oh, never mind.
