How is the boycott going?

[aris2chat]

Amazing that people are trying to boycott a factor that provides good jobs for palestinians but does not care when hamas makes statements like 'We won't stop until we exterminate the Zionists' and fire rockets or celebrate stabbings of more than a dozen Israelis

Everyone should be boycotting hamas and gaza.
As for peace, attempts at unity between hamas and fatah have broken down yet again. They can't make peace between their own people so why should israel expect they are serious about a peace with them? Especially after statements about exterminating them. Any some people blame Israel for genocide??????? How about condemning the palestinians for their ambitions of genoicde??

...and now the cartoonists join in.

Cartoonists = Strongest pillar of European society. Looks like a gaggle of Jew-hating sonsabitches to me.

"The UC Student Association is the official voice of the student body of the University of California, and represents hundreds of thousands of undergraduate and graduate students across the UC system. Today (9th February) it became the first multi-campus student association to vote in favor of divestment. This landmark vote is undoubtedly the largest victory thus far in the campus divestment movement in the United States."

"Skeptics were wrong; South Africa divestment worked

In 1977, when I became president of Hampshire College, we began to seriously consider divestment. As an African historian, I brought some expertise to the discussion. It was not easy. Helen Suzman, a staunch South African opponent of apartheid, urged me to think carefully. If American companies pulled out of South Africa, Africans would lose jobs........When I met F.W. de Klerk, the last president of the apartheid regime, in Chicago two years ago, he was clear: "When the divestment movement began, I knew that apartheid had to end."

Wake us up when something significant happens in this regard, in connection with Israel.

I have a feeling it's going to be a lonnng nap.

[montelatici]

The fact that the University of California student body vote for divestment in South Africa was a turning point and the fact that the same student body just voted for divestment in Israel was the point that was made. <snicker>

That, and $3.50, will get you a cup of coffee at Starbucks...

You guys really crack me up... making mountains out of mole-hills...

Still... when that's all that you've got going for you... I can see how drowning men tend to grasp at straws... and delude themselves that it means something.

Hi Monte,I stongly believe that without the joint support of F.W,de Klerk and Nelson Mandella South Africa could have become a blood-bath..during the transition of NO apartheid...both men did a terrific job in preventing this.........just sayin steve

Quite a statement from a member of the Zionist Trolls,considering the Zionists attempt to eliminate the Palestinian race......you have NO MORAL LEG TO STAND ON...........your comment is puerile

Because it worked with a nation without much of an economy, and with very little of an export market does not mean it will work with a nation that has so many other nations dependent on its exports. When your family starts dying because the hospitals cant source the drugs needed outside of Israel at a price the insurance companies are prepared to pay then you will change your tune.

Has the University acted on the students wishes, or have they told them they face disciplinary measures if they don't cease. Lets see what happens when the US government stops the funding shall we ?

So you did not hear then, that Mandella caused most of the bloodbaths in South Africa, and was the cause of so many black deaths that the white police could not keep up. A bit like the Jordanian mass murders of Palestinians when they killed more in one month than Israel has killed in 66 years.

Sorry but Palestinian is not a race it is a name, and was the sole province of Jews until the arab muslims stole it for their cause.

 

[montelatici]

Jews are not a race, they are simply people that adhere to Judaism. There were hardly any Jews in Palestine before 1850. And, the place was Christian before the Muslims took over, not Jewish at all.

So who was in charge before Christ after whom Christianity is named. You know between 2,500 BCE and 50 BCE ?


Once again Abdul spouts ISLAMONAZI PROPAGANDA and the muslim version of history. If as you say you are R.C. then you would know that your God is actually Jewish, and your religion is based on Judaism and the Torah.

Another fail by abdul trying to alter history.



Before I forget arab muslims owned Palestine for about 22 years and were kicked out in 1099 and have never had control of it since.

 

[montelatici]

1. It seems that Jews ruled a Kingdom called Israel from 1050 to 722 when it was destroyed by the Assyrians.

World History Timeline Ancient Israel civilization timeline and overview

2. My God is not Jewish at all. I believe in the Holy Trinity, nothing to do with the Jewish god.

3. After the ruling Romans adopted Christianity as the state religion, Palestine was ruled by Christians until conquered by the Arab armies of Umar ibn al-Khattab in 634 CE. Christians reconquered Jerusalem in 1099. Muslims reconquered the place in 1187. Christians reconquered the place in 1229 but from 1244-1247 the Tartars conquered it. In 1247 the Egyptians (Muslims) conquered it and it remained Muslim ruled until the British took over after WW1. So, your claim that arab muslims ruled for 22 years is a pretty stupid lie. You forget the period from 634 thru 1099 AD. .

Christ is not a name. It simply means anointed which could cover a number of jobs/titles of the time.

Yup. Technically "Christos" from the Greek. Interestingly the name "Jesus" might have been completely made up at the time as it derives from the Aramaic/Hebrew words for "Saviour/Deliverer/Rescuer". So technically "Jesus Christ" should translate as "Anointed Saviour" We may never know what he was really called if he ever existed at all.
