Stupid Europeans Boycott Israel

25 April 2009


There are despicable boycotts of Israel going on in Europe. One that was pretty small in scale (seemed to only include a handful of demonstrators) was in Wales at Tescos and resulted in the arrest of the perpetrators.

These dummies claim that the settlements are illegal under the Geneva conventions – they’re sadly mistaken. We’ve said time and time again that this is patently false – the Geneva conventions don’t apply to the Israelis and the Palestinians. The controllers of the land for hundreds of years were the Ottomans, who were Muslim, but not Arabs. They were replaced by the Brits after World War One. In 1948, after the first Israel-Arab war, Jordan took control of the West Bank, Egypt took control of Gaza. Palestine never existed as a country! Israel “annexed” the West Bank and Gaza from Egypt and Jordan (who weren’t the rightful “owners” of the land either) after the 1967 war, begun by the Arabs (via daily threats of attack). In 1979, Egypt relinquished its claim to Gaza, and in 1994, Jordan relinquished it’s claim to the West Bank. So, in essense, the idiots in these videos have no clue what they’re talking about. Also, what they’re doing is illegal, which is funny, since they’re complaining that Israel is undertaking illegal activities!

The funniest part about this video is that the woman assumes that since the product comes from the West Bank, it must be from a settlement. She’s being racist herself – she believes that Arabs are not capable of producing goods for the Welsh market!

The next one is worse. It happened in France in March. Somehow, this group of idiots took over a French supermarket and began apparently throwing out merchandise from Israel. While it’s not clear that they actually disposed of the material, it’s quite disturbing that a group of people could cause such a disturbance in a supermarket and not have any type of confrontation with the police. Where are the police??
