Ep27 said:
I only see pro Israeli "shoppers" inciting possible violence here.

how? By being pro Israel and shopping?

The conflict in Palestine is not because Israeli businesses wish to enslave non-Israeli Palestinians to grow tomatoes. If anything several Israeli industries are making a positive impact on non-Israeli Palestinian lives

I respect your opinion on my view, I do however believe that I do not need to explain why I am saying the things I am saying. Surely it must be clear that my view is ONLY with the long term effects in mind.

Long term effects on a global scale drops their economy.
Remember the boycott SA went through? It worked didnt it.
Not everyone supported the boycott but the a lot of the little ones did.

Doubt it will make any impact on their economy....

But you live in this dream world from what I can see.

Boycotts had NOTHING to do with the economic status of South Africa, Sanctions did (to a degree).....

For someone who studied and perhaps achieved a degree in Financial Management (Masters), you are quite arrogant and ignorant. I don't have to search and quote anything, shows how much you appreciate our Constitution. There is nothing to debate here as you cannot even understand the meaning behind "intent", though your intention is very clear in your quest.

I know what is intent but please show me the crime
 
IF you cant afford woolies just say so. Don't go make up stories. Nobody thinks less of you because you can't. Shame man.

produce and argue with facts not propaganda

the facts are that those parts of Palestine which have come under Israeli sovereign control peacefully (so not the occupied territory of Gaza) are economically functional and very successful agriculture has taken hold and is employing thousands of non-Israeli people who enjoy labour rights far beyond the standards enjoyed by labourers in the rest of the region and that this desirability to work on these projects has caused problems with Egypt and Jordan both blocking migrant labour from their country.

Majority of the farms are on the occupied land, so are some of their "popular" factories. They have 3-4 border checks before entering their land and place of work. They then take Palestinian walkways on Palestinian only busses to their desired place of work.
The self sustained fruit and veg sellers barely make much and are only supported by the small Palestinian workforce in Israel.
Sound much like SA in the 70s hey.
 
ToxicBunny said:
No they did not lead to sanctions. The political choices and such in SA led to international sanctions, which played a part in ending Apartheid

This is perhaps closer to the truth than anything else. People who shop at woolworths wont be protesting.
