Indulging Israel hasn't worked, maybe boycott will

How long will Netanyahu act like Putin, Erdogan and Berlusconi, but ask to be rewarded like Nelson Mandela?

And it came to pass, when Benjamin Netanyahu held up his hand, that Israel prevailed, and when he let his hand down, the boycott prevailed. But Netanyahu’s hands were heavy. So Isaac Herzog and Yair Lapid stayed up his hands – the one on the one side, and the other on the other side.

I wouldn’t attribute any importance to the position of the two doppelgangers. In a place where Netanyahu stands, the moral left won’t stand; you will always walk alone in your path, Bibi. At any moment when a different voice is necessary, that’s precisely when they say “amen” to him – “There’s no left or right, and we must stand together.” But they don’t represent us; you won’t find us in the ranks of the choir. With leaders of the opposition like this, who needs toadies?

Because this is what we expected them to say: You, Bibi, you’re the one who’s bringing disaster down upon us. You were “strong against Hamas” and you destroyed Iran with your words, and in your eyes we were as collaborators, who are forbidden to enter the congregation or the coalition. There’s absolutely nobody better than you; you’re a cannon whose targeting system is off, and instead of shelling our boycotters, you’re firing on our own forces. And the bombshell you fired – “No Palestinian state will be established during my tenure” – can’t be put back into its maw. Did Orange CEO Stephane Richard succeed in retracting, in your view?

So go with your own power, and the power of Sheldon Adelson and Haim Saban and Dr. Miriam Adelson, but without us. Let’s see you do it on your own. After all, Jewish tycoons from Las Vegas were always known for their enormous influence over college students in California.

“The world” isn’t anti-Jewish or anti-Israel, and there’s no “delegitimization campaign against our very existence.” BDS is a negligible organization that doesn’t smell nice and sometimes stinks. True, anti-Semites haven’t disappeared, and like vultures they flock to carrion. But who’s the one who’s feeding them? Who’s the one leaving easy prey in the fields for them?

The opposite is true, Bibi, the exact opposite: No state has every benefited from such a generous allotment of consideration as Israel has, and the Green Line border has long since won total international recognition. For 48 years they’ve been explaining to us politely that control over another people can’t continue forever, and that the settlements would be an obstacle to us; but it’s as if we didn’t understand what they were telling us. We didn’t give a damn, and they finally broke.

Any other country would have been punished long ago, even a great power like Russia that invades Crimea and Donbass. Only Israel wasn’t; they discriminate in our favor because of the Holocaust. But new generations are arising which knew not Hitler, and therefore we’ve fallen into overdraft in our account with history.

The impression made by “the only democracy in the Middle East” is also fading, because this is how our democracy, which won hearts only yesterday, looks today: It doesn’t tolerate minorities that go to the polls in droves; it can’t digest a “subversive opposition”; it harasses human rights organizations and “left-wing NGOs”; it limits freedom of expression by law; it shuts artists’ mouths; it imprisons refugees without trial and deports them for no fault of their own; it plots to segregate passengers on buses; it hands its army over to the ayatollahs of the hesder yeshivas; and it abandons its commitment to freedom of worship in Jerusalem. Jewish zealots attack Christian pilgrims at the Tomb of David, who himself never knew where he was buried, and demand that they stop the Last Supper in the middle.

Israel – it’s not what you imagined. And the international community is sick to death of its arrogance and presumption, its lies and manipulations. How long will Netanyahu act like Putin, Erdogan and Berlusconi, but ask to be rewarded like Nelson Mandela?

It’s not just that the settlements have sprouted like mushrooms after every acid rain, but now, they’re even asking us to fertilize them – to buy their honey, their wines and their cheeses. What common sense didn’t do, perhaps the boycott will do; boycott, let’s have it. t on.

Adelson and Saban told us in their joint interview about the feast fit for kings that they consumed before embarking on their holy war, and curiosity is consuming us: Which of the items on their table was a product of the greater Land of Israel? Did they order takeaway from the dairies of Sussia and the vineyards of Yitzhar? What goes down their throats over there as smoothly as oil is stuck in our throats over here like a stolen olive – or as some would say, “like a piece of shrapnel in the ass.”

Spot on, well done Yossi Sarid, you're a hero for standing up to Bibi.

What a load of garbage and anyone who advocates boycotting a nation blames all Jews and Arabs alike in that nation. The fact is the BDS advocates for a one state solution, one where Israel does not exist. The last time we saw a nation boycott the Jews was the Nazis, but then the extreme left are the defenders of terrorists. If you want to have sanctions placed on the guilty people, so be it I have no problem with this, but making a nation culpable whilst ignoring the countless abuses by other nations in the world clearly shows the worst hypocrisy possible. The double standards displayed by the extreme left and Muslims is not only disgusting but ignores the plight daily of the countless abuses that goes on in Muslim nations. This is why the world is now waking up to this new for of left wing Nazism, one that would see the eradication of the Jews.

What people fail to see is the idiotic religious aspect of the problem in this conflict. On the one hand you have the religious Zionist belief that the land has been ordained by God. On the other a belief that Allah has ordained the land to the Muslims. It is an argument formed from myths over who should own a land and control it. I do not back any of the settlements. I do back the right of the descendants of many Israeli Jews who bought land legally to have self determination. I back the right of many of the descendants of Arab immigrants to the area to also have self determination. Hence only calls for a boycott come from people of hate, a legacy of the Nazi's. Thankfully now people are beginning to see past this new Nazi strategy of the extreme left and taking the fight back to them and we never allow these extreme lefty, self hating Jews and Islamists, the later of which who's sole goal is to bring theocracy and deny people rights in the land of Israel.

So you didn't agree with the boycott of S.Africa or Iraq then? Because the West's boycott of Iraq (ie sanctions) is known to have cause the death of hundreds of thousands of Iraqi children.

No I do not agree with any boycott of a nation as you are making all suffer for the actions of some. You are even then making the Israeli Arabs suffer. You make sanctions to those culpable like as seen what is happenning in Russia. Many suffered in Iraq and then the west made the people suffer even further, which you fail to grasp. They only bring further resentment and achieve very little.

But when there is a hatred for a certain race then people don't care that everyone suffers , hate is a very strong emotion , seeing others suffer feeds that hate .
