BDS Is BS (video)

Thanks, as so often, to Shirlee, who alerted me to this one, by a new fightback group:


  1. 'BDS is BS'

    I want the T-shirt! (made in Israel, of course!) :)

  2. Apparently ‘We are Synonomous’ is multi-faith who counter the boycott and protest activities of anti-Israel groups who try to shut down stores and businesses that do business with Israel or carry Israeli-made goods. ‘We are Synonomous’ says,


    We are the people of God.

    We are the people that seek to end anti-Semitism.

    We are the people that hid the Jews from the Nazis.

    We are the churches.

    We are the synagogues.

    We are synonymous.

    Expect us.

    1. Thanks for sharing this!

      "Synonomous" also has a video about Lavan and I think that big kudos go to Shanie Bar of Levan for successfully fighting BDS. There is a FB page: We are All Shanie Bar Oz.

  3. Jean Patrick Grumberg tells the following story here;

    "...L’année dernière, un marchand de chaussures canadien qui avait eu l’audace de vendre une marque israélienne avait été la cible d’un violente campagne de boycott qui bloquait son magasin, pour le forcer à la faillite s’il ne retirait pas les produits juifs.
    Un matin, une femme s’est présentée avec un journaliste, et elle a acheté pour l’équivalent de 3000 euros de chaussures, qu’elle a ensuite offert à des œuvres. Le lendemain, des centaines de canadiens, solidaires de ce patron qui refusait de courber la tête, passaient commande de chaussures au magasin. Ni le patron du magasin, ni la cliente à l’origine de cette vague de soutien, n’étaient juifs..."

    Briefly translated;

    Last year a Canadian shoe shop, selling Israel-made shoes was the target of a violent
    Campaign by the BDS who tried thus to force him into banquerotte should he not take off jewish products from his shop.

    One morning a woman came with a journaliste and bought 3000 Euros worth of shoes which alle distributed to charities. The next day, hundreds of Canadiens started buying shoes from this shop in solidarity with the shop owner who did not bow to the black mail. Neither the shop owner nor the customer who bought all those shoes and started this wave of support were jewish.

  4. whoops;

    I meant to say : bankruptcy (not 'banquerotte'.

  5. I followed this story. Vlad Tepes covered it extensively.

    Canadians, apart from the rat bags at York University are in the main pro-Israel.
