"Boycott Israel" Epic Fail as liquor store sells entire inventory of Israeli wine in 30 minutes

[Alouette]

Pro-Palestinian activists who picketed a Toronto liquor store got more than they bargained for as customers swarmed the store and bought out the entire inventory of Israeli wine in 30 minutes.

The Canadian version of "Freedom Riders" motorcycle club was also present.

If they start any of this “boycott Israeli products” stuff here, I’m going out of my way to do the opposite.

[Jewbacca]

That’s hillarious.

[exist]

Nothing that pro-Palestinian professors with ties to radical Islam can’t fix.

[Red_Devil 232]

Wow! Great turn out! I love your comments on the video! I will be at a U.S. Tea Party on the 15th.

[supremedoctrine]

An “Epic Fail” indeed!
That is a LOVELY story!
Just the way to answer this pathetic “boycott”.
I think they may have learned something from this;
unfortunately, it may turn them toward violence next time, which would be no surprise, since it’s what they’re good at.

Reminds me of the time the gay activists got on the case of orange juice from Florida when the growers association started advertising on the Rush Limbaugh store. They announced a boycott of some super market here in the state and at the appointed time a bunch of people, way more than the number of those there to protest, arrived and promptly bought ALL the orange juice from Florida in the store!

That was the last time THAT tactic was tried in the Sunshine State!

[JSteff]

A Victory for the good guy's (and ladies)! Go Isreal!

[Ezekiel]

Pathetic puerile Pathostinians promote purchases of palate-pleasing Israeli products ping.

[autumnraine]

I find this SOOOO funny. I hope they try that crap here. I’m going to be loaded down with Israeli stuff I’ll probably never drink.

[DannyTN]

ROFLMAO Excellent!

[Radix]

I hope that they call for a boycott on tomatoes from Israel. I buy them anyhow, and I’d be certain to get a few extra for the cause.

I just watched the first video.

I am made sick by seeing terrorist supporters in my country, but I am buoyed by the actions of the Jewish Canadians.

Thanks for posting.

[Bahbah]

I shall keep my eye out for any similar thing in my area and shall do likewise.

Talk about a back fire :)

[fanfan]

Check this out ping.

[dynachrome]

LOL. I dunno about Israeli wine though. Is it drinkable?

[fanfan]

I don't know, I drink beer.

Anything the Israelis do, they do well, however, so I bet it's good. (For wine.)

Alouette?

[bamahead]

NICE! I'd love to see a headline in an Israeli newspaper read:
"Hamas apologists cause drinking binge"!

[Alouette]

I dunno about Israeli wine though. Is it drinkable?

Israeli wine is awesome! The Golan Heights wines are especially excellent. It's not your grandmother's Manischevitz.

[dynachrome]

Cool. What variety ya recommend should the pali idiots try that here?

[Alouette]

Yarden Chardonnay from the Golan Heights is excellent.

[dynachrome]

I’ll keep it in mind. I don’t drink much wine. Gimme a Guinness!

[fanfan]

LOL!

“Hamas sells Israeli wines”

[fanfan]

Great thread, eh Bahbah?

You doing well?

[Bahbah]

Yes, fanfan, thanks for asking.

Although it is allergy season, so I sneeze a lot.

Hope all is well with you.

[Cicero]

I don’t often literally laugh out loud as I sit at my computer, but I did this time.

Great story!

[fanfan]

LOL!

If it’s not snow, it’s allergy season.
Aren’t the seasons great?

We had spring last week, snow this week, and spring expected again by Friday. Fitting, eh?

The daffodils are holding up. ;-)

[Bahbah]

We had spring last week, snow this week, and spring expected again by Friday. Fitting, eh?

LOL. Same here.

Heh heh...

No doubt, they will now consider blowing it up.

[Eleutheria5]

“LOL. I dunno about Israeli wine though. Is it drinkable?” Not only is it drinkable, some of it is top notch, comparable with the products of vineyards in Spain, Italy and France.

[My Favorite Headache]

I gotta wonder...Geddy Lee right there in Toronto...Jewish... parents in the holacaust...if he took part in any of this. His wine collection alone is over 50,000 bottles.

[fanfan]

Nice, eh?

[Convert from ECUSA]

I second Alouette’s statement. I had some GREAT wine when I visited Israel, and I had some excellent beer as well.

[Springman]

Good thread.

For us, I've been having fun w/unemployment, working one week, off the next.

Also, Mrs. Springman was in a car accendent, broke her right hand.

Well at least she was driving the pick-up, my car, I don't want to think about it.

[fanfan]

Oh, brother!

You two have tons of luck, all of it bad.

Ya gotta change that, Springman!

When was the accident?

[timsbella]

Chag Sameach, Alouette! I second your choice in wines. Nice to know my “back yard” (TO) is being well supported. Thanks for the post.

[rahbert]

I brought some Yarden Chard back with me the last time
I was there - um, yes drinkable with some added fruit
juice or diet sevenup
