It’s called “gradualism”, and this is just another small step, but it is another step, after decades now of increasing European antisemitism.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_boycott_of_Jewish_businesses

This is how it happened during the Nazi regime as well. Look under “Earlier Boycotts” to see how slowly and methodically it happened.

In the current day, here is a timeline of international BDS actions:

And finally, a good article by National Review:

“Why Progressive Anti-Semitism — and Why Now?”

Marvin do you think anyone who disagrees with you is an antisemite?

Is that it..I’ve seen you play the card frequently

This article infers Europe is about to label ALL JEWISH GOODS....period.

Now when one looks at the article one can see very quickly it’s about goods from the West Bank

Which although lamentable is a helluva lot different than ALL JEWISH GOODS

which I found very alarming that Europe would attempt to do this to all Jewish owned or made products

No more movies hardly except Bollywood and what about Lafite Rothschild....perish that thought for real wine lovers

Now I find that a very misleading headline meant to provoke

My assertion bothers the beejezuss out of you....like you wrote the headline yourself....

This then leads to my lauding Israel in several paragraphs

Which leads to you insinuating I’m an anti Semite

Despite zero evidence and plenty to the contrary

Including probably unlike you I spent enough time in Israel working with Israeli partners and girlfriends and a great experience I have more authority to comment than probably 95% of posters here

Further I’m a Deep South southerner and a Non pious traditionalist Christian righty which means my “tribe” supports Israel through its voting habits for the right leaning party about 85-92% of the time and our churches give to Israel charities like IDF vets etc ....in fact my wife and I have given to FIDF

https://www.fidf.org/

Some do out of religious kinship and some do it out of cultural affinity and a few like me for personal reasons mainly because of the cultural and I have pals there still

No other demographic here including American Jews or Catholics does that to the degree we do and Israelis appreciate it

Netanyahu is on record expressing affection for southern evangelicals that stand with Israel almost in total

So Marvin take your Hitler card or anti Semite card and shove it up your butt so your eyes can read it and maybe you’ll learn when it’s appropriate and when it’s not

Have a nice Sunday

I’m going to the pool with my rib and two of my five pickneys

Let it all hang out, warddady. Standard filth from the walking army of those abnormally fixated on Israel.

You wrote:

If I wrote the same filth to you, the 'adminstrators' would quickly ban me.

You are FIXATED on Israel. You posting shows that.

If you don't want anybody to answer your crap, start your own site, or get the FR adminstrators to ban anyone who doesn't grovel for your fixation.

If the shoe fits, wear it.

In the 1930s, Hollywood kissed Hitler’s ass, so they wouldn’t lose access to the German market.

Are the labels going to be in the shape of yellow stars of David?

Also the German-American market as the German-American Bund was active and growing throughout the US right up to Pearl Harbor. Herr Hitler was a ‘rock star” in the US at the time.

I've exchanged views for years, more accurately decades, and despite disagreements on issues, usually unrelated to Israel of which he's been supportive, he's no antisemite.

That said, the headline in inflammatory, there's no anticipated ban on Jewish made products. Hate to defend western Europe, a region where one can't safely wear a kippah.

I don’t know that it is misleading. Their point is that 2 items from the same geographic location will have different labels depending on who produced it. If a Jew made it, it will say “made in Israeli colonies” but if a Muslim made it it will say “made in Palestine”. Seems to be accurate.

"Title should have read: Products from Israeli occupied Palestinian lands to be labeled as such"

Who's misleading and silly? Here's a map of the West Bank:

The the UN and the EU may call all those scattered tiny patches "a single territorial unit" - but honest people can see through that fraud. Those patches live on the same Israeli electric power, water, sewers and roads as the rest of the West Bank. The distinction is really only religious (Jew vs Non-Jew). And honest people will not ignore the fact that most Palestinians and their leaders actually believe all of Israel since 1949 has been occupied Palestinian land.

Any policy allowed to be used today against Jews in the West Bank will be tried against all Jews in Israel eventually.
