Spain Pays for PA's 'Boycott Israel' Ads
inn ^ | 1/11/11 | Maayana Miskin

The Palestinian Authority is running a television ad calling on Arab children to boycott all Israeli goods. The ad is the latest step in a campaign that began with a boycott of goods produced by Jews living in Judea and Samaria.

In the PA ad, translated by Palestinian Media Watch, a young boy walks into a store and overhears the shopkeeper discussing a boycott of Israeli goods. The shopkeeper says that he cannot join the boycott because his customers prefer Israeli products.

The boy then decides to buy a bag of “Israeli chips”, but hears gunfire as he turns to leave, pauses, and returns and asks for “the Palestinian product.”

The clip ends by exhorting viewers, “Don't prolong the occupation's life upon our land.”

The ads were paid for by the Spanish government, the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and Spain's governmental humanitarian aid development organization, AECID.

Spain claims to be bankrupt.

Good to know they have their priorities straight.

Hmmm...

Seeing as how muslims by and large don’t actually PRODUCE anything, there may be some hungry syrian (oops, I mean “palastenian”) spanish pretty soon.

I still don't understand why Spain would do such a thing. Did Islam recapture Spain already? I know they are trying and believe it's just a matter of time until they do.

Israel’s got a quandary here. How do you fight a trade war against an enemy that doesn’t produce anything of value?

Spain is almost as big a pain in the *** as Mexico is.

Spain seems to be accepting its capture by the “Umma” quite well.

They’ve hated the Jews at least since 1492. Not much has changed in Spain.

Their historical memory dims.

They no longer recall that their forefathers lived as the slaves of Islam and under the foot of muslim tyrants for almost eight hundred years.

Spain currently has a radical left-wing government that hates Israel (and the Catholic Church). The country is nearly bankrupt, yet Zapatero has money to burn on his favorite causes, one of which is the “Palestinian resistance” and another of which is the promotion of Islam and the assault on the Catholic Church.

If Spain produced anything, I'd boycott it. Anyone got a list? Thanks Nachum.

The jihadis should man up and take this a step further and they should personally boycott Israeli water . They should stop drinking that water right now .
Just turn off that tap man and stop drinking the Israeli water you are pumping into your cities. You only have to do it for 4 days , just refuse to drink any water for 4 entire days and make sure that you stand outside where people can see you not drink the water for 4 days.

4 days later all rocket problems solved .
The curse that Spain paid for could turn into a blessing. 0.o
(Spain has their own version of 0 stuck in their own WH... obviously the country has lost all their history books too.)

I think the explanation of this issue is pretty simple: a part of the money sent to the PA by the Spanish government is channelled through associations run by Socialist party members, which keep their share for "management costs". It is way of financing themselves.

Please read this post about Fernando Huarte, a Socialist top member in Asturias region and secret service agent:
