Waste of time. It doesn't matter where you buy it. It's a commodity. You would need every single person in the world to agree to do it in order for it to work. Otherwise, the price of Arab oil would decline slightly and then everyone would buy it, forcing the price back up.

I suppose my boycott is more of a personal choice rather than a real hope to affect policy. Personally, I just don't want money that I used to become blood money.

I agree that there is strength in numbers but at the same time the attitude of not making a difference, causes so many people to sit home during Presidential Elections.
I agree with the boycott, it's just another thing that I would do for my own peace of mind.
I'm also vegetarian. I don't expect to make an impact on the "meat" world, but I feel better about myself.
To each, his own.
