4,748 Palestinians have been killed, 948 of them are children, they are killed and tortured with weapons brought by traded by the US/ EU and the UK. Brought with money made by selling things like Israeli dates. How many more Muslims need to become another statistic in this ongoing suffering of our brothers and sisters? How long before you do something?

Sunday 7th September 3pm

Excellent Video, but can you do one without music, try Quranic recitation or if you must then a nasheed for the background instead.

Well Done MPAC. :)

Pass the kleenex.

Remember:

Boycott Carmel, Jordon River/King Solomon.

I would also add boycott dates being sold loose in the shops and ask your shopkeeper why he stocks Israeli dates in the first place. Also ask yourself why you keep shopping there.

Er... I can think of at least two possible meanings for that.

Why only boycott dates? Why not everything Israeli? I don't understand why you are focussing only on dates.

really? I can't. Maybe your skeptic mindframe has narrowed the way you perceive simple and straight forward messages. The video probably never affected you in any way. You have no compassion. Talk about something relevant next time.

Mork calling Olson: You'll find many muslims are doing that anyway - boycotting Israeli goods!

It is a good idea - a way of making a difference from here, rather than moaning and *****ing about Israel - do something. Boycott Israeli goods now! All of them!

Great video.

I've already made sure that my Father's shop does not sell these. My father has also spoken to a few other shop-keepers in London who have also agreed to stop. I have yet to check them out as I don't shop their often (why should I, i go to my dad's plaec :)

Because its Ramadan and dates are the one of the top (if not THE top) item on Muslim shopping lists.

"Because its Ramadan and dates are the one of the top (if not THE top) item on Muslim shopping lists"

I realise that but it won't do very much to damage the Israeli economy (if that's the aim of the boycott - or is it to just to raise awareness?). There are much bigger business interests which could be boycotted, like when Barclays was boycotted for its business in South Africa - as I recall it was very effective. OK, it didn't put an end to apartheid but it made Barclays think about it. I think apartheid coming to an end meant they didn't have to close their banks in SA, but they got very bad publicity. No, there's plenty more to boycott.

it was just a synonym of moaning - nothing particularly rude, and I'm quite calm. What about the further boycott - isn't that the point?

Look at Olson, how he relentlessly wants to divert attention from the main issue and the point of this video.

That IS the point of the article. Have I missed something?

Clever Tesco stocks dates, with packets saying produce of 'West Bank'.

Sorry, is that a Country?

Can you imagine Iranian produce being sold in an Israeli shop?

Whilst the Wahabis are piously hitching their pyjamas (sorry, trousers), the Zionists are busily killing Palestinians, thieving their land, and growing dates. In the meantime 'ulema' are eating them.

Every Muslim shop should display a notice above any dates saying: 'Not from Israel'. Muslims should boycot all shops during Ramadan, which stock Israeli goods.

Guys please quit your petty arguments over an important issue involving human lives and major global injustice. The point is, are you pro-Israel or not? And if not, then why chose to throw money at them at all?

Olson is a Zionist - dont trust him. He may come across reasonable but he has an agenda.

He tried to make out he was muslim in another thread.

My pretending to be a Muslim consisted of saying Eid Mubarak instead of Ramadan Mubarak in my first post. I have not pretended to be anything. Again, you call me a 'Zionist' and when I asked for an explanation you said it was someone who who goes to Israel and steals Palestinian land, I think. Do you mean PA land? That must mean the settler movement? Or is a Zionist someone who believes in the right of an Israel (the one that there is) to exist? Can you please explain what you mean by it? MPAC articles use it too. I 've asked in another post also.
(PS - I'm glad that you recognise that my posts are reasonable - whether you think I'm pretending or not).
