US activists urge boycott of Israeli companies - 15 Feb 09

Bahai144
International outrage at the war on Gaza has triggered calls to boycott, divest and sanction Israel.

Just this week, student activists at a small US college said they persuaded their university to divest from corporations that support Israeli occupation.

A movement like the one that ended South African apartheid may be tough to build in the US. But it could be gathering steam.

      *Sigh* ~ received this from Mount_Zion,sent on Sat, 25 Apr 2009 17:38:40 +0000

      notice the comment in (parenthesis are mine) by Mount_Zion..A case of collusion perhaps?

      "OK I am over it, I dont care about the Jews or Muslims. My grandparents are Polish. They can do whatever they want but I didnt like the one sided bias by Kuffar. Everything he would post was with a Jewish spin on it. It made everyone really upset almost in everypost he had. "(So people would send each other comments saying we should just post the opposite sides view.)" He actually hurt his cause alot more by making people hate Israel over liking it. It made me pay attention and read the threads about it and all i saw was the Israeli's fighting a poorly armed group in Gaza. I am done posting that bs since he is gone. All I did was copy a few things that people said to him that pissed him off and kept reapeating it. No offense intended. Thanks Goodman"

      Another : perhaps meant as a racist remark?

    • "kuffar" you're really stuck in a bog of radical, political nationalism. Have you been educated in the religion of Moses? Do you have any actual affiliation with the Jewish Religion that Moses Revealed? Do you know that the Jewish people were promised by The One True God whom Moses was the Interlocutor for, that David's line would endure forever and there would always be a descendant of his to be seated upon the throne? You should also be aware that there is a stern, harsh punishment provided for Israel by God if her people should happen to reject their King. Israel has indeed rejected Her King for many generations and as a result has since been living under the curse of God. It should then be clear to you that in it's present condition, Israel has fallen from the heights of human achievement to the depths of human depravity all because of her peoples collective rejection of God's Covenant with Her. First Solomon bowed down before a statue (idol) of the Babylonian wife of Nimrod and brought God's curse down upon Israel. Then Nebuchadnezzar was sent by God to crush and scatter Israel for Her disobedience to God and the 10 northern tribes were taken by him into captivity in what is now Iraq, Iran and Azerbaijan. The tribes of Judah and Benjamin were left in the Middle East but the Davidic King at the time along with his court and family members were taken north with the 10 so called "lost" tribes along with the Ark of the Covenant which may or may not have been "lost" in transit though we have it on good authority that it was indeed lost and was recovered during the Iran/Iraq war by an expeditionary force of Saddam Hussein's military. Nebuchadnezzar left Jerusalem in a pile of dust and destroyed the Temple utterly. We all know what remains of that. The Aaronic Priesthood has long since ended so with all these ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS lost because of Israel's defiance toward God and Her violation of His Covenant, Israel finds Herself in the miserable condition She is in as a pariah among humanity. As a consequence, nothing Israel does will have anything but an unfortunate outcome for Israel Herself and the rest of the planet. Israel need not remain in this tragic condition. Warfare, military might, economic strength and political support from any number of nations will not improve Her desperate condition one iota and if pursued as the means to a solution to Israel's problems will result in dragging the entire world of humanity down into the pit of mire and muck which is Israel's curse as decreed by GOD until Israel turns and accepts Her King, and thereby begins the process of the healing of the nations with the restoration of the Temple (which has already been built) and the placement of the Ark of the Covenant within the Holy of Holies (which has already happened) and the return of the High Priest (who has already come). It is all here waiting for the remainder of the tribes to be gathered unto it. Where are the true people of Judah? Why do you insist upon rejecting your Davidic King "kuffar"?

      Look, if the Jewish people would turn to the one who is their King and abandon their secular, materialistic and atheist political aspirations and come under the Covenant of Baha'u'llah they will truly become the world leaders they could be. But until they do this they will only inspire hatred among the rest of the world. This is plain Biblical fact and is supported by other volumes of Sacred Hebrew Texts. If you want the Jewish people to be loved by all the world then be one who makes the 180 degree turn back to your King and your Lord God who ordained your King and leave your atheistic, secular, materialist ways. It's a simple choice and a simple act but it must be done with sincerity and purity of heart. Don't be an atheist, secular, political Zionist, BE JEWISH, one of the tribe of Judah. Recognize your King who is seated on the throne of David.

      Well as factual as the report in the link you provided is, and it is, this little band of protesters is just acting locally and networking with others who are likely aware of these same stats. Just the same it never hurts to heap the truth up since the lies are piled high as mountains these days. Thanks and Keep it coming.

      Another vague response, give me something with some meat on it. What's a Semite? Stands to reason that if one doesn't know what a Semite is that one can't possibly know what an Anti-Semite is. I would just like to get your definition of what defines a Semite?

      Being that you persist,

      The word "anti-Semitism" is inadequate. It is a misnomer. The word was coined in 1879 from the Greek words "anti", meaning "against" and "Semite", meaning a descendant of Shem. The word was first used by Wilhelm Marr a German agitator, who created it to explain the current anti-Jewish campaigns in Europe. Since the Arab peoples are also Semitic people it is not the best expression. Anti-Jewish, and Jew- hatred, are more descriptive. It is more than just prejudice. The word came into general use in the past hundred years and encompasses all forms of hostility manifested toward Jews throughout history.

      The last sentence is in the context to which I imply.

      Right it's a term which has a very specific meaning and the ignorant have co-opted it as a buzzword and the now common or vulgar use of it is nothing but plain bullshit. The Zionazi's are the most anti-semitic people in the world as witnessed by their crimes against the Arab Semites attest to in the stark light of day. And yet they still falsely cry "anti semite!" when called out for their crimes against humanity. And they have absolutely no Biblical claim to anything they put forth as their "right" to occupy the land of the Semitic Peoples. What reason do you give in support of the apostate Zionazi's claim to their right to those lands and to slaughter those Semites who have been there for thousands of years? If you say anything Biblical I will demonstrate it to be completely unsupported by anything scriptural as nothing in the Bible supports the Apostate of Israel Zionazi's claims. Otherwise you could just say something like "Whatever you need to tell yourself", but I'm still hoping for something substantive. See if you're up to it.

      So you degenerate into that. Fall back to your original statement which you apparently don't have the ability to defend, and cursing. As I said, no person who supports the Apostate State of Israel and it's crimes against humanity can defend it with clear, rational, historically or scripturally based proofs and valid arguments. Many supporters of this Golem Government are Christians who are utterly and tragically misinformed about what their own Bible says about Israel because they take their lessons from their absolutely corrupt clergy who lie to them about every other religion and extort money from them by the millions while they the masses never bother to look into what the Bible truly says about Israel. The U.S. government supports Israel at it's core because in their ignorance they actually are convinced that this Apostate State of Israel is supported by Biblical scriptures and that to oppose it is to oppose God. The funny(?) thing is that if this current "State of Israel" was the true one rather than the Apostate one, both of which are referred to in the Bible, then their assertion regarding support of that state would actually be true. It would behoove you and all those who support the Apostate State of Israel to avail yourselves of the truth in this matter and become educated in it. And do it quickly. For your own sakes.

      So you've asserted before. It's that attitude in international relations which cause and perpetuate wars. The one who gives up and ends the dialogue is the one who begins the war. So it's been throughout history. Enjoy Armageddon.

      NO no no, not any religious prediction at all, that's a Biblical thing. We're already in the war that will include the battle of Armageddon so its really in progress as we speak. Just hard to find people here who are able to have an intelligent dialogue about such matters and I had thought you might be one but I guess you don't have any zeal about you. You give up so quickly. Anyway no hard feelings bro, I know you have good qualities more so than many here it seems. Salaam Alekum.
