Government-led boycotts of Jewish businesses. Hmmm. Where have we heard of such a thing before?
“US plans to label goods from Jewish settlements in occupied West Bank,” by Felicia Schwartz, Financial Times, April 5, 2024:
The Biden administration is drawing up plans to require goods produced in Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank to be clearly labelled as coming from there, according to US officials, another sign of White House unhappiness with the government of Benjamin Netanyahu.
The final go-ahead for the move, and its timing, have not been decided but it is intended to increase pressure on Israel over rising settler violence against Palestinians in the West Bank, and comes amid US frustration with the Jewish state’s conduct of the war in Gaza.
The move would reverse a policy introduced by the Donald Trump administration in 2020 that required goods produced in the West Bank to be labelled as “Made in Israel”….
Taffy says
That’s great! It will allow me to buy these goods and support the Israelis on those settlements. Didn’t antisemitically run Ben and Jerry’s have problems when they pulled a similar stunt?
Ray Jarman says
I still refuse to even contemplate buying any of their crap.

Crap?
Ray Jarman says
Yes and if this was the only ice cream left on earth, I would still never eat it. My steadfastness to Israel not to mention the US means more than something so superficial as ice cream.

Can everyone with a brain boycott Biden on election day ,I know he has the cemetery voting block solid ,but everyone with heart beat please!
Wellington says
Seconded. Joe Biden, the first puppet President in American history and filling out Barack Obama’s third term, though de facto, is a despicable human being, a person with no virtues or laudable abilities. He is a political animal of the worst type and presently has dementia compounding the mediocre brain he has always had and thus the perfect construct for Obamanistas, who are themselves utterly despicable people and who detest traditional America—and Israel.
And yes, anyone voting for Biden, assuming he is still the Democratic nominee for President come November (will be if Dr. Jill, herself a loathsome person in her own right and one engaged in ongoing elder abuse, has her way), is a fool at best, at worst purely malevolent.
It’s come to this in America, i.e., a mostly brain-dead, life-long politician who screws up most everything he touches serving as a substitute President. I blame many for this but I blame one entity above all for this and that is the Democratic Party of the USA which has become (didn’t used to be) the single greatest enemy of America. Meanwhile, Israel should tell Biden and his handlers to eff off.
Bull Herman says
Amen.

Wellington,
Another excellent and well-crafted post.
RegT says
Obama has always hated Israel, and especially Netanyahu, who made him look like the fool that he is on several occasions. He is the one pushing these racist/anti-Israel moves. Biden would certainly go along with them if he was mentally alert enough to pay attention, but this is really all Obama. Biden is essentially just a meat-puppet, drugged awake instead of sedated when he is needed to make an appearance and repeat the tripe that Obama and his pro-Iran harpies want said. This sick regime will be our complete undoing if the DNC is allowed to commit the same massive fraud they pulled off in 2020.
ATH says
Long before they get this organized they’ll be out of government and looking for jobs. BUT… Biden probably can’t be credited for this, he is pretty much out of this and everything else…HOWEVER, let us get a list of the individuals who initiated this and who are involved in the planning. THEY will be the ones to be dealt with next year through the new administration….and dealt with harshly.

101% agreed
Grannya says
Perfectly said, this Great-Gramma can not believe what is happening, I’m afraid plans are already in motion to steal the elections. Asking my family to build fire proof, well stocked safe rooms, I do not trust this president, as for Jill she certainly needs to be in jail for elder abuse.

The “cemetery voting block” is a small part of the dirty ballots (the voter moved or died). All ballots are printed, but only the valid ones are mailed. The dirty ballots are shipped to a voting center and completed. They are used as needed during the election week (used to be a day). It used to only take 2 hours to count the ballots, but it now takes several days especially in swing states. In 2020, 10 million dirty ballots were voted. In Wisconsin, 45,000 dirty ballots were voted, and Biden won by 17,000 ballots. The same thing happened in GA, PA, MI, and AZ. Except AZ had several other election fiascoes as well. Almost every state has as many dirty ballots as valid ballots. Judicial Watch has helped some with their lawsuits. Clean elections are easy, but the problem is not being fixed. For example, don’t have huge voting centers, make them count them at the precinct level (like they used to do). All the precincts should report within a few hours after the polls close. Publish the addresses of the voters who voted. Even better, every ballot should have a number, and we should keep track of the ones voted, because it is well known which ballots are dirty.

What a terrific comment, right on point. Thanks, I laughed out loud!

I will make sure to buy these items!

For a regime that has a cabinet filled with Jews, you would think this would not go over at all.
Kosh's Shadow says
Capos.
Bull Herman says
It should be made law that Hunter Biden’s illegitimate daughter by the stripper be named Biden as presently the family support decree prevents such.
Kosh's Shadow says
Due to “rising settler violence”?
“Settler violence” compared to Palestinian terror is minuscule.
How about having everything from Qatar labeled “Terror supporting Qatar” and let the victims sue Qatar. I hope they get the airline.
Of course, had I been president around Oct 7, I would have told Qatar to hand over the Hamas big-shots to the US or Israel, and all their money to the victims, or we would let victims and families sue Qatar. Oh, Qatar airline, no, you can’t take off. Your plane has been seized in case you don’t pay.
somehistory says
Why is he allowed to “label” anything?
Like others, I believe it will just make it easier for those of us who would rather have things out of Israel as opposed to pakistan, bangladesh, afghanistan, and other mozlum ruined nations which aren’t always apparent. and all of the contaminated and untrustworthy stuff from china.
Yes, big red lettering….red is known to attract more eye attention than other colors…informing that those things are from Israel, where the fight against terror is being waged.
Cato the Elder says
Great, does Joe plan to do his own Kristallnacht, or is he going to let his Brownshirts (BLM & Antifa) handle that?
James Lincoln says
According to the feature article:
“US plans to label goods from Jewish settlements in occupied West Bank”
Fantastic!
Where can I place my online orders?

Tits on a bull is infinitely more manly than Joe Biden ever will be. What a cowardly jerk.

The bidenites are attempting to counter the make America great again coalition with a make the Bund great again coalition. What idiots.
tgusa says
They have gently folded and put their swastika armbands away in their sock drawer and donned a keffiyeh instead. They figured no one would notice if they did it that way.
Major Tom says
In Canada, the Labeling and Marketing Act….federal law, is no longer enforced thanks to a UN treaty that was signed. All ingredients in food had to be declared! Now, foodstuffs have labels which indicate “contains foreign ingredients” but the consumer is not told from what country or what the ingredient is! Madness! And another boycott against Jews is in the works? This does not bode well!
rick says
Biden is using the Michigan Arab voting community as a reason to go full bore on his anti-Semitism. And isn’t his harsh tactics in trying to force Netanyahu into an election and hopefully lose his government more than simply verging on interference with the election of a democratic ally? Obama did the same thing by using US taxpayer money to fund the campaign of a Netanyahu opponent in the Israeli election during his term as President. But this is in the middle of a war to rid Israel of Hamas which the American Government officially lists as a terrorist organization. Biden’s policies are surely aiding Hamas and a cease fire is exactly what Hamas wants. Biden wants to save Hamas from being destroyed. Hard to believe but that is what Biden is calling for – stopping Israel from finishing them off.
tgusa says
There was a time, long time back, way back in the day in the USA where a proposal was proposed that all meat sold in the USA had to have a label stating from where it came. I thought at the time that was a good thing to know. I am not sure what happened to that proposal it just disappeared.
tgusa says
Even today, decades later, I still think it is a good idea. I have always preferred to know where the stuff I want or need is coming from. Yes, it does make a difference for so many reasons that I wont get in to here.
somehistory says
Some biased goons in Congress wanted to make sure that corrupted meat could still reach the consumer.
So, if some cattle guy in Argentina, Brazil, or china, had mad cow, he could still profit when those cows made it to America. And some of that profit would make it to the pockets of the biased goons.

The Biden Administration will do everything except address the Nations needs and concerns (Immigration, Economy, Education, Healthcare, etc. Any out will do,
