Boycott Watch, A Great Mitzvah

It's so easy to accuse before investigating all the facts, and in today's world, false accusations can go "viral" destroying reputations and businesses.  According to Jewish Law, spreading the truth violates "lashon haraa,"  "evil speech" and spreading lies is "motzei shem ra," "causing a bad name/reputation."




Fred Taub's Boycott Watch has done a mitzvah, a good deed by clarifying the issue and trying to stop the boycott of Princess Cruise Lines.


Summary: An email is circulating claiming a cruise line is boycotting Israel, but that is not the case. Boycott Watch reviewed the boycott call and we are posting our complete findings here.


It is not uncommon to see boycotts started based on false or incomplete information. Making sure boycott information is accurate is the primary goal of Boycott Watch, thus this report. As part of Boycott Watch being the undisputed leader when in boycott reporting and monitoring, we are also the undisputed experts in the Arab boycott of Israel, about which we have heavily reported. Additionally, our subsidiary site Divestment Watch has been built to monitor the illegal foreign campaign to boycott Israel. That is important to note because this time instead of exposing another illegal or false Israel boycott attempt, we are busting a false claim of a company boycotting Israel. In this report we will show that the claim of Princess Cruises boycotting Israel is false, and therefore the counter-boycott against them is wrong. Let's examine the case and claim. for complete article click here
