What's Really Behind All the Anti-Israel Boycotts?

Food for thought...

Dry Bones, European Boycott

Think about it.  It doesn't seem to be a moral point.  Europeans are typical of the others who look for any excuse to boycott Israel.  There's an agenda behind the pompous pronouncements. 

They certainly don't believe in freedom of choice, free market etc. because they literally terrorize people who defy them, like entertainers who had contracted to perform in Israel.  The latest of cancel, just days before his performance is Eric Burdon, former lead singer of the British band The Animals.  Those actions are fascist, certainly not peace-loving or liberal.

Another example is the total hypocrisy of the countries that have banned shechita, the proscribed way of Jewish animal slaughter.  Every single one of those countries permits hunting.  Now there is nothing more cruel to animals than hunting.  If those countries really cared about animal rights, hunting would be forbidden.  But they don't care about animal rights nor cruelty to animals.  They just want the Jews to leave their country.  That's called racism, anti-Semitism.

And another point.  How many countries in the European Union, for example, still rule over various "colonies" in other parts of the world?  Just a few years ago Great Britain went to war with Argentina over the Falkland Islands, which are next to Argentina.  Britain rules that piece of land, and there's no reason they should be there at all.
Sovereignty over the Falkland Islands (Islas Malvinas in Spanish) is disputed between Argentina and the United Kingdom.
The British claim to sovereignty dates from 1690, and the United Kingdom has exercised de facto sovereignty over the archipelago almost continuously since 1833. Argentina has long disputed this claim, having been in control of the islands for a brief period prior to 1833. The dispute escalated in 1982, when Argentina invaded the islands, precipitating the Falklands War.
Israel and the Jewish People have a long documented history of thousands of years of continued connection to the Land of Israel including what's sometimes called the "West Bank," Judea and Samaria.

None of the countries preaching "morality" to us have histories as long as ours.  We count our history in millennia (thousands of years,) while they at most count in centuries (hundreds of years.)

There is only one way to end these attacks on our country, our sovereignty and right to be here is for the Israeli Government to declare all countries participating as enemies.  Their diplomats should be sent packing, and our ambassadors should come home.
