Capitulations Only Bring More Pressure:

It has been a difficult year for Israel. Under heavy pressure from Obama, and more recently from the EU, Israel has made a series of high profile capitulations. The Obama-forced apology to Turkey, the nonsensical PLO murderer release, the bending to EU's economic blackmail on "settlement guidelines". Israel has not even earned itself a minimal return such as the release of Pollard (see video below). These unwise one-sided concessions have only brought more pressure on Israel including a wave of academic boycotts and ever-intensifying PLO incitement and media bias. In 1967 the US, Europe, and the UN made a commitment to Israel under UN Resolution 242 guaranteeing it "secure and recognized boundaries", not restricting it to 1967 lines as the anti-Israel Obama has wrongly insisted. To retain Jewish sovereignty over Judea and Samaria, the heart of Israel, will require taking a stand. The sooner Israel realises that the beter. 12/30/13


Boycott All Links to Anti-Israel Media:

The anti-Israel media are desperate to get you to follow them online. The NY Times, LA Times, Washington Post, Time Magazine, CNN, etc. now earn considerable income from companies that advertise on their websites. Every time you visit their website or click on a link to their website you are helping contribute to those ad revenues. Refuse to click or send out any link to anti-Israel media.

Iran Gets to Fool the World a Second Time:

Obama's moslem sympathies and his weakness in foreign policy made him the worst possible president to get tough with Iran. Iran is on the verge of developing a nuclear bomb within weeks. Obama and the West have caved in to Iran's demand to continue enriching uranium while relieving the sanctions pressure which had been increasingly effective in bringing it to the negotiating table. In their haste to pander to Iran's charm offensive, the anti-Israel media and the political hypocrites of the West were silent over leader Khameini's latest racist attacks on Israel. Kerry is left insisting to an angry Israel that it is "safer" while Israeli ministers are united in codemning the sanctions relief for next to nothing in return. Iran fooled the world with its nuclear pledge in 2003 and now it gets to do it again. 11/25/13


Boycott CSUN Until It Stops Promoting Boycott of Israel:

The Administration at CSU Northridge, led by its President Dianne Harrison, is promoting an extremist anti-Israel anti-semitic boycott of Israel from a "Boycott Israel Resource Page" on the CSUN website (see below). The source of the page is Professor Klein a man with apparently extremist anti-Israel views. For the last several years the brave leaders of a group called AMCHA have been battling anti-Israel anti-semitic extremism on California campuses. AMCHA has fought to have Klein's webpage removed but they have run into a wall of stubborness and obstruction from Harrison. CSUN recently admitted Klein's page was posted without their permission but are still refusing to remove it. Please write to Harrison at presofc@csun.edu to demand CSUN remove Klein's webpage and CC us at jointheboycott@inbox.com - see example. We also urge alumni and other donors to boycott CSUN and withhold donations until CSUN stops promoting the boycott of Israel. 10/15/13


Anti-Israel LA Times Posting More Content Online:

The gathering and presenting of news has changed dramatically over the last decade. Today, the primary source of news for most Americans and the world is online. The LA Times is typical. Most of its articles on Israel are now posted online, and many do not even appear in print. The commercial imperative in this digital revolution is website advertising. Each time you click on a
link to a LA Times online article you help generate ad revenues for the paper. The boycott of the anti-Israel LA Times therefore extends to their website meaning boycotters should avoid clicking on links that indicate the source is the LA Times. Occasionally links are disguised and you may find you arrived at the LA Times by accident. We recommend you close the window and be cautious in the future about clicking on links from the same source. Newspapers also earn revenue by charging a digital subscription for their content. We urge you not to subscribe and to urge your friends who have purchased digital subscriptions to cancel - see Honor Roll. LAT snapshot © mediapost.com 10/7/13


Obama Policy: Avoid Conflict At All Cost

After signalling to the world that he is not ready to use military force in Syria, and by implication against Iran, President Obama is now entering into a rapprochement with Iran. Rouhani, Iran's leader, achieved this breakthrough after he embarked on a so-called 'charm offensive' with a speech at the UN followed up by a call to the President. The results of Obama's surrender of military deterrent are already becoming evident. Despite the US-Russia-Syria agreement for Assad to give up his chemical weapons, Syria is all-too-predictably showing signs it is not going to do so. Obama continues to appear to be without a coherent foreign policy other than the avoidance of conflict at all cost to his and US credibility and interests. The Iranian move had Israel's PM Netanyahu hurrying to the UN to rebut Rouhani's manipulations, calling Rouhani a wolf in sheep's clothing, and exhorting the UN to maintain sanctions against Iran to prevent it acquiring nuclear weapons (see video below). 10/3/13


EU Showing Increasing Adversity Toward Israel:



The long PLO biased European Union is showing increasing adversity toward Israel. A recent EU enactment promotes the Arab boycott requiring discriminatory labeling of Israeli goods from Judea and Samaria, though nogotiations with the EU are ongoing. Most recently a delegation of EU agitators masquerading as "diplomats" flouted an Israeli High Court ruling, that an unuathorized Bedouin encampment was illegal, by attempting to deliver tents to the Bedouin. When Israeli soldiers stopped them a French diplomat, Marion Castaing, punched an IDF soldier (see video above). An understandably angry Israel will expel Castaing and is demanding an explanation from the EU. Meanhwile the media has of course taken the EU side including the BBC which strains exhaustively not to use the word "punch" in describing the assault. 10/2/13

Deepening Syria Crisis Working to Iran's Advantage:

The deepening of the Syria crisis combined with the vacillation of a President who has a foreign policy credibility problem in the best of times is working to Iran's advantage. While Iran draws critically close to developing a nuclear weapon Obama appears to be without a definable strategy to stop them despite his numerous declarations that Iran's doing so would cross a red line. Noticeably defficient in Obama's statements are stern warnings to Iran not to use Syria as an excuse to attack Israel, something Iran has explicitly stated it will do. 9/3/13


Another Capitulation to Obama Has Friends of Israel Bewildered:

Another in a series of spectacular capitulations to US pressure and the second one in just 5 months, sees Israel releasing 104 PLO terrorist prisoners in stages, scores of them murderers, for nothing in return. Not even the release of Jonathan Pollard! This follows March's sudden capitulation to Obama who manipulatively sought to endear himself to the Israeli public in order to extract a wholly undeserved Israeli apology to Turkey over the Gaza flotilla incident (Turkey owes Israel an apology). Both these major and unjustified concessions are hugely unpopular in Israel and have left Friends of Israel abroad bewildered. Some commentators speculate that Israel agreed to the PLO prisoner release to gain US support for a strike against Iran, as if US policy on a nuclear Iran hinged on the release of PLO murderers sitting in Israeli prisons! Families of PLO terror victims are rightly furious and have protested vehemently. 8/17/13



At LA Times Deportation is a Human Rights Issue in Israel Only:

At the anti-Israel LA Times, border infiltrators who stream into the US are "illegal immigrants", but the Eritreans who infiltrate illegaly into Israel are "refugees" and "asylum seekers" (see headline below and article - content © LA Times). And while the US deports thousands of "illegals" annualy without mention in the paper, the LA Times makes sure to refer to "critics" of Israel's deportation of Eritreans who consider it a matter of civil rights and call the policy "heartless". The hypocrites at the LA Times spare no effort in manufacturing anti-Israel propaganda. Over 25 years of non-stop character assassination of Israel and counting! Online and paper subscribers, please call 1-800-252-9141 and cancel your anti-Israel LA Times and let us know at jointheboycott@inbox.com - see Honor Roll. 7/17/13

LUSH the Darling Company of BDS Anti-Israel Extremists:

LUSH Cosmetics is the darling company of BDS anti-Israel extremists (see BDS tweet below). LUSH continues to spread virulent PLO propaganda through its website giving your hard earned wages to causes villifying Israel. They refuse to open stores in Israel and support Bustan Qaraaqa, supposedly an environmental "charity", which spreads anti-Israel propaganda about the "brutality" of "occupation". In others words money spent at LUSH stores goes to support the PLO agenda. JtB urges you not to shop at LUSH stores. For more details and info see JtB's special feature page on our growing FLUSH LUSH Protest. 7/1/13

Alicia Keys Makes a Standout Show of Support for Israel:

In an industry that has shown a distressing and cowardly acquiescence to pressure from anti-Israel extremists, the music world now has a standout courageous voice of support for Israel. One of today's top recording artists, Alicia Keys (see video below), who is scheduled to perform in Tel Aviv on July 4, has refused to bow to pressure to cancel from BDS extremists, whose bullying tactics border on intimidation. In addition, USA Today shockingly joined the bullying, publishing online, almost verbatim, the words of a BDS press release. Alicia Keys response to BDS was mercurial and sweet. "I look forward to performing in Israel" she said. Kudos. Among the betrayers who have capitulated to the extremists' pressure are Bon Jovi, Carlos Santana, and Annie Lennox, actors Dustin Hoffman and Meg Ryan, and singer Stevie Wonder cancelled a Friends of IDF support appearance in Los Angeles. JtB urges you not support any of the betraying artists. But Alicia, we are proud of you. Please tweet messages of support @aliciakeys and sign this petition supporting her. Kudos also to the many other artists who have rejected the extremists, among them Madonna, Sir Elton John, Justin Bieber, Pet Shop Boys, Alanis Morissette, etc. 6/20/13



Kerry Deluded - Impossible to make Peace with Terrorist PLO:

Obama envoy John Kerry is the latest preacher to lecture Israel on how time is running out for peace (video below at 23:52). Kerry's delusions also include that "the PA has commited itself to a policy of non-violence" (at 26:04), a claim that is palpably untrue as acts of PA sanctioned violence against Israel take place daily. It is to be hoped this is the last irksome US attempt to pressure Israel into making suicidal concessions to an avowed terrorist enemy, the PLO. Until the Arabs come to terms with Israel's presence in the Middle East, stop terrorism and inciting hatred, there will not be peace. Next time, please spare Israel the platitudes. 6/6/13



Increasingly Likely Iran Goes Nuclear with Obama in White House:

Seldom, if ever, can there have been a less suitable President in power during a major crisis than Obama during the Iran nuclear drive. Iran has thumbed its nose at ineffective sanctions responding defiantly by actually increasing its pace of uranium enrichment. Meanwhile Obama shows less and less resolve to stop Iran, and his friends at the anti-Israel LA Times are now floating the idea that Iran should be granted significant concessions! And his so-called Middle East "peace" initiative appears nothing more than the tired old keep pushing Israel for suicidal concessions. It is looking increasingly likely Iran will go nuclear with a weak Obama in the White House (video not from CNN website which is part of the boycott). 5/27/13

Turkey Owes Israel an Apology and Compensation:

When Turkish extremists bent on violence provocatively attempted to break Israel's UN-validated Gaza blockade Israel stopped them. The extremists attacked and injured a number of Israeli soldiers and 9 of the attackers were killed. But instead of apologizing to Israel, the Turks demanded Israel apologize to them. Israel rightly refused until Obama pressured Israel to apologize (without anything in return) and Netanyahu did so. Since then Israel has seen an increasingly hostile Turkish government do everything it can to make Israel regret doing so, including pursuing a number of court actions. Rightfully, it is Turkey that owes Israel an apology and compensation for Israel's injured soldiers. 4/14/13



Obama Has a Long way to Go to Reach the Israeli People:

In his speech to a selected group of students in Jerusalem, the President pleaded the PLO "occupation" cause to a politely clapping audience. He ignored ongoing and persistent PLO terrorism, incitement to violence, and refusal to recognize Israel. It was obvious this PLO centric speech was the reason for Obama's end run around the Knesset which has upset a number of Israelis. In addition, his exclusion of Ariel U students from the audience (no doubt because of their "settler" base), and his refusal to offer any hope for the release of Pollard, show he has a long way to go in winning the hearts and minds of Israelis. 3/22/13



LA Times Owes Israel an Apology:

On November 16, 2012, LA Times 'reporter' Edmund Sanders wrote "Omar Misharawi, was killed Wednesday in an Israeli attack". As reported below, the UN recenctly concluded it was likely a PLO rocket, not Israel, that killed the baby. Sanders is among a host of other so-called news reporters who wrongfully accused Israel and has failed to apologize. Sanders in fact did his best to put a PLO spin on the subject questioning the UN findings, implying they were wrong. The LA Times and Sanders owe Israel an apology - see also CAMERA analysis. Subscribers, please call 1-800-252-9141 and cancel your anti-Israel LA Times and let us know at jointheboycott@inbox.com - see Honor Roll. 3/20/13


UN Exonerates Israel, Anti-Israel Media Disimissive:

The UN has exonerated Israel of responsibility for the widely propagandized death of 11-month-old Omar Masharawi whose father was a BBC "reporter" in Gaza, concluding that the likely cause was a PLO rocket. But a viscerally anti-Israel media which normally loves the blatantly anti-Israel UN reports are dismissing and challenging the findings of this group of UN experts. The NY Times and LA Times used their reports to dispute the UN's findings. The Wahington Post dismissed the report as unimportant. The shoddy, arrogant BBC's reaction is insulting, preferring to believe the father of the victim ("rubbish") over the word of (normally anti-Israel) independent UN investigators. AP has been accused of applying retroactive corrections to its false report of the death. This is to be expected from a media so driven by anti-semitic bias against Israel that it is unable to muster the integrity to ever acknowledge its faults. There is only one response to the unethical anti-Israel media; boycott it. Stop buying, subscribing to, or even clicking on links to anti-Israel media. see Honor Roll 3/14/13


The Ugliness of a PLO Promoting 'Beauty Products' Company:

Click here to see a FLUSH LUSH protest outside LUSH Cosmetics in Beverly Hills, CA, which has since closed

LUSH Cosmetics, an international 'beauty products' company, continues to spread ugly anti-Israel propaganda through its website. LUSH gives your hard earned wages to the extremist One World Campaign which portrays Israel as an "illegal" occupier committing "crimes" against "Palestine", and grossly exaggerates the suffering in Gaza. LUSH also supports a so-called "charity" Bustan Qaraaqa which actively advocates against Israel and the "brutality of the military occupation, the Wall and the Settlements". This is an abuse of LUSH's privileged position on Main Street USA and JtB urges you not to shop there. Please join our growing FLUSH LUSH protest and write to customercare@lush.co.uk to protest their anti-Israel extremism and CC jointheboycott@inbox.com - see example and list of US and UK locations - (above) the LUSH store in Santa Monica, CA - photo © JtB 3/12/13


The Intensity of a Hater of the Jewish State:

When fanatic Israel hater UK MP George Galloway walked out of a debate at Oxford University with a student who has Israeli citizenship he was justifiably accused of racism (see video below). Over the years Galloway has expressed an intense hatred of Israel both in word and action. He has been an outspoken advocate for the most extreme PLO terrorists of Hamas. A hatred of the Jewish State as intense as Galloway's is clearly not a rational but an emotional choice coming from someone not immediately involved in the Arab-Israeli conflict. "Hashem maintains a war against Amalek from generation to generation" (Exodus 17:16). 2/23/13
