That’s OK, the U.S. can cover that for them. No worries, Bibi.
Someone remind me what the U.S. gets out of the BILLIONS we spend on them every year? What do we get? Genocide of vulnerable people? Preservation of some conservative fairy tale about “end-times”? Access to oil being sold by completely different countries who already sell it to us directly? What exactly?
Stop supporting them, for fucks sake. We can use that money on important things instead.

Well, Israel gets to kill US citizens, sell US technology to China, betray US intelligence agents, and cause incredible damage to the US’s reputation internationally.
I don’t see a downside! /s
The US gets an unsinkable aircraft carrier in the Middle East they can use as a hub for launching terrorists attacks
Fucking embargo these monsters. See how that effects their economy.
Oh no, not the rich people’s yacht money!
Just wait till the sanctions start.
NICE!

And whenever you see Dates that have origin country “israel” in the supermarket, take a box and put it back on a different shelf.
Making the minimum wage worker who stocks shelves have to put back the boxes you misplace isn’t going to win the war.
The idea is that once it’s moved by customers to a different section, the store will treat the product as bad and toss it out. Yes you’re right more work for the minimum wage guy who has to throw it out now, but the idea is that enough loss on that specific product and the manager may stop ordering that/those brands all together. They might not realize the products are related to Israel, just that the other brands are still selling, so by happenstance, the Israeli dates look inferior due to perceived customer purchasing habits. Eventually they may not be ordered anymore and that affects the parent company in Israel.
It’s a really long game, but that’s what I gather the goal of that specific protest would be.
That’s not how it works anywhere I’ve heard of (and I’ve lived in the USA and Europe and worked in an American grocery store). Maybe if it’s a refrigerated product in the US (or vandalized somehow), but that’s not the case with dates.
