Sjekk hva som skjer med Boykot- divestment og sanksjons-kampanjen (BDS) i Irland og ellers i "Vesten". Her er det mange som driver grundig arbeid med å avsløre ulike israelske varer som forsøkes skjult av importører. De israelske eksportørene og okkupasjons-profitørene skjelver i buksene sine og Skandinavia nevnes helt eksplisitt:

"A spokesperson for EDOM, a major Israeli fruit grower and exporter that has extensive operations in illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank, told The Marker:

- Importers from Europe are telling us that they can’t sell Israeli produce … One European buyer has told me that he had been blocked in several chains in Denmark and Sweden, and then in Belgium. Last weekend, he told me that mangoes which had been packaged in the Netherlands, as always, and shipped to Ireland, were returned, claiming that Israeli produce would not be accepted …

"I’ve heard of major exporters from whom chains in southern France are no longer buying. There is no official boycott, but everyone is afraid of selling Israeli fruits. We can only hope that things do not get worse."

Among the other exporters interviewed for the article is an Israeli pomegranate grower who is quoted as saying that they had been forced to cancel their “entire work plan in the UK” because major retail chains were no longer interested in Israeli goods, and that similar messages had been received from importers in Belgium and Scandinavia." (samme referanse)

BDS virker! Dette er kanskje det aller viktigste sporet nå!
