JOIN US AND TAKE ACTION!!
We know stores in your area are carrying Israeli products. We are here to support you to ask these stores not to carry Israeli products. If they will not deshelve Israeli products, and voluntarily cleanse their shelves of products that support occupation and apartheid, we are here to provide resources for you to create disencentives for stores to stock Israeli products. If you do so, you will be part of a growing international movement that has demanded that their local stores stop carrying products made in Israel, in campaigns that are raging from Ireland and Wales to France and beyond…

We are planning a kick-off action: Saturday, June 20th–World Refugee Day. We invite you to organize in your community and deshelve, sticker, boycott, and protest the presence of Israeli products until Israel complies with international law and human rights standards!
Please invite everyone you think might be interested to visit this page asap!

THE BOYCOTT DIVESTMENT SANCTIONS (BDS) CAMPAIGN:
In 2005, a broad coalition of Palestinian civil society organizations called upon people of conscience all over the world to impose boycotts, divestment and sanctions against Israel, similar to those applied to South Africa in the apartheid era. These non-violent principled measures should be maintained until Israel meets its obligation to recognize the Palestinian people’s inalienable right to self-determination and fully complies with the precepts of international law by:
1. Ending its occupation and colonization of all Arab lands and dismantling the Wall;
2. Recognizing the fundamental rights of the Arab-Palestinian citizens of Israel to full equality; and
3. Respecting, protecting and promoting the rights of Palestinian refugees to return to their homes and properties as stipulated in UN resolution 194.”
