Boycotting may not harm Israeli economy, but it does harm friends of Israel, who fund, support and promote Israel, and whose support and pressure on other governments allows Israel to exist and continue the genocide.

Targeted boycott is when you pick 2 or 3 things to boycott, it’s more effective then broad boycott. For example, it’s ok if you go buy an Israeli computer because that is hard to avoid, but then you should avoid McDonalds and Starbucks because those are easy to avoid. Target the weak points and then the whole system will collapse

We should go a step further and support Muslim owned brands. Muslims should create bbrands which compete with the zionist ones so people have choices and options and then list these companies to support for example. Eidparty for decorations - a great company for parties. Jack Murat for coffee Australian Muslim brand but they deliver to the UK. Lets reply here to make a list of muslim owned brands that you want to promote so we can invest in them

What i understood from this brother is that boycotting on the grassroots level ie brands, as opposed to sanctions and divestment, will probably not be most impactful on the political level. That is, my boycotting McDonald's, Starbucks, PureGym etc may not stop the suffering of the Palestinians. However, we still do it because it is not as simple as making a direct impact; boycotting is just one prong. I think many of us have this misunderstanding about boycotting that it doesn't change the grand scheme of things hence pointless.

We had all this oil money invested in the west, places like major cities, London, newyork and Paris by golf states. It's time to invest in emerging economies in Africa, Turkey and other states around the world that are Muslims. Enough is done to prop up economies that are hostile to Muslims, it's time to change course, look after your own Muslims and create the conditions that will enable them to prosper.

I am your sister from Yemen, and by Allah I only spoke out of hunger and distress. My mother, my brothers, and I lessons and tears. We are in a situation that only God knows about. God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs for those who brought us to this situation. By Allah Almighty, I did not write this appeal out of distress and distress. Poverty, O world, they have felt it So, I hope for you. By Allah Almighty, Lord of the Great Throne, he ate what I had in the house. By Allah, my brothers, he is my brothers by sitting in the house. Who has no food? By God, we are in a very difficult situation. We have 4 people entering the house, and my father has died, and there is no one who can depend on us and who lives in it.We live in a rented house because we cannot pay the rent we owe. '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''' My brother, my first words are: I swear to God that I will not lie to you or deceive you. I am a Yemeni girl displaced from the war. My family and I live in a rented house in Al-Shahrab 20,000 Yemenis among us, and now we owe 60,000 for 3 months. The owner of the house is one of the people who does not have mercy, by God, my brother. He comes every day, insulting us, talking about us, and moving from the house to the street because we were unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and came back.They came back to talk to the neighbors and we were given the weekend. So we made him swear by God. He will take us out into the street. Have mercy on him and us. Our country is due to this war and we do not find food for our day, and my brothers and I live in a difficult life. Our father died, may God have mercy on him, and we have no one in this world who was with us in these harsh circumstances. My younger brothers went out into the street and saw...The neighbors eat and stand at their door in order to give them bread even if they break it. By God, to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, they closed the door and expelled them and came back crying. They are dying of hunger. No one has mercy on them and a holiday is returned. I have made a living, and now if one of us helps us with a kilo of flour, I swear to God, I am dying of hunger. My brother, I am an alien to God. Then, I ask you to help me for the sake of God. I ask you, by God, to love goodness and to help me, even if you can, by messaging me on WhatsApp.On this number 00967717354582 and ask for the name of my card and send it and do not be late and may God reward you with all the best, my brothers Sagar, see how they are and help us and save us before they throw us out in the street, you will be lost or we will die of hunger. My family and I ask you, by God, if you are able to help us, do not be late and may God reward you well..`/--~«««~-♡~♡~♡~~•~•~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡♡♡~~~: ~:~¡~¡~¡~;I.i.i.i.i.i. i.I.|-◖.،.،.،.،.،.،.،.،.،.،.،.،.،.،.😢😢😢😢🎉😢😢😢😢😢
