By Micah Halpern
Monday August 31, 2015 I've Been Thinking: The largest supermarket chain in Luxembourg has just joined the boycott against Israeli products. The chain has said that until it can be proven that a product is not produced in the West Bank, the product from Israel will not be sold in their markets. The Cactus Supermarket chain said that it was easier to do business in this way than to suffer the inconvenience of protesters and their impact on the shoppers. Cactus management said that they use very few Israeli products anyway. They also followed up by saying that they would continue to sell Israeli produced Soda-Stream and other equipment that compose a larger percentage of their sales. Luxembourg is a tiny country of about 500,000 people with a GDP (gross domestic product) of about $53 billion. The size of the country and the size of the supermarket chain do not matter. This boycott must be stopped not because it will hurt Israel, but because it is the principle that counts. Boycotts are anti- democratic and anti-freedom. Read my latest book THUGS. It's easy.
