Shuld the world boycott Israeli products to protest Israeli terror attacks in Gaza?

The world is outraged at the cowardly terror attacks by Israel. I also oppose Hamas but can see that Israel is a far more efficient killer than Hamas. Over 80 children murdered in ten days. This is evil and immoral. Should we boycott Israel?

For years now, Hamas has terrorized Israel and lobbed rockets at will into their cities. What would you do ?

How about you boycott Hamas for launching rockets from day care centers then if you're so worried about children?

How about you boycott Hamas for not renouncing their calls of terror and destruction which would immediately end this violence?

How about you open your eyes and realize that Hamas is holding your people hostage?

What does Israel produce? So far as I've seen, weapons are their only notable export, and they couldn't even produce those themselves.

So I think the bigger question here is, should the US stop supplying military aid to Israel?

No, because the Israelis haven't committed terror attacks in Gaza. Pardon, but you have this backwards. Wasn't it Hamas who has been shooting off rockets into Israel, killing children, and isn't it Hamas using their own people as human shields? Now if Hamas didn't strike first, and hide behind their children, would their own children be dead? A little common sense goes a long way, or did you think the Israeli's should just lay down and be murdered? Would you?
Would you not protect your babies, and let someone who didn't like you kill them?

I wouldn't. I think I will go out and buy some products made by Israeli's now. Thanks for the advice on how to support them financially.

The middle east has always been a hot bed of fighting (since ancient times), so I would say boycotting products won't stop anything. As far as just boycotting products from Israel (if there is any significant imported products from Israel let me know), no. Hamas is the ultimate harasser in this equation. There will be no peace in Israel until the second coming of Christ according to Biblical prophesy, so..................
