"We are clear ... ... that it would be wrong to support the illegal settlements by purchasing their goods. We therefore ask Friends throughout Britain Yearly Meeting to boycott settlement goods, until such time as the occupation is ended. |
This is not the first boycott which Quakers have supported.
Note doubts about this boycott.
See list of Israeli exports: settlement goods are marked with an asterisk.
See boycott statements from various Yearly Meetings.
Read an Israeli argument for boycotting only settlement goods.
See UK Government advice on settlement goods.
The European Council on Foreign Relations has issued a report urging the EU to avoid treating Israeli settlements in the West Bank as part of Israel.
Consider alternative forms of boycott?
