Boycotting American Products Spreading All Over Arab Countries
A
Call To Boycott U.S. Products
ABU DHABI, April 12 (IslamOnline) - The call for boycotting American products is spreading all over the Arab countries responding to American’s unfairly supporting the Israeli atrocities against Palestinians. It has been clearly noticed that great numbers of Arabs refuse to purchase any American product or to have anything to do with American restaurants. In the United Arab Emirates there is a serious call for boycotting American products, IslamOnline correspondent reported.
The boycott is the least thing one can do to support his fellow Palestinians, Mahmoud Al-Ali, an Emirati civil servant, told IslamOnline Correspondent. He added that all Arab countries must unanimously agree on taking this bold step, then Americans will know that they will get nothing but losses.
As for Baligh Hamed, an Emirati police officer, it goes this way, when one purchases an American product one indirectly helps Israel continue its outrageous aggression against Palestinians, you pay for Americans and with your money they buy weapons that go to their fellow Israelis.
While Mohammad Karam, an Emirati businessman, suggests that America's political power is dependant on its economy, the moment U.S. citizens feel their interest is at stake because Arabs no longer covet their products, they will be obliged to pressurize the government to change its policy.
Emirati citizens were not the only ones who have taken the initiative. Also their fellow Egyptians have given their share. This was clear when a student in the medical school got out of his car in the most crowd place in Cairo and distributed posters that say "To all Egyptians !! Help your Fellow Palestinians by boycotting American products". I was grief-stricken when I saw what's happening to Palestinians and we can't do anything to prevent such atrocities, so I thought of distributing these posters among my colleagues, my relatives, among Egyptians so to speak, Samir Metwalli added.
Tunisia, among other countries, denounced the American policy and called it "The Policy of Indifference and Injustice"
