British Trade Sanctions Against Israel

by | 3rd, June 2007

WE do business with China, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, Iraq, Belarus, Iran, Venezuela, Burma and many, many more. But when it comes to a democratic ally:

UNISON representatives who are in contact with the Histadrut labor federation have in recent days presented the Histadrut’s international activities director, Avital Shapira, with a copy of the proposal.

According to the proposal, UNISON, which has some 1.4 million members, will urge other British unions to follow its lead and cut off all economic and cultural ties with Israel.

Histadrut sources said the impression they have received is that UNISON will vote in favor of the boycott.

Why?
