    Evenif oil is their only export which they make money off of, keep in mind that every single thing you buy requires some of that oil to get to you. Even if you use a local farmer to buy your food you are still using oil to get to and from his farm, and paying him money which he will likely use a portion of for oil... it is never ending... there is no way to not support terrorism.

So thats anything from Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nigeria, Egypt, Turkey, Iran, Sudan, Algeria, Afghanistan, Morocco, Iraq, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, Uzbekistan, Yemen, Syria, Kazakhstan, Niger, Burkina Faso, Mali, Senegal, Tunisia, Guinea, Somalia, Azerbaijan, Tajikistan, Sierra Leone, Libya, Jordan, United Arab Emirates, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Chad, Eritrea, Lebanon, Albania, Kuwait, Mauritania, Oman, Kosovo, The Gambia, Bahrain, Comoros, Qatar, Djibouti, Brunei, Maldives.. oh yeah and Gaza.. :rolleyes: lol..

    dilipsam, your response here of "boycotting muslim products" is pretty stupid. People are boycotting ISRAELI products, not "jewish" products. People are boycotting Israel because of the international laws they have broken (such as targeting schools, universities, hospitals, etc) and because the majority of the dead in palestine (600+) are women and children civilians. A more valid repose from you would be to boycott hamas products or palestinian products.

    There are many other muslim countires in the world such as indonesia, Dubai (UAE), etc. What do these countires have to do with the war,:confused:

    I don't think you can call a country Muslim due to the population if the government is non-religious in nature. I would call Iran a Muslim nation since it is a theocracy based on Islam. It is the same reason I disagree with people who claim the US is a Christian nation. Just my opinion.

    We're the world's third largest exporter. We'd be the second if China wasn't full of cheap labor.

    Iggy, the internet was invented by the US, by the US DOD even, so you should boycott the internet in protest. :D

    Economically speaking, we are generating more revenue than we spend on buying the oil. Just look at all the items we manufacture using that oil and sell it back in the ME.

    Peace,

    Well, instead of boycotting something from certain countries due to race/religion/political issues, why don't we just try to avoid consuming as many imported products as we can. It helps a lot to the local products (most notably small home business) especially with this kind of economy crisis. Just a thought :)

    The funny thing is I already avoid most of the companies mentioned earlier because their food and products are just unhealthy and over processed for me. I drink water and like to eat what the farmers market is selling. I couldn't imagine what I would boycott for political reasons because politicians don't produce anything much worth consuming.

    So the news that Lebanon fired few rockets in Israel has persuaded you to think that all Muslims are wrong etc. Fair Enough! Ofcourse, it does not matter whatever Israel does in Palestine, they just killed 800 and injured more than 3000. The killed include more than 70% civilians, and another insignificant event occured lately........Israel bombed a school that was holding innocent refugees, so what? Muslims deserve this, those palestinians children deserve to be killed bcoz they will grow to be terrorists, right? But no Israeli should even get minor injuries because they are a superior species.Only an animal can support what israel is doing right now!
