Israel Loves Mugabe- by Justin Raimondo

The US, the EU, the UN, leaders of neighboring countries – all have expressed varying levels of disapproval as Mugabe's international stock has plummeted to new lows.

Yet he has always managed to retain at least one ally, through thick and thin, one that remains loyal even now, and that is the government of Israel. They have been a steady supplier of military equipment, including riot control tanks and water cannon, which has been used to suppress the democratic opposition and keep the country under his iron grip.

Absolutely, for example my local supermarket sells packs of cut herbs grown in israel, which I refuse to buy - and not just for political reasons, it is environmentally dispicable to fly such products on a daily basis all the way from israel to the uk.
I'm sure there are people on this forum who remember avoiding buying south african avacados etc during the apartheid era.
