Boycott Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream as They Brand themselves to be an “Anti-Israel Ice Cream”

The popular ice cream brand, Ben & Jerry’s, has announced that it will no longer sell its products in Judea and Samaria (Israel). The reason? “We believe it is inconsistent with our values for Ben & Jerry’s ice cream to be sold in the Occupied Palestinian Territory.” Click here to read their statement on the Ben & Jerry's website. This is part of the BDS movement (Boycott, Divest & Sanctions). Why does ice cream have to become political? In response, Australia's main kosher certification agency announced last week that they will be delisting Ben & Jerry's ice cream from its list of approved products.

In case this article has enticed your stomach to reach for this brand of ice cream, we ask instead that you join us by boycotting Ben & Jerry's until they lift their sanctions. I do believe that when supporters of Israel stop purchasing Ben & Jerry's it will make a huge difference in their bottom line. They should reconsider going against the the Scripture found in Genesis 12:3: "I [God] will bless those who bless you [Israel], and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed."
