How do you work that one out? The United Nations voted in favour of creating the state of Israel in 1948. Immediately all the Arabs declared war on the new state. Israel won, against all the odds. Since then, just about all its Arab neighbours have spent most of their time trying to wipe Israel off the map. All it has done is to defend itself. So how exactly does Israel "create wars"?

Israel is a functioning democracy. The mere fact that it has been involved in several wars is not an argument as to why someone should not do business with it.
In fact, any argument you try to bring as to why it should be boycotted can be applied to many other countries as well, yet proponents of such boycotts do not care about such things. They specifically single out Israel.
Oh well. Its not like they really matter anyways.

Manus manum lavat.
Those big companies all make tons of money off the warmongering created by religious wars in the middle east. Without Israel, the source of conflict would not be there and they would have to resort to creating real products that meet the needs of real customers instead of simply antagonizing historical enemies to create markets for their war materiel, consulting, and other nefarious goods.

"a country which creates wars"
OK, please name some of these wars that Israel created that it was not attacked or threatened first.
because after all to create a war one must instigate it right?
And how is a company supportive of a country by doing business?
Should a medical supply company boycott Turkey because of its policies against the Kurds?
You could find a reason to boycott almost every nation on the face of the Earth, from the United States to Monaco. Are you going to boycott all of them, or just the ones you do not like?

Hey, large companies are there to make money. Israel's political situation has nothing to do with them. We exist in a global market and you will find many big companies in places all around the world.
Don't feel sick about it. Many pension funds, possibly yours included, invest in these companies. You won't object if your pension is better than expected, would you?

It's the jews extending their greedy fingers elsewhere! They're insidious and devious! The boycott is one of the consumers most powerful tools. It can bring major corporations to their knees!
