I am all for a protest in support of Palestinians but really...does anyone listen....you have to disrupt where the money comes from for Israel and something could be learned from the following story if it would happen on a worldwide level.A action that needs to happen all over the world. Dozens of Lebanese protestors angry at Israel's onslaught of the Gaza Strip forced the closure Tuesday of a Starbucks coffee shop in Beirut, calling for a boycott of the U.S.-based chain.
"We want to revive the boycott campaign in Lebanon and the Arab countries," demonstration organizer Yara Harakeh, 23, told AFP, adding: "We have begun with Starbucks."
Demonstrators wearing the iconic black and white Palestinian keffiyeh scarf stood outside the Starbucks in Beirut's Hamra shopping district, yelling out: "Boycott the Zionists for the Arab Palestine."
Staff inside the coffee shop refused comment, and eventually switched off the lights, locked the doors and left.
AlArabiya.net recently reported that top American companies are donating their profits to Israel to support its blitz of Gaza.
The report called on consumers to boycott several major U.S.-based companies like McDonalds, Starbucks, Pizza Hut and cigarette maker Phillip Morris.
Israel's deadly assault on Gaza has sparked protests across the world as hundreds of thousands decried the war that has left at least over 952 Palestinians dead and at least 3,000 woundedand they are still counting.
