Denmark is fronting an EU initiative to help consumers boycott Israeli settlement products.
The move comes after EU foreign ministers in May said they will "fully and effectively implement existing EU legislation" on the subject.
The EU says settlements are illegal. But its regular complaints about settlement expansion fall on deaf ears.
An Israeli source said EU pressure on settlements is nothing new. He said settlement-bashing supports the Palestinian line that settlement-buildinginstead of Israeli securityis the main obstacle in the peace process.

I propose a “buy-cott”. In fact....here is a GREAT Israeli company I order from. Best stuff for psoriasis ever!
New tagline post.
Yep. Especially when it comes to our foreign aid (world welfare checks).Why not cut back on those for nations who are not friendly to us or our allies? Our government keeps rewarding their hate and sloth. Why in the world are we still doing it while AMERICANS are hurting for gosh sakes?
Appropriate.
The EU taking this stance is as ridiculous as Obama telling Israel to stop building new settlements!
It’s Israel’s land! They can build whatever they want!
The PA is NOT a country; just a bunch of nomadic Arabs populated by many terriorists.
That's a two-way street, and I certainly hope that Israeli products are not discriminated against by our trade laws. Can any Israelis point us to a comprehensive list of Israeli products exported to the U.S.?
Denmark can go to hell, and gorge on the excellent products exported by that pretend country, "palestine :" explosives, acid in the face, assasinations, arson, mass murder...
The EU has degenerated into races of morons and incompetents.
Brace yourself!
The next thing that we will hear from Barach Hussein Obama, the ignorant apprentice learning on the job president, is that California, New mexico, Texas and Arizona cannot build anything or have any activity within 100 miles of the border, becaue it might upset the Nation of Aztlan!
I'm surprised it hasn't already been considered, by the Traitor-in-Chief!
The WTO has ruled against the US for requiring foreign products to name the “country of origin”...wonder how they would rule on this?
If they rule against Israel...then all this Globalism is really just Anti-Semitism
