Boycott United States?
9:37 AM Edit This 3 Comments »
The terrible war between Israel and Palestine just seems to continue like this forever, it will not come to a halt, and United States, without a doubt is always live up to its role as the Great Wall of China for Israel. With such a huge back-up forces watching their back, it is almost certain that Israel could continue the war and do whatever they see fits.
In spite of the newly elected President-to-be Barack Obama seems to be a better reason to cheer from every corner of the world, but many, including me, still doubt that the President-elect is going to be successful in completely implementing US troops withdrawal from Iraq within almost a year of time as how he had promised before he was elected the successor of President George W. Bush. But well, although we know that it is highly possible that he could not do much about it, and things would just be the same as what is happening today. But at least he is a new face whom every one acknowledge.
The first new Black American. A black, to be frank, is basically a nation which was not supported by majority of the Whites many years ago, but Barack Obama, with his great charisma, won round of applause all over the world because he is a symbol of the word "change". He proved that a Black, being once a discriminated individual, can achieve the highest success in a country like America. Consequently, many countries which their liberty is being ripped off, particularly countries which practice liberalism, are all awakening from the snares.
Will he make a change in the days to come when he takes office on 20th January? That's a million dollar question which falls into ambiguity. But our beloved Chedet, is now urging our country to boycott US products openly, urging the rakyat not to use any of the US dollar so that we will not be contributing any penny to the United States in making weapons to kill people (as if United States is only using its money t create weapons =S), sacrificing innocent people's lives, as in what is happening with the Palestinians now. He pointed out that the United States is the only driving force of the war.
Yes, perhaps he is partially correct about it. But by criticizing with such comment publicly, will it strain the potential good relationship between Malaysia and the upcoming New America? Perhaps we should just put in some faith in the United States, and watch how America could really change in the near future before pointing fingers?

boycott US???? Our country better clean her own backyard first.... i would rather boycott the pork in MALAYSIA first , they r all tainted!!!
Yep... That's what our former PM mentioned. He told the nation to boycott US goods, as well as US dollar.
Regarding this issue, I'm on the PM side. Our PM recently put efforts in holding talks with the United States, on how to further imporve the situation.
But man... The pictures of individuals who lost their family members in the newspapers are certainly heart-aching..
The Malysian Muslim Consumer Association (MMCA) along with other Muslim non-governmental organizations are now urging people not to purchase any US or Jewish products, not to watch any Hollywood Movies, not to listening to any American musics and they're actually going to launch a boycott campaign tomorrow.
Our former PM is still an extremely influential figure to this day. But I reckon that the country and these people can't put our economic situations on bet as an indication to protest the war.
Can't they do something which is more useful than this?
