Palestinians boycott US and UK products

Al-Khalil, April 7, IRNA -- Palestinians have stepped up their boycott
of American and British products in protest against the Anglo-American
invasion and occupation of Iraq.
Calls for stepping up the boycott have increased throughout the
West Bank and Gaza in the past two weeks, particularly since the onset
of the American-led aggression on Iraq.
As a result, some retail dealers have reported a sharp drop in the
sale of American products including soft drinks and detergents.
Last week, several Palestinians set their American-made cars on
fire to protest the Anglo-American invasion of Iraq.
The gruesome TV images of Iraqi civilians killed and maimed by
American and British bombing have dramatically increased anti-American
feelings among Palestinians.
