  • More Info at:
The Body Shop, a personal care products retail chain, gave a quarter of its $300,000 "Human Rights Award 2002" prize money (i.e. $75,000) to a group called The National Committee for the Defence of the Rights of the Internally Displaced (NCDRID), which advocates, among other things, the "right to return" of all "Palestinian refugees" to Israel.

NCDRID was nominated for its award by BADIL, an organization that, among other things, helps promote PLO terrorism (the "Intifada") against Israel.

When you buy from The Body Shop you are helping to promote the PLO and its goals.

CONSEQUENTLY:

We, the undersigned, disapprove of The Body Shop's award to The National Committee for the Defence of the Rights of the Internally Displaced which advocates a "right to return" for all "Palestinian refugees". We consider this group's goals to be synonymous with the PLO attempt to destroy Israel.

We are upset that The Body Shop has used a part of our purchases to reward this group.

We therefore commit that we will not purchase any more products at The Body Shop until The Body Shop

1. Withdraws this award, and disavows a Palestinian "right to return" and the PLO and its goals;

2. Apologizes to the many millions of supporters of Israel worldwide that it has offended;

3. Makes a substantial gift to Israeli victims of PLO terrorism.

    • What a fraudulent waste of money. Since 1950 the US alone has given the Arab Palestinians $6.08 BILLION. Where are the new roads, hospitals,schools? Most went for weapons to attack Israel.

    • Israel needs support not hatred. They're a tiny country surrounded on all sides by dissidents. Have you seen the map of the Middle East? Take a good look at it and see how tiny Israel is and how huge all its enemies are.

    • Body Shop cannot expect their actions regarding the volatile Middle East, whether misguided or malicious, not to impact on their business.

    • I will not ever again buy--nor allow any friend or family member to buy without my pressuring them NOT to--ANY product from any "Body Shop" until this support of terrorist Judeophobes ceases PERMANENTLY. It's just disgusting PC ass-kissing to continue your support for these haters and murderers.

    • The "poor palestinazis" seem to be the only group of "displaced" who seem to have a "right" to go back to "where they came from" (considering the fact that most of them left of their own free will - being promised by their leaders that they will have "all that belongs to the Jews" -- and most of them are already dead; what we are speaking of now are their grandchildren; children, grandchildren and forward generations do not have any rights when discussing other groups, such as refugees in Europe following WWII, and even current wars), Other groups have no such "rights", and never had. The palestinazis have never agreed to share the land with the Israelis, they still don't and their target is the elimination of the State of Israel and its citizens. They are followers of the Nazis, goal, means and all. We despise the people who support them! And you are one
