[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't - Sodastream is an Israeli company made by Palestinians in the illegally occupied West Bank. I wouldn't touch Sodastream with a ten foot pole because of this. [/quote]
2nd, or any other company like it.[/quote]

That's right close down Sodastrem, let those Palestenians find employment somewhere else![/quote]

HAHA +1!

"any other company like it" - like who?  Any human rights violators?  you only buy Union-made (made in America) clothing? Only local produce from farmers you know don't hire migrant labor and provide a good wage for?  You don't shop at walmart or target? You make all of your cleaning supplies (since large companies are huge poluters)? You don't put gas in a car (oil overwhelmingly coming from countries with awful human rights records)? Don't drink any vodka?

I know some super nutty leftists (I'm leftist, so...) and even they don't have the energy/time to do the research on all that they consume, so choose to focus on their own backyard.

You pay taxes?  Where do you think your taxes go?

Ridiculous.  It's just because you don't like Israel (which for many translates into Jews...not all, but many).  It's so stupid.

This article displays both sides pretty well:

Hmmm, you haven't really disputed the facts or made a good case for buying Sodastream over another manufacturer.  What does it have to do with cleaning supplies or oil or vodka?  I don't have time research to these things so I shouldn't do anything at all?[/quote]
