I am back on Mouthshut to write my second review. My first review was a post-war analysis.  If you want, you can click on my ID and go to my profile page to read it.


The next question is-  Now what?


Friends, I would like to introduce you to an anti-war European forum.


https://consumers-against-war.de/caw.htm


Anti-war groups form this site and they request the boycott of American goods. If you feel that this war is unjustified, then you are requested to declare your protest by boycotting American products.


Also, check out this link.

If you will go to your local fast food and ice cream place instead of McDonalds or Barista, you will be making a statement.


If you eat local market ice creams and chocolates, soft drinks instead of American products, you will be making a statement.


If you use locally made soaps, shampoos, toiletries instead of American or British ones, you will be making a statement.


If you cannot do complete boycott, do it partially. At least do it to some extent.


Most of the foreign products are costly and hence boycotting these products will result in saving your money.


And come on guys, does it really matter whether you are using Colgate toothpaste or a local toothpaste?


Does it matter which soap you use? Then, why not buy a local product?


Why should you blindly fund war criminals?


If it’s a critical situation and there is no option, go and buy American products. But when you have other options, why not buy a non- Anglo-American product?


It’s a dirty circle. You pay to America by buying their products; they use the same money to kill your soldiers near the Kashmir border by keeping the gun on Pakistan’s shoulder.


Guys, there are people all over the world who feel this way and there are many websites on the net by such groups. If you visit the links provided in this review, you will know it.


Also check out this one-


https://boycottwar.net/index.htm


Let me clarify- this does not mean that if you have some American friends, boycott them!


This is a declaration from the above –mentioned site-


We have no quarrel with the American people only with the un-checked activities of their corporate and military institutions.


In fact, they also talk about supporting small, family-run american companies that are not involved with the war and government.


There is a big economic gap in America. The average American is facing lay-offs, economic challenges and a dysfunctional society. The rich are getting richer.


In fact, these sites are meant for uniting ethical people from all nations, including America. But, the big companies who are behind this war need to be boycotted.


This is a world wide movement. For us, There are 3 main reasons-


1) America's support to Pakistan


2) Iraq war


3) America's new dumping scandal


I understand the concept of globalization. When Americans and British stop their cruel actions and start behaving like civilized beings, I will happily buy American products.


But I do not want them to use my money to bomb small children.


Though the war is over, they are still controlling the oil wells. They have no plans to return the wells to Iraqi people. They have also started the ‘dumping’ of agro products that is going to kill the economies of developing nations as well as developed European nations.


Are you going to make a statement? If yes, please visit the links, and next time you go shopping, think before you pay. Make a conscious choice. Choose to fight in your small way. It will make you feel better.
