I have received loads of support on the boycott initiative...Some people question the location (which is an American franchise that does not support Israel-to the best of my knowledge), but I have to say, for the most part, people have been really encouraging. Btw. I only chose Bennigan's because it has an area for children...so that mothers could be included...that's it.
Anywho,

Some people would like to go a few steps further and boycott American establishments as well because of America's endless support of Israel, which is fine too.

Everyone is free to do what they want with their own money and anyone who says otherwise is ridiculous.

I totally agree with you Amoud, if people are expressing themselves against what they feel is injustice...whose business is that? Why deter them?

I totally 100% agree in giving Aid. Charity and boycott can go hand-in-hand, one does not deter the other.
