    Iran has banned “Zionist companies” in an amendment signed by President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Army Radio reported Wednesday. The blacklist is made up of “Jewish-owned” American companies like IBM, Intel and Coca-Cola.

    The boycott comes as a reaction to American and UN sanctions against Iran.

    The amendment was added to a new law passed in reaction to the Gaza flotilla entitled “The Palestinian Support Law,” in which Iran seeks to support Palestinians while isolating Israel, Army Radio reported. The Iranian Foreign Ministry is responsible for making sure the boycott is carried out.

    Ahmadinejad also announced that he plans to propose similar laws in international forums,
    such as the UN, the Arab League and the Muslim Forum.

    This comes a day after Israel’s ambassador to the US, Michael Oren, warned that Iran might respond to sanctions passed against it in the US last week with terrorist violence in the Middle East.

    Oren stated that it is basically a matter of seeing who can hold out longer and that the international community must persevere in enforcing the sanctions.

    He added that Teheran would respond to the sanctions by either returning to the negotiating table or by starting a war in the Middle East.

    Even if these companies were Jewish-owned, which they are not, I thought Ahmadenijad just hated the Zionists, not the Jews!?!

    Please someone send him a comprehensive list of all good into which Jews have a business and intellectual interest. He will find that the only thing allowed in his country will be… probably nothing at all actually; let’s sit back and start enjoying the civil unrest which will ensue. Exciting times ahead people!!!

    The Iranians are not innovative they do not produce anything, so we cannot return the favor, and make our own boycott.
