.@benandjerrys misguided attempt to appease Israel’s detractors will do nothing to advance the cause of Israeli-Palestinian peace. More importantly, in no way will it serve to benefit Palestinians.

Ben Cohen & Jerry Greenfield opposed the first Gulf, opposed the Iraq war, oppose the Pentagon budget. As principled American Jews, they oppose what Israel is doing. If you oppose them, you're probably part of the problem. https://t.co/rGQ4MzpA2a

Ben and Jerry - Men of Ice Cream, Men of Principle - beautifully state their case. It's not anti-semitic to criticize Israeli policy or to not sell ice cream in illegal settlements. It's actually a truly pro-Israel decision. https://t.co/1xcOGOVLbG
