A new memo by U.S. Customs and Border Protection takes a decades-old directive and reinterprets it in a way that forces businesses to label Israeli-made goods that have been produced in the West Bank.“Goods produced in the West Bank or Gaza Strip shall be marked as originating from ‘West Bank,’ ‘Gaza,’ ‘Gaza Strip,’ ‘West Bank/Gaza,’ ‘West Bank/Gaza Strip,’ ‘West Bank and Gaza,’ or ‘West Bank and Gaza Strip,'” the Jan. 23 memo reads. “It is not acceptable to mark the aforementioned goods with the words ‘Israel,” ‘Made in Israel,’ ‘Occupied Territories-Israel,’ or any variation thereof.”
“Goods that are erroneously marked as products of Israel will be subject to an enforcement action carried out by U.S. Customs and Border Protection,” the memo states. “Goods entering the United States must conform to the U.S. marking statute and regulations promulgated thereunder,” the memo continues.

The West Bank is in Israel. Gaza is it's own territory though, but Israel really should take that back, it's become a terrorist nation refuge of Hamas. This is an attempt to try to legitimize the Islamic terrorists.

Guess Obama don't know geography or politics too well. No president, not even terrible Bush failed Middle East policy this badly. Ugh, just gotta put up with Obama I guess until we can get one like Trump to end this secularist weebo nonsense and stand with our only trustworthy ally in the Middle East at this current time.

Sure, Trump will fix it.... by letting convicts buy guns (he doesn't want background checks)

but, getting back to the topic: I don't think it will be possible to make an overall ban on Israeli goods.
Unless he intends people to stop using a LOT of tech gadgets....

Incredibly, despite of so many people attacking Israel nowdays, import from Israel has increased in Norway :)

I think the original root meaning of the name "Obama" must mean "son of perdition" :rolleyes:

The scariest part of Obama is that this nation fell for him twice...time to reap a little sowing :(

I can't help but chuckle how European media can spin US news. Trumps official stance on background checks is that the existing system needs to be fixed (not expanded) since most persons with serious mental health issues are not entered into the system and likewise a given number of criminal convictions aren't entered either.

Don't worry, the name is misleading. Hebrew national is a US company (owned by ConAgra).

Lol at this point Carson is almost a joke and there's so many, lol but in the real if you're still supporting Carson at this point then you're gonna be very surprised very soon. Also I said one like Trump. Reason I included Trump is pretty simple, he's winning, he's likely going to be the winner. Deal with that on your own terms.

I personally would prefer my good servant Kasich of course, whom unlike Carson is highly competent and experienced and has a stellar record though the media ignores him and casts him to the side and puts him down and for what? I mean it's craziness, dude is the best qualified to be president. It's whatever I suppose US politics is the longest running reality TV show currently lol.

Trump though, I think Trump will stand with Israel. This OP story is a subtle show of the recurring theme of Obama worsening relations with Israel. Hoping to outlast Obama and leave something of a relationship with Israel. Our allies don't trust us, they will with Trump though. Trump won't play this whole charade.

I get the sentiment of cooler heads like Bush and Kasich, but at same time the kinda passiveness has led to the problem. Israel is a nation, and Palestine has never been a nation. America should stand strong on this, America has been the biggest to stand strong on it until Obama, and that's the worst part of his presidency easily. This needs to stop and it will, but the American People better pick a President this go around that is strong for USA's allies, but keeps US independent.

Kasich does but he wants to ally with the Islamic nations too much to beat IS. Jeb though is the curiosity. Big open secret with Bush is his family is long connected and friends with the royal family of Saudi Arabia. Though this could work to our benefit too as a peace broker for Israel. Trump sees them as they are but Mid East hate him quite publicly.
We need less blame on USA though, they blame us and our weebo leftists help them so much and in exchange what do we get? We get bombed? Their own people start killing eachother? It's madness, president has to be someone that just is not gonna play their game of madness the way they like to play it, it's that simple, we will make America great again, at least one last time before the end.

Either way hope pplz in Israel be kept more safe and comforted this year, jew or not. Just as America can't be a puppet to Israel so too Israel is no puppet of America, we can only try to support Israel can't do everything for them but hope God will continue to help endure in love the nations of his peoples and thank Jesus love will prevail and still endures.

Hence, the N.Y. Times love affair with Kasich.
I haven't really noticed any major media outlet really giving Kasich time of day. Just a lil shout out here and there, but I look in all the debates they just kinda shunt him to the side. Not cool, but it does kinda show Kasich's weakness as far as being a political candidate goes he's just not a showguy, it does seem superficial, but that's a real legit factor in US politics. He's kinda the America's grandpa figure. He's not a showy guy, but he's most experienced, the best qualified, and I believe that Kasich is a good hearted guy for our people. So I think that's the motivation behind his NATO-Arab coalition building idea as he recognizes indeed Islamic State is the biggest immediate problem. Kinda ironic Kasich has such a conservative foreign policy record and is such a right-wing hawk in the spectrum of foreign policy, whist is very prosperous and peaceful and merciful in domestic record.


I would not want anything to do with the war frankly, I think this generation of Americans has had enough of war for a while. I do not trust the Islamic nations though forgive me and them, but they have as regimes and various factions, backstabbed us and even each other all the time and in more frequency and intensity this century. Therefore these ideas of coalitions with them, I do not trust. In a weird sorta way even arab countries don't like the coalition ideas because they all have long feuds with each other and so it fuels their suspicions and paranoias of any outside, especially Western, attempt to unify or peacemake in the Middle East. One of the big messes of the modern time for sure.

That's really interesting news right there wow, good look sir Croosnote! Did not hear about this. That's what I'm meaning by I feel Kasich gets ignored, that a very big endorsement! Lol I don't got any subscriptions, I just surf around, New York Times is okay. Lol them endorsing my servant or not doesn't make me hate or like them. I generally like most the news media actually despite their varying political allegiances. Always just kinda been a fan of journalism.

Which led me to look up what his complete name means.
Blessed, handsome one, high place. Though it also said his last name could mean lightning so I don't know which is correct...

I heard France was threatening to recognize Palestine as a state if Israel does not try to break the deadlock in a 2 state solution peace deal. France to recognize Palestinian state if deadlock with Israel remains | News | DW.COM | 30.01.2016

Now how that will effect the price of Hebrew national hotdogs yet remains to be seen. :)
Has anyone tasted a Hebrew National Hot dog? Apart from being Kosher is there any difference in taste and quality and do they come with bread rolls or Bagels? just wondering

Because they're Kosher they're a lot more healthy and IMO they do taste better. Kosher requirements bar the use of a lot of the additives, preservatives, and non-meat fillers that are common in US manufactured hot dogs.
