- The local government in the Swedish city of Gothenburg is hoping to pass a law banning the purchase of Israeli goods.
It plans to put Israel on a list alongside Russia and Morocco, saying that taxpayers shouldn’t fund occupying powers.
Al Jazeera’s Paul Rhys reports from Gothenburg.

Sweden thank you standing up for humanity
No insult intended, but sorry, they fooled you. No boycott of US goods, who are absolutely the worse. For instance, _they_ are the root cause of what is happening.
Technically, the city of Gothenburg. For a nationwide band, Sweden’s Parliament would have to get involved. And if it’s succeeded, they would have to be sure that this is not a law that could be struck down by zionist supporters in the European Union.
Oh, BTW, RU did _not_ start the mess in UA. That was the US way back in Mar 2 0 1 4! So, again, no boycott of US goods is just nonsense. _Etc..._ if you learn about other things, such as Yemen!
@@antmagor What is the point of your post? Meaning, that is not relevant to this video and my post. My post/s stand as fact.
Hamas does not stand for humanity neither does radical Islam.
Good on you Sweden for identifying Israel as an Occupier. Hopefully you add the usa to that list as well.
You don't know anything about history.
Islamis invade Israel 10 years after islam was created.
Israel, the west Bank, gaza, and Jordan are all Israeli territory before islam invaded.
Yes true 💯💯
Canada as well
Am Israel chai🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
Then they should add Chile for doing apartheid on the Mapuche.
Thanks God finally 🙏 people know about the real face of American occupation in Middle East is Israel. Although it started in 1948.
This narrative of blaming the US for the occupation of Palestine deflects from the Israelis actually responsible for the occupation.
It seems hard to believe that few Americans know of the evil "that is Israel." How did the Zionists steal the land that is now called Israel? After WWII, you would think that discrimination would have a bad name because of the Holocaust, but the US and UK started a new one, the Palestinian Holocaust.
Exactly true 💯💯
Yes, All Mankind Supports !! Israel Zionist Knows very Well, Saudi UAE Qatar Don’t need To Obey Israel !! Don’t Underestimate ALLAH/GOD ALL POWERFUL - Eternal Life Ahead!!
It started in the late 1700's when the UK CHRISTION Evangelical ZIONISTS started the Push & Shove of Russian Pogrom Jews 2 Palestine. The UK were experts at Colonialism (India Ireland.....) & taught the Jews how 2 rule with no mercy.
Bravo Sweden ❤
Sweden is lost!
Sweden will be 30% Muslim by 2050!! Mashallah!!

This is the Sweden that South Africa remembers as a friend when we needed voices of support against our past regime 🇸🇪🇿🇦🇵🇸
Hahaha. How are things working out in south Africa now? You should have kept the regime. Zimbabwe is thriving too. Lol
@@scottmiller8617kept Apartheid??? Are you normal ?you know very well Zimbabwe collapsed because of the sanctions..You are 😈…
Salute to everyone who's supporting poor, innocent.and victim Palestanians
Me and family here in Ireland boycott Starbucks, McDonalds, Cocoa cola etc. doing what little we can to help the Palestinian people. Free Palestine 🇵🇸 love from Ireland 🇮🇪💚🇵🇸✌️
"innocent"? Don't be ridiculous. Bad is just that, no matter what side does it, and both sides have been bad, very bad.
@@Candyfloss119 thank you very much for your individual efforts in bringing about this change and also speaking up.
@@blingbling2841 🥰🇮🇪💚🇵🇸✌️
Free Free Iran from the evil of radical Islamist evil
The same way the generations of yester year boycotted SA apartheid goods.
and some of the last Countries to finally admit S. Africa was an APARTHEID regime were both The U.S. and The UK
And the one we can't name too!@@jjboys215
@@jjboys215 And now RSA is a Mudhole.
Hahaha. Most muslim countries are apartheid states regarding women. You idiots don't even understand the meaning of the words you use, or else you are blind to your hypocrisy
Sweden one of few countries where you still cannot buy politicians with money.
Unless it’s the prosecutor for the Assange case.
😂
@@Tommii38 Prosecutors aren't politicians 👍
@@Tommii38 The rape case against Assange collapsed because it had no evidence.
Their politicians have no brains if this is the kind of idiocy they support. I would LOVE to see how Sweden would react if their neighbor committed the same atrocities as hamas and the plo. I am sure they would just want to send flowers and talk things through.
Thank you Sweden for standing with humanity!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Well, some people in Sweden do. Not so much its national government.
@@RebeccaTurner-ny1xx thank God. some have brain
@@babajaga158people who are not supporting palestine have brain worms
There has never been a Palestine. You are on the wrong side of history.
@@babajaga158 brain or brain worm 🪱
It is a good move for Sweden, other countries should follow suit.

@@ninelspassionforfashion9289
Sorry about that 😢
@user-er4jm1ln8c
I'm sure glad that the West has adopted the Palestinians into their countries.
First Turkey, now Sweden, the list is increasing. The change is happening.
We also have South Africa, Egypt, Ireland, Malaysia, and many others also close behind, they are strongly speaking up and demanding justice and legal proceedings.
The solidarity in the UNGA is massive. I believe we can get a lot of things done with this momentum, and we are getting it done!!
It's not the people of those countries it's the government only people in Ireland for example are sick and tired of Muslim and black asylum seekers.most people know Hamas is a death cult@@blingbling2841
Good move from Sweden
Truth prevails slowly but steadly
Gothenburg is not owned and operated from Tel Aviv (like washington, London, Berlin...). WOW!
Supporting justice and truth will never be wrong. Free Palestine ✊🏾 🇵🇸
FREE Palestine from the Meccan and Medinan neo-Ba'al Voodoo Moon God, His Pedo-Prophet and Paper-and-Ink IDOLS.
Free Palestine is an oxymoron. Any Palestinian state will just be another impoverished and oppressive Islamic regime, totally dependent on foreign aid. There won't be much freedom for average Palestinians.
Never forget Folke Bernadotte
I am so proud of Gothenburg! The city in my heart!
Give peace a chance
And the US? It's occupying Iraq and part of Syria...
Leve leve leve Palistina.
Yeah the Meccan and Medinan Saudi neo-Ba'al Voodoo Moon God, His Pedo-Prophet and Paper-and-Ink IDOLS leave Palestina, MENA, South and Central Asia.
SO MUCH RESPECT FOR SWEDEN FOR STANDING UP FOR HUMANITY
Thank u...... thank u to the people and the govt of Sweden......❤❤❤
Look! It's Tarzan, the Monkey-Man and his Voodoo incantation: ALLAHU AKBAR ASHHADU AN LA ILAHA ILLA ALLAH ASHADU ANNA MUHAMMADAN RASOOL ALLAH HAYYA ALA S SALAH HAYYA ALA L FALAH HAYYA ALA-L-FALAH ALLAHU AKBAR LA ILAHA ILLA ALLAH!!!!!!”
*Qur'an 7:166* “They persisted in violation, We said to them, “Become APES!’”
*Qur'an 5:60* "Those whom Allah has cursed He made them APES, PIGS,"
Peace for all ❤
Nice display of a spineless right-wing politician, Axel Johansson. "Sympathy with the Palestinians, but we cannot do anything."
I like how he reframed the complete collapse of a country by genocide, on top of decades of apartheid, as "a difficult situation at this moment". He could make a career as a cynical comedian.
Always on the wrong side of history. The right wing in Sweden has almost zero points in the history books.
Boycotting is doing something and proven to work for SA.
@mistertamura6190 Came here to say that. He said "difficult". Not dire, not tragic, not catastrophic. He said "difficult". Tool.
Beware of any party (or person) called moderate. It usually means right wing.
Every humanitarian country needs to follow suit.

Tq Sweden ❤
Go to Gaza City and spend some time with Christian Brothers and Sisters in Christ, if you want to understand what it means to be threatened. Why were two unarmed Christian women shot by Israeli snipers while going to the toilet at their church in Gaza? Why were Christians killed while they were taking shelter at their 800-year-old church in Gaza City, when an IDF bomb hit beside their church? How many of their homes have been turned to rubble? How would you feel if armed drones were constantly flying overhead, while you are without food? Why was Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu-Akieh shot by the IDF before October 7th? These people were not killed by Hamas. Why have these people been ignored by most Christians in the U.S.? Are the Christians being killed in Gaza “Semites”?....
Thank you Sweden for standing with humanity !
Great people and it's wonderful that they're taking the boycotts seriously. Meanwhile, it's illegal to boycott Israel in any form in about 35 US states...or to quote Voltaire: If you want to know who rules over you, just look for who you are not allowed to criticize.
Salute sweden❤
Thx for your support innocent people send me your w. App my dear
Will that occupying law affect America and its genocidal government who already committed crimes against humanity on the lands it occupies?
These are the real politicians who are not afraid to stand up and be counted for their principles. May others follow suit.
Heartiest love and respect for standing with humanity
This is beautiful, the 🌎 must know what Israel is doing.
The world has been made aware for years. The late John Pilger has news documentaries regarding the cruelties inflicted upon the 🇵🇸 people by 🇮🇱
And the world looked the other way. 😞
@Dylanesque yes but now there is international exposure and even our kids are standing up for 🇵🇸. Change is definitely coming!
I was with the one from Saturday in Stockholm. With my Mother and sister. It was HUUUUUUUUGE. 🇸🇪
How do you spell parasite --------------I S R A E L
Heja Sverige 🇵🇸🇸🇪
Respect to Sweden for listening to their people and showing their whole government is corrupt
Even if they don't procure much, it is an example to set for other places in Sweden
- & gives a message to their national level over how the people feel & what that national level should do
- (including ALSO banning goods at the national level from Israel & taking other actions.)
Gothenburg - could also be used as an example for other municipalities AROUND THE WORLD - of what to do.
Altogether, it would be another bit of a sign to Israel of their unpopularity with other countries & if enough countries do this - & end joint partnerships of various kinds etc. with Israel - all these things could help.
Israelis are NOT going to want to be stuck in their own society
- if countries cut off allowing Israeli tourists
- if countries won't trade with them
- if Israeli students can't go to foreign universities
- if countries won't get involved or won't continue partnerships with them on a scientific level
etc.
Thank you, Sweden 🇸🇪 ❤
Stop Genocide in Gaza
How come they have suddenly grown a pair
Gothenburg is arguably the most left city in the country, we’ve never been the problem it’s the national parliament and their increasing number of fascists
We proud of you 🇿🇦 👌🏽 thank you for your support.. Shout out from SA
Looks like Sweden has a bit of a backbone compared to UK!!
God bless sweden for standing against injustice.
Took some time but I'm proud of my country 🇸🇪❤️ The gvmt probably'll never agree but it's important opposition leaving"silence"behind!!!🇵🇸🕊️🇮🇹
Welldone Sweden standing up for justice from South Africa
7months into the aggression and here in Bangladesh we can't mass boycott coca cola. May Allah give the businessman who decides to stop financing this products give something better. May Allah give all of us ilms 🤲
They remember Folke Bernadotte, Swedish diplomat and first ambassador to Palestine.
Thank you Sweden . More countries should follow suit & ban warcriminal. ❤️🇸🇪🇵🇸🙏👏✊️
The normal people here in the US do not want to feed the war machine either.
The US, the Uk and France are also an occupying power
We are all God's children. None deserve to be starved !!!!
"As a city we can not get involved with foreign politics." Axel Johansson
As a city you cannot avoid being involved in foreign politics. You are not a self sufficient entity. The world is connected, and buying stuff gets you involved. Waht you can do is make choices, and it seems the city is about to make one for the better.
Just curious. Will this law include China, France & US? China currently occupies Tibet; France occupies New Caledonia & US occupies Puerto Rico, Hawaii.
🇵🇸
Bravo Sweden!
At least this is a moral attitude
This. We want our money to go to improvement and betterment, not destruction and death.
Batman's - Gothenburg City
Excellent
Long live Palestine for ever from Australia ❤
1:30 I don't think I've ever seen somebody whose entire göteborgska accent carried over into English like this guy.
Don’t forget to boycott Turkey for occupying Northern Cyprus!
You gotta boycott the USA if you're being honest.
Thanks for the youth of today hope you can stop the wars
❤❤❤
Thank you sewden for your support for palistian we don't have words to thank you.
Stay blessed ❤
My Gods blessings be on those who bless Israel
Spain, Norway, Ireland. Is Sweden coming over?
What a humane & consistent bill
Great! ❤
Wow, this is pretty huge!
Freedom of Speech ends where the truth about israel begins.
"Every time anyone says that Israel is our only friend in the Middle East, I can't help but think that before Israel, we had no enemies in the Middle East." - Father John Sheehan
"Today, nearly everything is made in China, except for courage. Courage is made in Palestine." - Anthony Bourdain
Wonder if those people who were celebrating the events of October 7th are celebrating now?
Thank you Sweden and thank you people of Gothenburg.
This is the kind of place I'd love to live.
Thank you 😍🙏
Natanyahu is a danger to humanity
Thanks Sweden, hopefully more countries and people follow
End all inequities, slavery and apartheid in the world. The human race deserves better !!!! 😂
Can we make Gothenburg mayor world leader?
Yay Sweden!!!!
Excellent development, let hope others follow.
Yes, that's it
Thank you Sweden. ❤
Just remeber that boycotts work both ways
Sweden also recogniced Palestine as a stat in 2014 !🇸🇪🇸🇪 äntligen något positivt !
Where is economy sanctions where is no fly zones where is usa coalation striker which used against muslim country in Iraq which mised against isreal.
Hope your gonna ban UK goods too then and American and other European countries.
Those protesters look VERY Swedish 😅😅
It's illegal in America to NOT buy Israeli or Jew'ish goods.
In USA you can boycott USA, but not Israel. I can't believe how blind the Americans have been.
@@mtr3754 Yeah, it's totally all backwards
Free.Palestine❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
How long did it take them to ban Russia and did Russia commit a g crime?
If this law passes and you really look into the details there would be boycotts on so many nations' goods as many nations occupy land that isn't rightfully theirs.
Commending. Stay firm in your efforts.
Hamas no hizo el conflicto, el conflicto hizo a Hamas.
Bravo Sweden 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤️
