PUMA
sponsort de Israëlische Voetbalbond (Israel Football Association >> IFA). IFA dat
tegen de regels van de FIFA in ook voetbalwedstrijden organiseert in de illegale Israëlische nederzettingen op
de illegaal door Israël bezette West Bank….. Van de FIFA behoef je
geen actie te verwachten, die zijn alleen geïnteresseerd in macht
uitoefenen en gigantische kapitalen binnenharken (o.a. met hulp van PUMA)….. Kortom CODEPINK
heeft groot gelijk de wereld op te roepen PUMA te boycotten.
Morgen
begint CODEPINK aan een Twitterstorm gericht op PUMA, lullig genoeg alleen een actie voor de VS, echter ook in de rest van de wereld wordt PUMA verkocht en een Twitterbericht is zo gemaakt aan de hand van het voorbeeld (knippen en plakken), ook kan je alleen je mailadres opgeven en dan op verzenden klikken. Doe ajb mee en
geeft het door!!!
Boycott
PUMA, End Apartheid!
Did
you know that sportswear manufacturer PUMA is the main sponsor for
the Israeli Football Association (IFA)? The
IFA maintains football clubs in illegal Jewish-only Israeli
settlements in the West Bank. The IFA is in belligerent breach of
Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA)
regulations which prohibit member associations from holding
competitions on occupied territory without permission. PUMA, by
sponsoring the IFA, is enabling and normalizing Israel’s illegal
settlements and violations of Palestinian human rights.
Over
200 Palestinian teams and athletes are calling for a boycott of
PUMA! Join
us and 200 Palestinian football teams as we boycott PUMA until they
end their sponsorship of IFA in our week of action. During this
week, CODEPINK activists around the country will protest outside of
their local PUMA store. If you want to protest your local PUMA
store, sign
up here.
We will connect you with a CODEPINK staff person and the resources to
make this happen!
Not
by a PUMA store? Send
a message to
PUMA that you are boycotting their products until they stand by their
stated commitment to social justice by answering the call of
Palestinian athletes and stop their sponsorship of IFA.
Already
have PUMA gear? Transform
your product by writing on it or placing a sign next to the logo to
say “PUMA out of Palestine” and tweet
us the
picture.
If
you are located in NYC, join
our action outside of the Rockefeller Center PUMA location on October
26th at noon, more details here.
Thank
you all for your support. We hope you join us in demanding justice
for Palestine!
