Goliath, the Philistine Giant is still trying to crush David and Israel

The Philistines, now called the Palestinians and one of the biggest corrupt organizations in the world, the United Nations, are trying to intimidate and ruin real productive work in the West Bank. It actually produces something other than lying rhetoric. m/r

Kristen Davis, Scarlett Johansson chose different paths when work, Oxfam clashed | Fox News

Kristen Davis knows a few things about what Scarlett Johansson has been going through this week.
Five years ago, Davis was a Global Ambassador for the international aid group Oxfam. She was also working as a spokesperson for Ahava, a cosmetics company located in a Jewish settlement in the West Bank, which Oxfam deems to be illegally occupied by Israel.
Oxfam said she had to choose between Ahava and them. After much pushing and pulling, Davis decided to stick with Oxfam and sever her ties with Ahava, and her contract with them was allowed to expire.
Fast forward to this week, when Oxfam announced Johansson's support of the Israeli company SodaStream, operating in a West Bank settlement, was incompatible with her role as an Oxfam Global Ambassador.
This time around, the actress chose to stay with her company and part ways with Oxfam.
Johansson announced Wednesday that she was resigning her Oxfam role because of a "fundamental difference of opinion."
Oxfam said it accepted her resignation.
