Protesting against Israel’s terror attacks while also boycotting Coca Cola and Nestlé?
I’m thinking based
I wish the reason were more reasonable. Coca Cola is the main plastic bottle polluter on the planet, while Nestle has very questionable practices in 3rd world countries, specifically, but not exclusively when it comes to water sources. These would be much better reasons for boycotting these companies than their alleged support of Israel.
Mainly because support for Israel can be nuanced and on a spectrum as in supporting the current bombing campaign, versus the current right wing extremist government of Israel, versus the support of the apartheid in Israel, versus the right of Israel to exist as an ethno-state for Jewish people. I wonder where Coca Cola and Nestle would land… and where Turkey thinks it draws the line.

Nestle has awful practices everywhere
Dang, it took a war for people to dump Coke and Nestle. I wonder how long will this boycott/ban last.
Except, Ukraine called for a boycott against Nestle because they are one of the few that keep operating in Russia and nobody listened.
And Ukraine is actually at war.
Israel got attacked by a load of extremists and since has been massacring civilians in retaliation. That’s not a war.
We are talking about the Turkish government. Their attitude to Ukraine is way more ambivalent than their attitude to Israel.
Israel support or not, this is just a good move in general
Doing something right for the wrong reason is still a win
There are so so many reasons to drop Nestlé. That they had the ability to do so but waited until now says more about them than anything else.
