  2. Brand131 It's not about telecoms alone, is it? It's about Israel increasingly becoming the target of consumer boycotts. Orange is a strong, worldwide brand. The organisers must see this as a victory, and Netanyahu's indignant reaction as a nice bonus.

  4. Brand131 Now that is inconsequential. They just withdrew from Israel and they're not looking to invade any time soon.

  5. Brand131 Er, Netanyahu fusses no end about one telecoms provider calling it quits in Israel. Somehow it seems to matter a great deal.
