Should the world boycott US products to protest the terror attacks on Iraq?

I and friends have boycotted US products in Australia since the US terror attack on Iraq. How do Americans feel about other countries' people boycotting US products?
Additional Details
To those asking when the US supported terrorism - latin America, Indonesian terror in East Timor, Saddam's terror in Iraq when it fought Iran.

The average American doesn't care what you do. Have at it.

go ahead and boycott US products. we literally do not care.

while you're at it, stop using Boeing built jet aircraft -- they're a US product. and stop using US designed military aircraft -- there are plenty of inferior products you can buy instead. And don't even think about trying to get any Aegis missile ships with SM-3 anti-missile missiles -- they're US products which you're boycotting.

oh, and don't use US built or designed satellites like the GPS system -- you're boycotting it. And don't use the Internet -- it was invented and designed in America. Ditto for the personal computer and the Windows operating system. Don't use our CPU chips or video chips either -- you're boycotting them.

and stop using the telephone -- we invented it. don't use touchtone pads on your replacement devices -- they were invented by a US corporation.


btw, don't ask us to defend you either. we can't afford it.

If you'd like to boycott our products, go ahead! You have the freedom to do so and the US will make sure of it.

That's idiotic. Let's boycott Chinese products because they pollute the environment! You just make your own life harder with no real gain.

Could care less my friends....you do know Australia was once just a colony of criminals right? So why would we care if a group of criminals got upset? Ive been to iraq with Aussies, good Aussies who believe in the mission....don't know where you are coming from, but its the wrong place.

The question is not very intelligent. For one thing, you fail to realize who the terrorists are. We're at war with terrorists, not the other way around. Because you don't like our involvement in the war, we could turn the question around and ask, "Should the world boycott Australian products because of the inhumane, unequal treatment that country has brought upon the Aborigines?" Or how about "Should the world boycott Australian products because of the harsh treatment your country has put on illegal immigrants now in detention centers, some for more than five years?" I think you are too immature to understand the complexities of world inter-relations.

Personally, I don't care what you do. I'm sure a lot of other people in this country don't give a damn either. I would say that I'm boycotting "Foster" beer, but I don't buy that undrinkable crap anyway.

i think maybe you should stop watching television or listening to the media as most is idiotic left wing drivel ... (ok i know some .. or most willdisagree with me..)
but we don't see the media pointing out how horrible china is or bagging the ol ussr or russia nowadays or telling us how terrible the russians were to their own people and anyone who disagreed with them..

I agree with most of the answers made to this question in that people seem to be becoming rascist - and they are rascist against americans...

why not other peple or coutries?

simply because america is one country that is very unlikey to fight back as if the media junky people out there bag america it makes the other coutries who are far worse feel safe.... so they can continue to kill and torture to their hearst content with people worrying about a littl sleep deprivation that is labeled the worst kind of torture out there - oh please - are their hands hacked off or their tongues split? i think not....


Hjaduk
That'll do a whole lot of nothing. Still can't believe how people judge our troops like that. It is war after all, and accidents will happen. Our ROE is so strick on how we can fight its ridiculous. You have no idea of the wrath and destruction we could really unleash upon the country if we were set loose like the insurgents.

Terrorism is when a bunch of subhumans purposely fly airliners into buildings and purposely slaughter thousands of innocent people, or when subhumans purposely strap explosives to their bodies and walk into a crowded market filled with innocent men, women, and children. The operative word here is P-U-R-P-O-S-E-F-U-L.

Now, Mr Wonderfully Angelic, show us where and when the US military P-U-R-P-O-S-E-L-Y slaughtered innocents with the sole intention of fomenting and spreading terror.

If you can't see any difference between military actions and terrorist attacks then you just go right along and continue making yourself feel all warm and fuzzy by doing what you and the other morons in your group erroneously believe is the right and decent thing to do.

If they boycott the US, the whole world economy will collapse. US is the major or biggest market in the whole world, even those countries who hates US has no other place to sell their goods other than the US... Think what happens if US boycotts most of them ? Bring manufacturing back here in the US. Our economy will be strong again. Manufacturing will be back here in the US
