In response to the Palestinian civil society call for boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS), and in the spirit of successful boycotts in other civil rights movements, from the grapes of California to the buses of Alabama to South Africa, we call on Zabar’s to stop selling SodaStream.

SodaStream is made in an Israeli settlement on Palestinian land, illegal under international law. Zabar's, take a stand as an important New York establishment. Be on the right side of history. Take SodaStream off the shelf.
