Good.
Go fash, lose cash.
Here’s hoping the BDS movement gains steam to send those numbers even higher.
In the same time Israel government gives financial incentives for new a settler-colonial migration wave, notably from Western countries only.
Against a backdrop of growing interest in immigration to Israel from Jewish people in France, Britain, America and Canada, Israel plans to give financial aid to new ‘olim’ in a bid to increase immigration from Western countries

Making the minimum wage worker who stocks shelves have to put back the boxes you misplace isn’t going to win the war.
Hey hes a job creator. If the stores too neat they’ll start downsizing staff.
The idea is that once it’s moved by customers to a different section, the store will treat the product as bad and toss it out. Yes you’re right more work for the minimum wage guy who has to throw it out now, but the idea is that enough loss on that specific product and the manager may stop ordering that/those brands all together. They might not realize the products are related to Israel, just that the other brands are still selling, so by happenstance, the Israeli dates look inferior due to perceived customer purchasing habits. Eventually they may not be ordered anymore and that affects the parent company in Israel.
It’s a really long game, but that’s what I gather the goal of that specific protest would be.
That’s not how it works anywhere I’ve heard of (and I’ve lived in the USA and Europe and worked in an American grocery store). Maybe if it’s a refrigerated product in the US (or vandalized somehow), but that’s not the case with dates.
Not saying that is actually how it will play out, I agree with you that it only actually happens to refrigerated or frozen products (that get discarded when misplaced). That’s not to say it doesn’t also happen to shelf stable products too and we don’t know about it, but I think that is unlikely.
I was just clarifying what I interpreted the original commenters intentions behind said protest would be, not that it would be effective. I believe the interpretation that it’s just about messing with low income workers to be not quite what the intention was.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Gross domestic product (GDP) plunged 19.4% on an annualized basis compared with the July-to-September quarter, when it grew by a revised 1.8%, Israel’s Central Bureau of Statistics said Monday in its initial estimate.
Fixed investment by businesses tumbled 67.8%, “driven by a near-halt in residential building resulting from military call-ups and a reduction in Palestinian workers,” according to Liam Peach, senior emerging markets economist at Capital Economics.
The conflict has made it even harder to raise money, but demand for tech firms’ services has held up well as the industry serves primarily international customers, according to StartupNation Central CEO Avi Hasson.
The world’s biggest tech companies, which collectively employ thousands of people in Israel, continue to do business in the country, Hasson also noted, but added that “huge uncertainty” remained over the duration and consequences of the war.
In a strong vote of confidence, Intel said in December that it would stick with plans to build a chipmaking factory in the south of Israel, pouring $25 billion into the project — an investment Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has described as the biggest in the country’s history.
Jon Medved, the CEO of OurCrowd, a major global venture investing platform based in Israel, told CNN that a delegation of Korean investors was due to arrive in the country within days “despite horribly difficult flight arrangements.”
