Leading the backlash was Israeli Prime Minister Natftali Bennett, who said the Vermont-based company known for its progressive activism has branded itself “the anti-Israel ice cream.
“There are many ice cream brands, but only one Jewish state,” said Mr. Bennett in a statement. “Ben & Jerry’s has decided to brand itself as the anti-Israel ice cream. This decision is morally wrong and I believe that it will become clear that it is also commercially wrong.”
He added that the “boycott against Israel a democracy surrounded by islands of terrorism reflects a total loss of way. The boycott does not work and will not work, and we will fight it with full force.”
