Arab League Boycott of Israel

This report provides background information on the Arab League boycott of Israeli companies and Israeli-made goods and US efforts to end its enforcement. The boycott has three tiers: it prohibits citizens from Arab League members from engaging in any business with the Israeli government or its citizens, it extends the boycott to any entity world-wide that does business in Israel, and it prohibits from doing business with companies that do business with “blacklisted” companies. The author examines the background of the boycott, its current status and impact and finishes by looking at US activities to end the boycott.
