boycotter

What, after all, is the difference in moral attitude between boycotting a country and barring a boycotter from it?

“I mean, $24 for a nice dress? I just couldn’t resist. Gosh, I’m not a very good boycotter. “

For the past 35 years, every administration, including a reelection-seeking Obama himself in 2011, has protected Israel with the U.S. veto because such a Security Council resolution gives immense legal ammunition to every boycotter, anti-Semite and zealous European prosecutor to penalize and punish Israelis.

A fellow boycotter, furniture retailer Claus Ihlemann, said by skipping the market this month, he will miss discovering new vendors to supply Decorum Furniture, his contemporary furniture store in Norfolk, Virginia.

As a boycotter you join a popular crowd, and you're safe in the knowledge you will get automatic applause from your intellectual and literary milieu.
