Walmart is facing a backlash over an Israeli soldier costume on sale for Halloween.
The costume, which resembles a uniform worn by Israeli soldiers in elite combat units, is available on the discount department store chain’s website for $27.44, reduced from $57.62.
The Walmart Facebook page was flooded with criticism, including calls for a boycott of the chain.
One post called the costume “extremely offensive and highly insensitive, not only to the millions of Palestinian-Americans that shop in your stores, but to anyone who has an ounce of humanity in their bodies.”’
On the Walmart site, under customer reviews, one commenter wrote, “Might as well sell a Hitler outfit for children as well! Pitiful!”
Another said: “Your little one can now go to his friend’s house, and take over their bedroom, and all of their toys and claim that God has given him/her the right to take it. If the friend refuses, your little IDF soldier can respond with force, and if they fight back, claim anti-Semitism, the right to defend their new room full of God given toys and level the whole family and neighborhood block!”
Walmart has not publicly responded.
A “Sheikh Fagin nose,” a latex prosthetic nose which the Walmart website deems “perfect for an Arab Sheik,” has likewise generated criticism for its name, the stereotypical greedy Jew in Charles Dickens’ “Oliver Twist,” the BBC reported.

Egads ! Quick , call up the Thought Police !
We can sell or buy any thing we want. If you don’t like it, just “Get The Hell Out Of Palestine” Jews.
I assure you, the Zio Christians would just love to dress their brats up like an Israeli Soldier .
Wall Mart is a Bible Belt staple.
Rothschild’s are a major investor in the notorious chain.
They own Israel….it gets the kids in the right mindset .
Imagine them jumping if a WW 2, or WW 1, German uniform was offered. ?
Greetings all,
How appropriate that Walmart is offering up this children’s Halloween costume.
Now the world can see the Israeli IDF taking their rightful place among
all the OTHER archetypal MONSTERS that make up the nightmares in the dark.
Of course, there may be some “blowback” from the werewolves, vampires,
zombies, mummies, witches and Frankenstein’s monsters about this new ghoul on the block.
After all, killing and terrorizing one or two select victims is one thing . . .
. . . but terrorizing and carrying out the systematic genocide of an entire population is TRULY monstrous!!! 😉
