Im very disappointed...
One text message circulating in the Netherlands claimed that Aldi and Lidl would "donate part of their profits to Israel." The chain message was begun by a group of activists and quickly spread through the Moroccan community The two companies quickly denied the rumour in the hope of limiting losses. It is not known whether many customers heeded the call, but American coffee chain Starbucks admitted the boycott had already caused "a downturn" in business.
Alhamdhulillah!

Aldi and Lidl are NOT donating to israel!!!!!
Its a HOAX!!

It's Tesco, Sainsburies, Marks&Spencer and all those big jewy stores that you ought to be boycotting! The big companies are those made bankrupt and taken over by Zionists!!
And then they try and make it worse by diverting people from the normal stores- it means more money for them!
Support those that don't support Israel!

Yup read this also:
http://www.inminds.co.uk/article.php?id=10273
Chain emails and SMS's have been circulating calling for a boycott of Lidl and Aldi supermarkets claiming that:
"Lidl and Aldi supermarkets declared publicly on TV from their HQ's in Germany that they will donate all their takings/ revenue to Israel during this war on Gaza."
The public revulsion at the slaughter in Gaza is such that fearing a mass consumer boycott both companies have reacted quickly and issued statements that they do not fund Israel, that the rumours are not true.
Aldi's press release states:
Following the communication of unfounded rumours, Aldi confirms that it does not provide Israel with any source of financial funding or support the Israel – Gaza conflict. Aldi has never declared that it will donate store revenue to Israel during the conflict and any such claims are completely untrue. One of Aldi’s core principles is to remain independent of any political views and situations.

Lidl's press release in German simply denies the rumnour.

It should be pointed out that whilst Lidl and Aldi may not be sending their revenue to Israel, along with other supermarkets like Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Morrisons, Marks & Spencer, and Waitrose they stock fruit and vegetables stolen from the Palestinian occupied territories and exported under the Israeli label Carmel Agrexco. For example both stock israeli sweet potatoes:
Leading Israeli exporter Agrexco is sending a vibrant array of products to the UK this winter.. The UK is Agrexco’s main market for sweet potato exports, ahead of Holland for distribution across Europe, and France. The exporter supplies to Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Morrisons, Marks & Spencer, and Waitrose, as well as discounters Lidl and Aldi.

Pressure must be brought on all these supermarkets to stop selling produce grown on stolen Palestinian land.
I know it says on the website that they denied the rumours, where's the problem? =D
I highlighted what I wanted you to read.
