That is why anti-Semitism is the opposite of our policy. We seek great ends by decisive means. We despise and reject those who seek ignoble ends by ineffective means. To organise a boycott of a country's goods is to impose a blockade, and a blockade is an act of war. It is therefore very likely at some point to produce a shooting war.
Nothing is more likely in the end to promote violence and bloodshed.
Yet it is the professional pacifists who are often the prime movers in the boycott business. The first victims are inevitably those whom the boycott is supposed to help, the weakest members of the community thus attacked. If the boycott of South Africa succeeded, the people who would suffer most would be the poorest blacks, who would lose their employment and could not much be assisted by an impoverished economy. The Union government could carry on indefinitely on a siege economy, and those in the weakest positions would suffer. So would the interests of peace.
