After the popular ice cream company pledged to stop selling its product in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, several states said they would divest.

"I think Ben & Jerry's and Unilever are being characterized as boycotting Israel, which is not the case at all" Greenfield said."It's not boycotting Israel in anyway."

"I'm anti-Jewish? I'm a Jew," Cohen said, adding that he supports a two-state solution and Israel's right to exist. He believes Israeli policy endorsing settlements"keep on making it harder and harder to actually have a two-state solution," he said. "By that reasoning, we should not sell any ice cream anywhere," Cohen said."I've got issues with what's being done in most every state and most every country."
