The Starbucks boycott started because Starbucks did not want their union using their logo for pro-Palestine posters and Starbucks sued them for trademark infringement. Starbucks has no stores in Israel and does not fund Israel. https://eu.azcentral.com/story/news/local/tempe/2024/03/07/does-starbucks-support-israel-or-palestine/72850075007/ https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/05/business/starbucks-layoffs-middle-east.html#:~:text=%E2%80%9CIt%20is%20important%20to%20note,partnership%20in%20Israel%20in%202003.
