UPDATE MONDAY 10:45AM PST:: Victory! The flag of Israel now appears on the international flags page with the flags of other nations. This is a change from yesterday, when I took the screenshot below and posted this item. Congratulations and thanks to all those who contacted United States Flag Store.
United States Flag Store offers for sale all the flags of the nations of the world, with one conspicuous exception. It does offer the flag of Palestine.
If you’re shopping for international flags, please do boycott the United States Flag Store. If you support Israel against jihad terror, they don’t want your business anyway.
(Thanks to Brian.)
UPDATE: Many people have written in to point out that United States Flag Store does offer the Israeli flag, just not on the main international flag page. But why not on that page?
smith says
why dont you have an Israeli flag?…
Duv says
They do sell the Israeli flag under the Religious flag category. Odd, but no conspiracy that I can see…
John says
The company does sell the Israeli flag. Please see https://www.united-states-flag.com/israel.html
I’m not sure why the Israeli flag is missing from that list, but it is probably a mistake. The company’s website isn’t great.
I would suggest contacting the company about their website and suggesting adding the flag of Israel rather than going to all the effort of trying to organise a boycott. I’m sure there are plenty of issues more worthy of your time and effort than a boycott of a little company selling flags via a second-rate website.
Regards
John
Jim says
It is under international flags and religious flags. Never the less it is sold on the site.
Ren says
Is the store’s owner a muslim?
H.L. Menken says
The story is FALSE. Robert should have researched this before posting the story. Makes him look bad! https://www.united-states-flag.com/israel.html And Israel is in the “I” pop-up list. Have no idea what type of incompetent Robert’s informant is.
Research. THEN post.
Robert Spencer says
In reality, even if they offer it elsewhere, Israel’s isn’t listed among the international flags. Why not?
Jim says
I found it under the international flags…Made in the USA.
Ren says
Israel flag is not found on the main page of international flags [https://www.united-states-flag.com/world.html]. It can only be found on the “specific” Israel flag page [https://www.united-states-flag.com/israel.html].
Jack Holan says
Excellent point. It will be interesting to hear their justification. By the way there is one well known organization that does the exact same thing. It really burns my back-Side since they purport to be equalitarin. I’ve brought up this fact that Doctors Without Borders does not List Israel as a country where they perform services but they List Palestine as a Country where they do so.
JawsV says
You misspelled your name, H.L. It’s spelled Mencken. Makes you look bad! Research your name, you incompetent! THEN post.

Richard Koethe says
they DO sell the Israeli flag. Did a search on their web site and it gave me 3 options to purchase (sizes and types).
Jack Holan says
I did check out the online store by running a search so that I wouldn’t put my put my foot in my mouth. I’ve done that once or twice. It’s correct that they don’t show the the Israeli Flag where all the other Flags are shown. However the store does offer what is described in terms of Flags (quality made made Flags for varying budgets & purposes). I’m usually very hard on boyctteers but the Store clearly describes the Flag as the SFlag of Israel with mixing any politics or qualifiers. I hope my interpretation is correct.
Alan Berger says
I just searched there site! The Israeli flag seems to be available.
I’m thinking, your notice of a boycott changed there minds.
Keep up the good work.
Robert Spencer says
Not the point. Why is Israel’s not listed among the international flags?
Rob says
Sir, your blog post says they do not offer it. Not that it’s not on the list of international flags. Your cause is better supported with precision.
JawsV says
Spencer has precision. You don’t. You’re a nobody, Rob!
Jack Holan says
If Robert said it in this fashion the question still remains. Why would a company not show the Flag of Israel, a Country that the UN & EU is insanely fixated on at every level and hypocritical as it would seem in light of the past few years with the migration. Instead this Company show the Flag of an area politically self created through terrorism not only on Israeli Jews, Jews, but Christians, Druze, and Muslims from any area of the world. They continue to use this terrorism on both genders and all age groups even though you would think Politically things are going their way. They are clear no Jews will be allowed if they win. Hamas is clear it plans to drive Israel and Israelis into the Sea. The Flag of this entity you show in you Parade of Worlds Nations Flags but not Israel that has given so much in Medicine, Agriculture, Economics,Technology. How do you justify such an “oversight”?
Jack Holan says
Robert, we’re in agreement 100% that the Israeli Isr be shown in the Parade of Flags. Each chip-away leads to another. I only brought attention to the readers that this businessman at least has the common sense to be selling Israel’s Flag albeit that it’s not a straight shot to find it
I can envision the day that the EU,UN, Sweden or France will soon conjur up an excuse to relies my Flag & fly one of a non-Country Palestine committed to Jude’s Free land run by them, from the Jordan to the Sea Where as Israel has already agreed to return( hate the verb it’s not accurate) 98% of the land. The problem is they want it all and know most Theocratic, Despotic Countries in the General Assembly would agree. Statehood at the expense of Israel’s existence not by negotiation but acclimation. The terrorists are rewarded for their terrorism and Israel’s humanity towards them is rejected as a ploy.
wjamyers says
This is a due diligence fail… this means i can no longer share your content without scrutinizing it for elementary due diligence failures. That is too bad. There are ENDLESS legit problems to raise, false stories like this detract from that message and empower false accusers.
Robert Spencer says
In reality, even if they offer it elsewhere, Israel’s isn’t listed among the international flags. Why not?
Rob says
Please edit your original blog post that reflect correction of your mistaken report.
JawsV says
Why don’t you bug off, Rob? You’re a moron compared to Spencer! Let me guess — you’re a Stanford leftist! Oh, are we reading your latest book, Rob? No? I didn’t think so!
Bravo Robert Spencer!
wjamyers says
Why not? You’d have to ask them, not sure why you’re asking me. Let me ask you about YOUR behavior… why did you post the obvious falsehood that they don’t “offer” an Israeli flag, risking making thoughtless sharers look like credulous fools? I’m not a thoughtless sharer, so you just devalued your content to me. Precision of language is essential in this seemingly endless battle, you have done so much for us all, but you can and should do better than this. I don’t see David Wood making this kind of elementary own-goal, for example.
Jack Holan says
The missing Israeli Flag (a Country) is a “legit” Countrythat is missing from the Worlds Nations Flags. The Palestinian Flag (a non-Country) is shown with the World Flags of Nations. Robert’s information seems clear and on target to me.
gravenimage says
I found the Israel flag under “United Nations International flags”. The “Palestinian” flag is not under this category.
I found the “Palestinian” flag under “Other International flags”. One of the oddities in this group is the “Afro-American flag”, the “Erin Go Bragh” Irish-American flag”, and the South Vietnam flag.

Jean Terry says
I am happy to see, as you said, that they sell the Israeli flag. Thank you.
gravenimage says
My screw-up. I linked to a similarly named but different company.
Transmaster says
I will admit it does seem odd that the Israeli flag is hidden. Mr. Spencer has a point.
Rick Spencer says
It does sell an ISRAEL flag:
https://www.united-states-flag.com/israel.html
Transmaster says
Now I understand and I can see the reasoning United States Flags lists the Israeli flag in the Religious flag category.
https://www.united-states-flag.com/religiousflags.html
gravenimage says
Israel is a secular state.
Transmaster says
In the United States where this site is marketing their flags, The Israeli flag is a religious flag.
Wellington says
No, Transmaster, Israel’s flag is not “a religious flag.” It is the flag of a nation state which uses the Star of David in its flag to betoken heritage and not just something purely religious (after all, a significant percentage of Israeli Jews are not religious in the least). Might as well assert that many Islamic nations fly only a religious flag (e.g., Saudi Arabia). Ditto for Nordic nations which have a cross in their flag. Ditto too for the UK flag which incorporates the cross of St. George and that of St. Andrew. Ditto for the Confederate flag which is the cross of St. Andrew with 13 stars in it. And so on. And so why are you singling out the Israeli flag? Yeah, why?
Moreover, in Israel religious minorities are fully protected. In what Muslim-majority nation are non-Muslims fully protected? Hell, Israeli Arabs have far more freedoms than do Arabs in the over twenty Arab nations that exist. Do you get any of this? Do you really still want to go on about how Israel’s flag is “a religious flag?” Truly? Are you this dense?
Your turn.
gravenimage says
Spot on, Wellington.
This would be like claiming that the flags of Sweden and Switzerland are “religious flags”.
John Smith says
Contact United States Flag Store and report this error, an obvious attempt by an employee, or possible 3rd party outsource, that hates Israel and refuses to acknowledge it as a country.
Norman Moffatt says
I looked on their website, the Israeli flag is there.

Jack Holan says
If we were to sit down and list the heinous criesever committed by mankind real or not in any time period, say Israel performed the Act the UN, EU, OIC, UNHCR would ALL concur its true. SICK
Lou Hope says
The flags shown under the religious category, aside from the Vatican, all directly name religions (e.g., Methodist, Buddhist). No country’s flag, other than that of Israel, is shown in that category. I do think that every time Israel is slighted or “palestine” is elevated to country status, it needs to be called out. I have contacted the company.
Suebe says
I will check to see where my company orders flags from and will protest to management if it is this flag store
A. Kern says
Dear Mr. Spencer:
the important point sees to have been missed in the comments here…. there have been several instances
(including on your site? but especially on dreuz info – several times)
of references to the old Larousse dictionaries (back to the ’30s) that correctly showed the Israeli ‘Star’ as the flag of…. “Palestine” !!!
These instances are proof that of course Palestine was the Jewish land. As the writer George Jonas (great book: Verdict) once said, the cry to Jews used to be: Get out of Europe, go to Palestine! Then it was Get out of Palestine! So – “first, don’t be here – then, don’t be there – in other words, don’t BE!”
He nailed it.
Jack Dawkins says
If they sell an Islamic State flag than they should sell a Jewish state flag
Mo says
I emailed them and they responded. It’s now on the front page with the other ones.
Lou Hope says
Same here.
wjamyers says
Why have you still not corrected the false claim in the headline that they do not “offer” the flag? As long as you fail to do so, this article will serve the regressive left as an example of how Jihad Watch content cannot be trusted: “Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus.” I sure hope I never see David Wood being this imprecise with his claims. Like I said… there’s an endless litany of legitimate pathology to expose, getting it so wrong over something so trivial only hurts our cause. If the question is “why do they hide the Israeli flags they sell?”, that’s another, perfectly legitimate question, IMO. Fix the headline, please!
Carol King says
It seems the very loud squeaky wheel was heard. First thing this am, the Israeli flag was not among the international flags, but it is now. And no Palestinian flag listed among the nations.
Outstanding!
Joseph says
I visited the online site of this store and under international flags there was the flag of Israel. This article needs to be corrected.
Robert Spencer says
In reality, they added it after we drew attention to their omission of it.
Barry Sommer says
And the Palestinian flag has been removed! The power of the people once again comes out on top. Than ks to US Flag for making the changes. Thanks to Robert Spencer for bringing it to our attention.
Bob Ingersoll says
You have undermined your credibility with this crap, Robert!
I was there a few hours after your first, unvetted, story. Regardless of things missing from where YOU or your snap-judgment correspondent would want them, Israel was in the pop-up menu and easy to find. Bogus. Silly. Don’t claim credit for what never was an issue and you had nothing to “resolve”. Kill this story while you can. What a bunch of bunk!
Robert Spencer says
In reality, Israel was omitted from the International Flags section. Now, because of this post and emails from Jihad Watch readers, Israel is there again. That’s an issue, and a victory.
JawsV says
Who are you Bob and why are you so thrilled insulting Spencer? What’s with the digs and jabs? Don’t talk to Spencer like that! Who in the heck do you think you are??? Take your insults and shove it! Troll.
solange silverman says
Next, we need to get the nonexistent “Palestinian” flag removed.
