We have been boycotting companies such as Starbucks, McDonalds, Nike, Pepsi, Coca Cola, L'Oreal, etc. who support Israel. Starbucks has really suffered. General Mills used to produce many of its products on land stolen from the Palestinians. Sustained pressure from the public forces them to stop. Good work, people! Stay the course!
But you should know about companies like Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics, Motorola, Caterpillar, Raytheon, Woodward (manufactured bombs Israel used to blow up hospitals and schools still have their serial number label and corporate logo on them), Hewlett Packard (makes the computer systems Israel uses against the Palestinians and maintains servers for their police and military), and BAE Systems (builds the weapons, machinery, and technology Israel uses for their genocidal pogrom).
The tax money you pay that goes to Israel ends up in the pockets of these corporations.
They're not ashamed to admit it. Lockheed Martin recently issued a statement saying they are "Proud of the significant role it has fulfilled in the security of the state of Israel."
And business has been good. One example; BAE Systems gained more than $30 billion in value in the last few weeks. The more Palestinian blood that’s spilled, the more profits end up in corporate pockets. This is the reason why the US, UK, and France supports Israel.
But there's more.
Amnesty International reported that many US police departments receive their training from Israel. You are paying your own police departments to go to one of the world's worst human rights violators to be trained to use Israeli military tactics on you.
Be careful who you give your money to.
I hope you do not have family that is under this tyranny. How is it that victims become perpetrators and how distressing it is to see the vampires who profit from blood. May peace be upon us all.
