Support Israel and you Support Apartheid & Genocide. A Financial Model for Divestment

Good news from Israel to help the losers and victimologists out of their depression and to recognise what a successful society is like:

Israeli Electronics Teaming with Northrop Grumman Space & Mission Systems. RADA Electronic Industries Ltd. (NASDAQ: RADI), of Israel, announced today that it has signed a Teaming Agreement with Northrop Grumman Space & Mission Systems Corporation to cooperate in the construction and installation of the Skyguard(TM) High Energy Laser Defensive System aimed at hostile rockets and missiles interception for use by the State Of Israel. Skyguard(TM) is the end product of over thirty years of development of laser weapon systems by NGST. Skyguard(TM) has higher power and a larger beam than previous designs, making it a much more capable system. A single Skyguard(TM) system can defend a large civilian population or industrial area, large military installation and/or deployed forces. The first Skyguard(TM) system could be deployed in Israel within 18 months of date of order.

India to buy Israeli air defence system. India has agreed to buy the Spyder system in the deal worth about $240 million. The truck-mounted system is made by Israel's Rafael armaments company. The Spyder is designed to counter attacks by aircraft, helicopters, unmanned aerial vehicles and precision guided munitions.

Israeli Bomb-Sniffing Breakthrough for BagsIsraeli startup TraceGuard aims to thwart terrorists with technology it claims can detect solid and liquid explosives with greater accuracy.

Busy week for Israeli Hi-Tech Amdocs ended a busy week of deals for Israeli hi-tech companies, expanding its presence in the Chinese telecommunications market. That deal followed Tower Semiconductor winning a contract with California-based Ikanos Communications to manufacture its Vx160 high-performance DSL network processor. Earlier in the week, Netanya-based Saifun Semiconductor extended the license of the Saifun NROM(R) technology to Tower for the manufacture of Embedded Flash and Embedded EEPROM products. Ceragon Networks, a provider of high-capacity wireless backhaul solutions, said that Ukraine's largest mobile operator, Kyivstar GSM, has been deploying its new FibeAir 1500HP since the product's release in late 2005. HP Israel won a tender to establish the new computer environment for the Strauss Elite Group resulting from the new organizational needs arising after the merger of food companies Elite Industries and Strauss in 2004.

Israeli Company Develops Bananas That Defend Themselves. An Israeli biotech company has developed banana plants that are completely resistant to pathogenic nematodes, which are parasitic organisms that normally damage the plants and their fruit.

There will be Peace when Palestinians face their Nazi past and stop pretending they were not a part of it. Perhaps then, the Jews can forgive and buy cars from them also.

Ok, David and Goliath, no Jew has ever advocated wiping Germany off the map. And as a matter of fact, with all the nukes we supposedly have, and don't use or point in terms of revenge on Germany, we have absolutely let the Holocaust go for pennies on the dollar. We don't suicide bomb Germans for what they did in the 40's. We have never boycotted Germany. Most of us even buy Mercedes and Volkswagen. We don't ever blame the German people of today for the 40's. Wait a minute, come to think of it, here is my sticking point, even before WWII, not one Jew ever attacked a Nazi or perpetrated a terror act against Germany. Even the Reichstag fire was proven to have been set by Hitler's henchmen. While Palestinians have a much different story with attacks recorded as early as the 1700's and a direct CONNECTION to Hitler. What have they done that you forgive them so much?
And the most important thing, Israelis never packed Palestinians into trains and suffocated them, they never roasted a Palestinian in an oven, the population increased threefold under Israel while Jews were cut in half in Germany and ALL Over Europe. Israelis paid for most of their land, except what was taken as a result of attack. Germans haven't even paid for the gold teeth they stole from Jews mouths much less the lands, the businesses, and 90% of the art they stole unless you count reparations that are as I said, pennies on the Dollar. Touche' pussy cat.

If by copacetic you mean The Brits do not deserve to be maligned, boycotted or nuked, absolutely.

It's hilarious how all of these "green," people with their Israeli drip irrigation (no doubt about that) and their Israeli Kibbutz style free range cows, and their Israeli scientist developed solar panels (that's my sister yo! and I fucking love her, she's making solar panels 50% cheaper by 2010) don't even realize the extreme efforts Israel and it's people have put in to greening the world. Don't forget the Israeli desalination plants you will all need soon as your water goes drippin' away:)
That's exactly what Arab countries want you to do, divest from all of the technology that will lead to independence from oil!
Everything you thought you believed in, positive technology, responsible medicine, conservation, Israel tops the list:) We have planted more trees per person than any other nation in the world! And the Holocaust/Marijuana Party just helped legalize Medical Pot.
Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Don’t Boycott Israel, Boycott the Arab World.

That’s right. Refuse to deal with its repressive regimes. Go Green and develop alternatives to their oil. Freeze all their assets in US banks. And tell them they can have normal relations with the West when they recognize Israel within adjusted borders, share Jerusalem, help with the refugees, and open their countries to full diplomatic and cultural relations with Israel.

The Jews are genocidal? Please refresh my Catholic Lutheran Jewish Muslim Russian German Polish Ukrainian Lithuanian British Irish American genetic memory.
Then go to work on peaceful coexistence based on trust and short memories.
Maybe some of you should meet your neighbors instead of worrying about bullshit. Unless you prequalify your neighbors as unworthy of your communicative abilities.
I have never met anyone who shot a friend.
That is worthy of a large budget of time and energy.

wptv - what an inappropriate name. shouldn't it be ISMHJ as in "I shit myself hating Jews" or something similar? Or IWABAAILI (I was anal-ized by Arafat and I loved it)?

Why not just post on Al Jazeera? The audience there will be so much more receptive to this bullshit?

Oh yeah, and make sure you don't get cancer or crash and become quadrapalegic, the best medicine for that is currently coming from Israel.
In fact, TEVA is one of the ONLY socialist based pharma companies that actually does some damn good in the world!

More of WPTV talking to himself? What a surprise, make sure you divest from your computer brainiac. The operating system and proccessor were probably invented in Israel. Oh and your cell phone too. That way none of us have to hear from you ever again.

By the way, this divestment thing has been going on for years, apparently no one is buying that crap and everyone is buying good stuff from Israel which actually creates jobs for both sides.
I know I am, and I have five or six friends here to counter every one of the anti-semites on current.

Numerous Arab-Israeli conflicts followed, most notably the Six-Day War in June of 1967. It is important, in fact imperative, to understand that Jews only wished to live in peace from 1948 onwards when awarded three sections of Palestine by the UN the previous year (three other setions going to the Arabs). But the Arab Muslim world wanted no Jewish state and herein lies the real reason for the ongoing tragedy to this day. It is also important to grasp that terror against Jews long preceded the occupation of the West Bank and Gaza in 1967. The idea that if only the Jews would leave the occupied areas (occupied I might add out of the necessity of war) there would be peace is complete bullshit. So is the idea that Abraham, Jesus, et al. were really Muslims all along. This is Muslim fantasy, not reality. In any case, if even only one square mile of Israel remained it would still be too much for the bulk of the Arab Muslim world. No Israel is what the Arabs really want. Terror preceded occupation, not the other way around and anyone who says otherwise is either ignorant or mendacious. And Muslim distortion of the past represents just one more egregious wrong by the Islamic world at large, a world which is dysfunctional in the extreme and a burden to all mankind.

The ancient Hebrews apparently originally came from lower Mesopotamia in the Sumeria region. It is possible that even before this they originated from somewhere in the Arabian peninsula but this is highly speculative. The next migration was to roughly what is now Israel and surrondings and after that a portion (not all) of the Jews, for whatever reason or reasons, migrated to Egypt (Goshen).

The archeological record shows that another portion of the Jews remained behind and did not go to Egypt sometime in the middle of the second millennium B.C. When Jews returned from Egypt, again for whatever reason or reasons, while the nineteeth dynasty was ruling over the Nile river valley, these Jews encountered a very fluid situation. Other Semitic peoples occupied the Promised Land and shorlty thereafter (c.1200 B.C.) Philistines arrived in the Gaza area, probably coming from Asia Minor, but this too is not known for a certainty. By 1000 B.C. or so the ancient Hebrews had established a unified kingdom and ruled an area more extensive than Israel and the West Bank today. The timing was fortuitous for such a polity because neither Egypt nor any power in Mesopotamia was predominant then (the Egyptians had slipped into the Post-Imperial period beginning with the twennty-first dynasty and Assyrian power was in a lull at the time). Thereafter (c. 900 B.C), the Jews split into two kingdoms, probably due to dynastic and tribal rivalries. Disunified as they were and with the rise of the Assyrian Empire and then Chaldean power, the northern kingdom of the Jews disappeared from history, as did its people (c. 720 B.C.), while the southern kingdom was done in by the Chaldeans around 586 B.C. Thereafter followed the brief but tragic Babylonian Captivity of the Jews, the return to Palestine under the auspices of Persians who were far more tolerant than those running Iran today and the beginning of the construction of the Second Temple, the First having been destroyed by the Chaldeans in the early sixth century B.C.

After about two hundred years of Persian rule, the Jews were briefly goverened by Alexander the Great, then the Ptolemies till about 200 B.C. and then the Seleucids until the Maccabaean Revolt in 167 B.C. This revolt was successful and the Jews had their last independent state until 1948 A.D. when the Romans took over Palestine under Pompey's generalship in 63 B.C. Thereafter followed a turbulent Roman rule, replete with two Jewish revolts, one in the first century A.D., when the the Second Temple was destroyed by Titus, the wailing wall being a remnant of this, and the other was in the second century A.D. led by Bar Kochba, and this too was put down by the Romans during the time of the Emperor Hadrian. Following this the real Diaspora began and only in the late nineteenth century did large number of Jews begin to filter back into the Holy Land, ruled unproductively for centuries by the Ottoman Turks and their Arab subjects. The Jews bought land from absentee Turkish and Arab landlords, often at exorbitant prices. THEY DIDN'T STEAL IT. Following Ottoman defeat in WWI the British Mandate was set up to run a goodly section of the former Ottoman Empire. In 1922 about 78% of the Mandate was sectioned off and Transjordan was born. Jews were forbidden to remain or settle in it. That left about 22% of the original British Mandate, approximately half of which became the state of Israel in 1948.

The Arab position even before Israel was created was outright hostility to any Jewish state and violence against the Jews began in the 1920s at the instigation of a truly malevolent man, the Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin al-Husseini, a great admirer of Hitler it might be added. For self-defense purposes the Jews organized the Haganah (there were proto-groups even before this).

Thanks for that invaluable list of antisemites, scumbags, self-loathing Jews and traitors. Now I know who to hate.

Oh and thanks for the list of companies trading in and with Israel. Now I know who to support and buy from.

“I I join you and Howard Zinn and other colleagues and friends in the United States, Mexico, Chile, Argentina, Britain, and many other places in the world who are actively concerned with the exacerbation of tensions in congratulating you for your efforts to bring sanity and justice to the grave situation in Israel and Palestine.”
--Electa Arenal, Professor Emerita, CUNY Graduate Center

“I would like to express my support for the very carefully articulated demands that have emerged from the Hamshire campaign for disinvestment. As the parent of a sometime student at the college I am particularly pleased that the commitment to indivisible conceptions of justice and human rights for which the institution was once widely known are being maintained in this way.”
--Paul Gilroy, London School of Economics and Political Science
“Congratulations on succeeding in your divestment campaign. It's an enormously important model for universities and corporations around the world.”
--Wendy Brown, University of California, Berkeley
“The message from Hampshire College is clear, principled and deserves the support of all people who want peace with justice in the Middle East. Israel and its supporters, especially in the US, remain apparently blind to the horrible injustice it inflicts on the people of Palestine. The parallel to apartheid South Africa is not overdrawn and it is time that more people and institutions awoke to it."
--Dan Smith, Author & former Director of the International Peace Research Institute, Oslo
“I am writing to applaud the courageous stand Hampshire College has taken at the behest of the Hampshire Students for Justice in Palestine. It was an action taken in the best tradition of Hampshire College, which as I remember was established as a 'college with a conscience.' The Hampshire Students for Justice in Palestine prove that Hampshire has lived up to that aspiration."
--Dr. Roberta Koffman, Hampshire Alumnus

“I extend my enthusiastic congratulations to Hampshire College and to Students 
for Justice in Palestine for your courageous stand in support of human rights. 
As we have all learned from President Nelson Mandela, no one's freedom is
 complete until all are free. As Hampshire College and all of us learned 
during the long and often difficult years of the South African anti-apartheid 
struggle, international support through non-violent economic pressure such as
 divestment campaigns, plays an enormously important role. This is true in
 ending the Israeli occupation as much as it was for ending South African 
apartheid. At this moment when our own country is looking with hope towards a 
new era of change, we know that real change, based on justice, is something we 
must not only believe in but also fight for. Your decision to divest from
 Israeli occupation is part of that fight, and I applaud you for it.”

-- Phyllis Bennis, Fellow, Institute for Policy Studies
“Please find our endorsement of Hampshire College SJP's recent
 divestment efforts. […] The US Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation, a national coalition of 280 groups, applauds Hampshire College for again being among the 
leaders of the movement to divest their holdings in the service of human
 rights. As was the case with apartheid South Africa, the global Boycott, 
Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement seeks to nonviolently pressure 
Israel to end its systemic human rights abuses and violations of 
international law against Palestinians. Economic isolation and 
international pressure are crucial components to ending the Israeli 
confiscation of Palestinian land, expansion of Israel's illegal settlements,
 and Israel's targeting of Palestinian civilian lives and infrastructure.
 Combined with boycott campaigns, divestment both presses Israel to change 
its policies on human rights, and sends an important message to corporations 
that investors and consumers refuse to be complicit in human rights abuses.
 Hampshire College Students for Justice in Palestine's hard won campaign for 
divestment is truly a beacon for students and faculty seeking to
 nonviolently bring justice to Palestinians and peace and security to all.
 Peace & Power

Katherine M. Fuchs, US Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation
"Given the central role that Americans have played in the prevention of 
justice for the Palestinian people, the struggle for peace must be waged 
here as well. The brave decision taken by Hampshire College to divest itself
 from further complicity in the illegal and immoral actions undertaken by
 Israel may be seen in years to come as the first and decisive act in the
 move towards a just and permanent peace in the region. We are all global citizens and Hampshire College has just shown what that responsibility means. I applaud and whole-heartedly support them in their efforts."
--Sut Jhally, University of Massachusetts at Amherst

"Congratulations to the Hampshire College students on their successful campaign that has led to a historic decision: to divest from all financial ties with Israel. Citizens in the United States and Europe have been extremely slow in appreciating the effects of the continued Israeli onslaught against the Palestinians. The victory of the ultra-Right parties in the recent Israeli elections only proves that the timing of your decision was perfect. Let us hope that it triggers similar campaign and results on campuses throughout the Western world. Israel is an apartheid state and the convict's badge needs to be pinned firmly on the lapels of its leaders. What you have done will strike a chord everywhere and not least in beleaguered Gaza."

--Tariq Ali

 policies of apartheid are all unacceptable by any standards."
--Roger Waters, Musician, Pink Floyd
“I want to express my admiration and support for the actions of Hampshire 
College students in their successful campaign for divestment from financial 
ties with Israel. It is extremely important for Israel to know that its 
violence against Gaza and its long occupation of Palestinian lands is not 
acceptable to people in the United States. I hope your campaign will set an
 example for students all over the country, and lead to justice in the Middle
 East, as the divestment campaign helped end apartheid in South Africa.”
--Dr. Howard Zinn
"I welcome the action of the Trustees of Hampshire College in 
divesting from companies that directly profit from the Israeli 
occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip. This is a first step
 towards bringing real moral and material pressure to bear against an 
occupation that has gone on for over 41 years, and that must be ended
 if Palestinians and Israelis are to have peace."

Endorsements for Divesting from Israel:
“The Palestinian BDS National Committee, BNC, salutes Hampshire College for its historic decision to divest from companies implicated in Israel’s occupation and violation of international law. Your principled and courageous decision is the clearest indicator yet in the United States that a critical threshold has been crossed in undertaking effective, morally sound solidarity measures to further the cause of justice and peace in Palestine and the region.”

I see what these students have accomplished as a replica of the support of their College of our struggle against apartheid in South Africa. Hampshire College's decision to divest should be a guiding example to all institutions of higher learning."
--Archbishop Desmond Tutu
"Congratulations to the students of Hampshire College for your principled and thoughtful divestment decision. Economic sanctions are among the most potent tools in the arsenal of non-violent tactics.

And know that there are many who stand with you, and will soon be inspired to join you!"
--Naomi Klein, Journalist & Author
"I would like to express my strong support for the work of the Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), specifically their call for divestment from US corporations that are directly involved in Israel's criminal activities in the occupied territories. I would also like to commend the important educational and organizational efforts that laid the basis for the call. The SJP statement... is fully defensible in moral and legal terms. The organizers deserve congratulations and support for having once again led Hamphire College to spearhead opposition to major crimes, as it did 30 years ago in its opposition to South African apartheid, opening a path that others could follow. "

“To my knowledge It has never occurred in history before, that the
 Aggressor (Israel) been rewarded and the Victim (Palestinians) demonized 
and punished by the International Community. Why has this been allowed to 
happen? 

 The actions of the Students of Hampshire College by campaigning for
 divestment from financial ties with Israel is the first USA College to try to bring the truth to light and
 redress this injustice. I hope your Divestment Campaign will be taken up by other USA (and world) colleges, Universities
 and People, so that our voices United will break the siege of Gaza, end the occupation of Palestine, and 
give hope to Palestinians and Israelis who believe in human
 dignity, equality, and human rights for all. Well done to you all!”

CATERPILLAR (NYSE:CAT) supplies bulldozers to the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF). The IDF uses these to destroy Palestinian homes, orchards and olive groves in the Occupied
Territories. They are also used to clear Palestinian land for illegal Israeli settlements, segregated roads and the “Separation Barrier.” Despite years of corporate engagement by investors, Caterpillar is expanding its role in the occupation, recently announcing a joint venture with InRobTech to develop unmanned remote-controlled bulldozers for Israel.

ITT CORPORATION (NYSE:ITT) provides the Israeli Defense Forces with intensifier tubes for night vision goggles and has previously provided battlefield communication
radios. Night vision goggles are used by pilots, co-pilots and crews of fixed wing and rotary wing aircraft, especially helicopter crews. They enable Israel to attack refugee camps and villages in the middle of the night, the time when many of these raids and assaults take place. Battlefield communication radios allow the military to communicate with troops over a secure channel.

MOTOROLA (NYSE:MOT) is engaged in a 400 million NIS ($93 million) project to provide radar systems for enhancing security at illegal West Bank settlements deep inside
Palestinian territory. Motorola also has a $90-million contract to provide the Israeli army with an advanced "Mountain Rose" cell phone communications system. Its wholly owned subsidiary in Israel has a contract to develop encrypted wireless communications featuring vehicle mounted antenna that will enable military use in the occupied territories and other remote areas.

TEREX (NYSE:TEX) subsidiary American Truck Company (ATC) signed a $54 million agreement to supply 302 medium tactical trucks and associated logistical support to the Israeli
army. Terex also supplied TATRA trucks used by the Israeli army to mount artillery systems during the time it owned a controlling interest in that company. Terex owns Amida Industries, which manufactures mobile floodlight towers used by the Israeli Army in the Occupied Territories. It also owns Terex Demag Cranes that are leased in Israel through Riwal, the major crane supplier for Israel’s separation wall. Terex’s ATC still has a contract with the Israeli army for training, service and spare parts.

UNITED TECHNOLOGIES (NYSE:UTX) produces Blackhawk helicopters that are used by the Israeli military to attack Palestinian cities, refugee camps and villages. Many
civilians have been killed in these attacks. On February 1, 2001, United Technologies Sikorsky Division announced a $211.8 million contract with the Israeli Air Force. United Technologies Pratt and Whitney Division produces engines for Israel’s F-15 and F-16 aircraft, which are used against Palestinians. In 2005, Israel awarded Pratt and Whitney a contract worth up to $600 million for fleet management of these engines over the next 10 years.
