Which is why, as I noted recently, munitions manufactories and their shareholders must be prosecuted along with all others who facilitated this barbarity in whatever capacity that they supported it, and/or repressed opposition to it.

Not one must be permitted to escape.

BDS to all companies who benefit from Genocide is a civil duty for everyone in this world where we, the people, are the main target (do you remember those times of the C19-Scamdemic?). Now the Palestinians (and lebanese, iranians and yemenites) are under the empire´s direct fire ... but we must remember that everyone who dare to be in the imperial path would have the same fate. These companies (and the undercover ones) are tools of the empire, arms, legs and so on, body-parts. We can contribute to the cause by cutting off their profiteering sources. Every cent less count for them. And to expose their moralless ambitions is important too.

I agree with what you wrote. I would like to make 1 small addition: during the planned Covid scamdemic, the Iranian government was in on the act too, forcing the Iranian people into lockdowns, social distancing, and all the rest of the depraved measures we were subjected to.

Covid was pretty much part of the imperial path, whereby the empire is not the U.S. but those behind the scenes who are working on establishing a so-called New World Order. I am not sure who "those" are, although perhaps the N should be replaced by a J?

"..Norway has been among the leading European states opposed to the Israeli genocide, becoming one of the first in Europe to recognise the Palestinian state, but it also appears to be dealing more in bombastic rhetoric than hurting the genocidaires financially. Norway’s sovereign wealth fund, the largest of its kind in the world, is knee-deep in the blood of Palestinian children. “Norwegian Government Pension Fund, claims it has the world’s most comprehensive ethical guidelines,” the report notes. “After October 2023, the Fund increased its investment in Israeli companies by 32 percent to $1.9 billion. By the end of 2024, the Fund had $121.5 billion — 6.9 percent of its total value — invested in companies named in the present report alone.”..."

Expect this to get WORSE: Norway's Finance minister since last year is none other than Jens Stoltenberg, the former NATO propagandist in chief, who claims that "war is peace" and who has never seen a weapons industry lobbyist that he doesnt love. At the moment he is insisting that Norway should not sell its ownership stakes in companies thare are known to be contributing to and profiting from the mass murder in Palestine.

Excellent article, excellent report.

1 thing we all have to understand: to "boycott these entities, refuse to give them our money and labour, and take all legal routes to hold them accountable for their complicity in crimes against humanity" is "anti-Semitic".

As of 7 Oct. 2023 genocide is cool again, and those who do not agree will get in trouble sooner or later: the ethical values that regular people have been brought up – excl. Jews, of course – have been turned upside down. Now, not supporting a genocide perpetrated by Jews is considered, at least in our beloved sanctimonious West, unethical and will therefore be dealt with as such.

Missing from this list - excavators made by Hyundai and sold to Israel with the company's full knowledge that they’re being used to demolish homes in West Bank and Gaza

Thank you for this very important article, keep your spirit up, the world is already awake and in the light of the Gaza Holocaust and of the Palestinian Genocide, the lies have no more a place to hide.

Every nation must recognize Palestine and enact the provisional measures instructed by the ICJ, and it must also demand israel to immediately stop its aggression and withdraw its forces immediately, or to be recognize for what it is, a rogue entity and have all its trade, agreement and, I Would add, have all of its assets confiscated as well as its embassies and consulates closed.

In fact I would take it even further and have the UNGA to vote on sending peacekeepers to defend the UN mission in Gaza and across Palestine and physically force the end of the Holocaust and hostilities, and, apply sanctions and suspend israel from the world trade till total compliance with the Courts orders.

The provisional measures which should have been enforced along time ago, must now be enforced.

Also, the EU must suspend every agreement and any presence of the Genocidal representatives and expel any member state which does not comply to the ICC or ICJ warrants and decisions.

Anyhow this is how I see it, the zionist monster has eaten his own baby “israel”, now all its left of it is “excrement”.

The weight of the lies is crashing them and the river of blood of the innocents they have spilled is drowning them.

Once again, thank you for sharing Palestine will be free.

Thanks for this insightful and informative piece that gets down into the weeds and helps to explain why the world stands by and allows this criminal genocide to continue.

Francesca Albanese’s 39-page report titled From Economy of Occupation to Economy of Genocide is jaw dropping.

Below is an excerpt from my post, We Are Not Animals, which draws from the works of Carl Jung, Sigmond Freud, Earnest Becker, and others. My piece explores violence and genocide from a historical perspective and offers some insights for reversing course.

I hope you and your readers find this useful.

🙏

----------------------------------------------------------

In his eye-opening book, The Palestine Laboratory: How Israel Exports the Technology of Occupation Around the World, Australian journalist Anthony Lowenstein, the grandson of Holocaust survivors and a onetime resident living in East Jerusalem, documents Israel’s meteoric rise as the world’s leading manufacturer of weapons and surveillance technology.

In the section of the book titled “Selling Weapons to Anyone Who Wants Them,” Lowenstein wrote:

“The history of Zionist militarism and the building of a viable, local defense sector began even before the establishment of Israel. The Jewish state and its backers quickly saw the potential of both developing weapons for their own benefits and then selling and promoting them to a global market. The Palestine laboratory was born. The birth of Israel in 1948 was a miracle for many Jews around the world but a catastrophe for the Palestinian population.”

Lowenstein’s statement echoes the 1986 article titled “How Israel’s Economy Got Hooked on Selling Arms Abroad,” written by Thomas Friedman, the New York Times bureau chief in Jerusalem between 1984 and 1988. In his piece, Friedman notes:

“Israel, with only 4 million people, has become one of the top ten arms exporters in the world and Israeli businessmen are among the world’s leading arms merchants.”

Hi Ngungu, I have created the list from the report. It's an original creation, you won't find it in the report.

The list of companies isnt actually important. Because it isn't comprehensive and you wont get the real picture from it.

The general principle of the west being complicit and financially embedded in 8 decades of Israeli occupation and disposession and mass murder are what is important and need to be reversed.

Yes, but we have to start someone and BDS is a very good beginning and makes us conscience of our choices on a daily basis.
