At a Congressional hearing on the BDS movement (Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions), CEO of SodaStream Daniel Birnbaum gave gripping testimony that left no question about the impact of the movement on the people and businesses in Israel and the West Bank.
Legal Insurrection collected and posted video Wednesday of Birnbaum's powerful testimony.
"The BDS are in the business of manipulation, violence, and destruction," says Birnbaum, as he gives a laundry list of heinous activity taken against the company for the crime of operating an open business with fair treatment of all workers from any background.
"BDS tactics include intimidating, harassing, and threatening of our retail partners around the world. BDS activities have been vandalizing our products in stores, stickering them with hate images, throwing product on the floor, stickering, picketing, chaining themselves to the entrances to the stores, conducting violent demonstrations and flash mob events, circulating pamphlets and utilising social media to spread vile videos on YouTube, mobilizing mainstream media .. all to manimpulate our retailers to drop our product."
Legal Insurrection has more details on exactly what the consequences have been for the company:

I love NAOT shoes...Israeli made!
That means our Congress will be all for the BDS movement.
wow. They can have my Sodastream when they pry it out of my cold dead hands. And then they’ll have to go through my husband. (I’ve actually used *fresh* soda water as a carpet rescue right then. Not after I got dressed, went to the store & bought some).
Shoes, bed linens, lingerie, jewelry…what else? Cosmetics...
