UN adds 61 companies to ‘settler blacklist’

The United Nations human rights office has expanded its controversial database of companies operating in Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria, adding 61 firms to the list, Reuters reported Friday.

The database, first released in 2020, now contains 214 companies. Most are Israeli, while firms from 10 other countries are also included, among them France, Germany, China and the United States. The list was condemned by the US during the first Trump administration.

Among the companies newly included are Israeli pesticide manufacturer ADAMA, which is owned by China’s Syngenta Group, Israeli real estate investment company Alony Hetz and Spain-based Salvat Logistica. They join businesses already on the database, including travel company Expedia and home-rental platform Airbnb.

Israel rejected the latest additions. In a statement issued Friday, it said, “This is a distorted mechanism - created by a deeply flawed body with an automatic majority against Israel."

The UN rights office said it examined companies involved in sectors including energy, food, hospitality, transportation and agriculture. Its assessments were based on confidential information submitted to the office.

All the more reason to make a point of patronizing those companies.

These companies, in normal times, probably employ a good number of "Palestinians". Virtue signaling marches on.

I await the UN being assigned to the ‘target list’. I will then volunteer to retrain in an appropriate attack aircraft.
(It must be in session - thereby adding to the motivation.)

“Israeli pesticide manufacturer ADAMA, which is owned by China's Syngenta Group…”

Funny how an organization that probably wouldn’t even exist had the Nazis not tried to exterminate the Jews now seems hell-bent on finishing the job.

Judea, controversial

For those of you in Rio Linda, it is pronounced

JEW-DAY-UH

"Controversial" for Jews in JEW-DAY-UH to work, and probably employing a lot of Arabs (some people call the Arabs Palestinians).

Can someone post the list? I might need something they sell.

One is left imaging a squadron of A-10s taking potshots at a newly-abandoned UN HQ building (thus saving US taxpayer controlled demolition costs).

I think of the “settlers” as the Arabs who came into the area in the seventh century, conquered the people there, and then settled in.

Here’s a link to it. They make it hard to cut and paste.

I don’t agree that the Arabs presently living in Israel are descended from the same Arabs who came into the area in the seventh century. Transient population, centuries of turmoil.
