BDS Destroys Livelihoods of 500 West Bank Palestinians
(Times of Israel) David Horovitz - Two years ago, SodaStream's plant at the West Bank industrial zone of Mishor Adumim employed 350 Israeli Jews, 450 Israeli Arabs and 500 West Bank Palestinians. Under pressure from anti-Israel boycott groups, SodaStream moved its Mishor Adumim plant last October to the Bedouin town of Rahat in southern Israel. On Monday, SodaStream reluctantly announced that it was laying off its last 75 Palestinian workers. Hundreds of Palestinians who had been treated equitably by a fair-minded, decent Israeli firm are now out of work.
