Research in Palestine – 2013

The Corporate Occupation research team returned from Palestine in late February 2013. We gathered a large amount of new information which we will be disseminating over the coming months. This information will initially be in the form of photos, videos, articles and short reports. Later on we will compile some of it into longer reports and factsheets.

Our research is intended to serve as a resource for the international movement for Boycott Divestment and Sanctions against Israeli apartheid, colonisation and occupation. Please contact us if you can think of any info that might be useful to your campaign. We are happy to come and speak to campaigners in workshops or public meetings too.

  1. Let’s face up to the facts – you would be happy if Israel didn’t exist. You believe everything you are told by every Palestinian and are so bigotted and blind any comments are distorted to fit your own agenda.

    How about looking up the definition of the word apartheid? You obviously don’t know what it means. Even South Africans are appalled by the use of such a word in the context of Israel.

      We report the facts of the situation. Our research is intended to support the Palestinian call for a campaign of boycott, divestment and sanctions against Israeli apartheid, occupation and militarism.

      Our work is not motivated by affirming the right of any state to exist or otherwise, but in solidarity with the struggle of oppressed people to gain equality and freedom.

      In terms of the use of the word apartheid, this is not a direct comparison with the former South African system of apartheid, although there are many similarities, but a description of a system of discrimination based on race. Apartheid is, in our view, an accurate description of the policies of the state of Israel against Palestinians.
