Accidentally supporting Israel

One of the biggest confusions facing the world is the International Corporation set up. Very few businesses are now private owned, I doubt if any international ones are. Because they are corporations they do sell stock. The stock holders are part owners of the company. One of the major businesses in Israel is Investment Brokerage. Today it is safe to assume that the Israeli Investment houses have bought into every business that deals on a global basis. Unless a company is private owned, uses only local labor and local materials and only sells on the local market, it is supporting Israel. Virtually every product now sold in the world can be considered an Israeli product as an Israeli brokerage house will own stock in it.

One of the biggest ironies was the 6 day war. the Egyptian Army used Hakim rifles The Hakim rifles and the ammunition for them were made in Israeli owned factories. Every bullet shot at the Israelis, made money for Israeli investors.

I hope this helps. The food products are expensive but you know that they are helping our brothers and sisters in Palestine.

Ironically Palestinian products help support Israel. Israel does not recognize Palestine as being a country. For taxation the Palestine Districts (Weat Bank and Gaza) are seen as Districts of Israel and taxed as such. Every thing coming out of Palestine is considered to be an Israeli product.

Palestinian Authority (West Bank/Gaza)

Trade Regulations and Standards

Import and export procedures for WB/G remain tied in large part to Israeli regulations. Ostensibly, the PA has primary control over imports into WB/G, with Israel retaining quantitative control over some imports in key industries such as dairy products. Most WB/G-bound products pass through Israeli ports and so are subject to Israeli customs and security inspection. U.S. companies should work with Palestinian agents and/or the U.S. Embassy in Tel Aviv and U.S. Consulate General in Jerusalem to determine specific import and export requirements for their goods. Due to the current unrest in the area, transporting goods from Israeli ports to PA areas has been extremely difficult because of the tight blockade imposed by Israel. Exporters should be aware that delays are inevitable and should work out this problem with their customers before shipments are made.

But at least the Palestinian workers and farmers will get a bit more profit when sold through PFTA
