View summary
The raport focuses attention to the role of corporations in sustaining and profiting from Israel’s settler-colonial project in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT) and its ongoing genocidal campaign in Gaza.
The economy of settler-colonial occupation and the economy of genocide are deeply entwined.
The report documents the critical role that corporations have played in driving Israel’s settler-colonial erasure of the Palestinian people from their land, contributing to a process of displacement and replacement and profiting from decades of human rights violations and international crimes.
In this “displacement-replacement economy of occupation,” the same
corporations that facilitate the destruction of Palestinian land and infrastructure are involved in building and profiting from the colonial agricultural, infrastructure and enterprises that replace it.
