“This is clearly another sign of the importance for commercial actors not to have their brand associated to unethical behaviour, in the case of illegal settlements on occupied palestinian territory we can already see a trend of international companies who are moving out their operations from settlements”, says Joakim Wohlfeil, at the Swedish development organization Diakonia.

Please protest VEOLIA's involvement in building the "Jerusalem Rail Project" connecting the illegal Israeli settlements: the company even has an "ethics committee", here is the email address:

 ethique.ve@groupve.com

Let them know that supporting Israeli apartheid will cost them!
