🧵Your money. Their crimes: UN Special Rapporteur @FranceskAlbs exposes how global giants, from weapons manufacturers to tech titans and tourist platforms, are profiting from a billion-dollar industry fueling Israel’s genocide in Gaza
A thread ⤵️
A report by United Nations Special Rapporteur @FranceskAlbs exposed a billion-dollar global profit machine behind Israel’s genocide and other crimes, revealing how arms dealers, tech giants, bulldozer firms, and banks all cash in on apartheid, land theft, and mass killing.
Albanese’s UN report indicts @LockheedMartin, @ElbitSystemsLtd, @Leonardo_live, and others for fueling Gaza’s apocalypse, their F-35s, drones, and 85,000 tons of bombs, six times Hiroshima’s wrath, devastating 179,411 Palestinian lives in a “live weapons lab” to profit from genocide’s machinery.
No less dangerous than lethal weapons, the digital arsenal exposed in Albanese’s report includes @PalantirTech, @Google, @amazon, @Microsoft and @IBM, whose AI selects targets, cloud systems store data, and surveillance tracks Palestinians, unleashing Israel’s apartheid into a genocidal blaze
Albanese’s report dives deep into infrastructure: @CaterpillarInc, @HDHyundaiCEE, @VolvoCarUSA, @mekorot_il, Tnuva, @bookingcom, @Airbnb, and @Maersk forge the settler colonial skeleton, demolishing homes, displacing Palestinians, stealing resources, raising colonies, trading goods, and luring tourists
Albanese’s report exposes @BNPParibas, @BlackRock, @Vanguard_Group, @Allianz, TUM, @MIT, and @HorizonEU as key financiers backing colonial assets, insuring occupation, shaping narratives, erasing Palestinian history, and justifying assaults through research and capital
Albanese’s report unmasks 48+ corporations spanning 8 sectors, including arms, tech, construction, extractive, banking, insurance, academia, ag/tourism, reaping profits from Palestinian suffering, forging stolen wealth into riches, while admitting findings scratch a vaster crisis and untold billions
Albanese’s report demands:
1️⃣Arms ban
2️⃣Sanctions
3️⃣Asset freezes on involved corps and individuals
4️⃣Trials
5️⃣Tade halt
6️⃣Reparations
Probes into Israel’s crime profiteers
All—states, institutions, corps—must fulfill their legal and moral duty; no failure spares the rest!
Beyond failed states and global bodies, Albanese trusts you, ordinary people, to act where governments fail: boycott Caterpillar, join BDS, divest Vanguard, push lawmakers for sanctions, demand justice for Palestinians, every penny counts, start now!
