UPDATE: On December 23, the Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported that the Norway’s Sovereign Wealth Fund (Oil Fund), decided to end its investments in firms tied to Israel's illegal settlement enterprise in the OPT.
Now we know that the Haaretz report is based on fake news. Norges Bank, which manages the Oil Fund, has denied reaching any such decision to divest.

Palestinians appreciate ongoing efforts by Norwegian civil society, particularly trade unions, to pressure Norway's sovereign fund to divest from ALL companies involved in Israel's regime of apartheid and occupation. #DismantleApartheid

Read more: loom.ly/RgIBHqE Image
Greenwashing exacerbates the climate emergency as well as social and ecological injustices. Israel uses greenwashing to promote a climate-friendly image to cover up its decades-old regime of military occupation, settler-colonialism and apartheid.

#GreenwashingApartheid Image
Aside from apartheid Israel's regime of violent ethnic cleansing of Indigenous Palestinians and destruction of lives and livelihoods, Israel has also systematically devastated the fauna and flora of historical Palestine.

Yesterday marked the 105th anniversary of the #BalfourDeclaration, a fateful, colonial statement by the British government that paved the way for establishing a Jewish supremacist settler-colony in Palestine. Image
The Balfour Declaration laid the foundation for the 1948 #Nakba, the #EthnicCleansing of between 750,000 and 1,000,000 Indigenous Palestinians at the hands of Zionist militias, and subsequently Israeli forces. Image
The ongoing Palestinian Nakba entails Israel’s relentless land theft, denial of human rights & legalized racial discrimination, made possible by massive military, economic & political support from the U.S., EU, U.K. & other complicit states, international orgs & corporations. Image
