For example Ceradyne, a wholly-owned subsidiary of 3M, is the sole provider of ceramic aircraft armor for military aircraft used by the Israeli Air Force. This includes Apache helicopters that have been used by Israel for attacks on urban Palestinian areas and “targeted assassinations” in violation of human rights.

Sabra Hummus and Guacamole

The Israeli military is the primary Israeli authority that administers the brutal military occupation of the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and Gaza. The company has boasted that it has “adopted” the Golani Brigade, which has a reputation for human rights violations such as home invasions, arbitrary detentions, and physical abuse of Palestinians in Hebron, as well as playing a major role in Israel’s continuing assaults on Gaza.
SodaStream
SodaStream manufactures its home carbonation products in a factory in the Naqab, which was established with support from Israel as part of an industrialization project that divorces its Palestinian Bedouin citizens from their historic land and traditional agricultural livelihoods. Over decades Israel has forcibly displaced tens of of thousands of Bedouins from their lands and restricted their access to water while settling in their place Jewish-Israelis and providing them with the infrastructure denied to Bedouin communities. SodaStream is complicit in these apartheid policies by profiting from this displacement as well as themselves engaging in unfair labor practices towards its Bedouin employees.
Cars
Several car manufacturing companies sell different types of equipment to Israel that it then uses to enforce its control over Palestinians in various ways. Israel uses Hyundai and Volvo construction equipment to demolish Palestinian homes and build instead Jewish-only settlements. Ford and General Motors vehicles are used by the Israeli military to patrol Palestinian areas under its military occupation.
