The Nestle Corporation is involved with dirty deeds all across the planet.
We start with the Palestine – Israel connection; however,
the reasons we boycott are not limited to the issues in the Holy Land alone.

Nestle, Palestine,
and Israel
Nestle is the beneficiary of the ethnic cleansing of
Palestine, and has been praised for its support of Israel’s apartheid regime which
is documented at the link below, right under the heading “First on our
boycott list . . .” http://boycott4peace.blogspot.com/2014/11/apartheid-free-thanksgiving.html
Nestle is heavily
invested in Israel’s apartheid economy. A
very thorough analysis is available here:
Nestle’s
relationship with Osem Investments Ltd. is worth taking a closer look at. Osem is one of the largest food manufacturers
and distributors in Israel.
The group is majority owned (51%) by Nestlé. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osem_%28company%29
Nestle’s investment
in Osem and their history makes interesting reading: https://www.osem.co.il/en/company/history
As you read about
Nestle and Osem’s history, you will notice the mention of the factory at Sderot
in the year 1995. Sderot was built on
ethnically cleansed Palestinian land: http://www.ifamericansknew.org/history/sderot.html
In that same
history, in the year 2006 you will see the town, Yokneam, mentioned, which is
also spelled Yoqneam. This is the site
of another one of Nestle – Osem’s factories. The theft of land and the violent
removal of Palestinians from this area is documented on page 79 of ‘The Ethnic
Cleansing of Palestine,’ by Ilan Pappe. http://boycott4peace.blogspot.com/2014/12/ilan-pappes-ethnic-cleansing-of.html

More Reasons to Boycott
Nestle profits from child
and slave labor, water resource raiding, and formula marketing that kills
babies. Learn more under the heading, “Documentation
and More Information:” http://boycott4peace.blogspot.com/2015/03/BoycottCarnation.html
As if all the above
isn’t enough, you will find even more reasons to boycott at the link below. Be
sure to check out the comments section as well.
The section on Alternatives will please chocolate lovers. While it is focused on chocolate milk, you
will also find information on making your own chocolate candy—which is
amazingly quick and easy: http://boycott4peace.blogspot.com/2015/01/boycott-nesquik.html

Boycotting the large corporations isn't just better for Palestine and for Peace. It is better for workers and for economic systems all over the planet.
ReplyDelete" 'Workers are more productive. Their labor is creating record profits. But they’re not benefitting.' Who does benefit? In 2013, EPI.org reported that the average CEO made 295 times the average worker, although it’s unlikely that they did 295 times the work. In 1978, that figure was just 29.9."
Poverty is created by large predatory corporations!
