Last week, Ben &
Jerry’s ice
cream company announced that it would no longer be selling its
products in the “Occupied Palestinian Territory”. Behind the move is one woman
who has a long history of being anti-Israel and even supporting anti-Semitism.
ANURADHA MITTAL: ANTI-JEWISH STATE
When Ben & Jerry’s board announced its intent
to stop selling its products in the “Occupied Palestinian Territory”, it
was quickly revealed that their initial intention was to boycott Israel
entirely. The board of B&J was stopped from doing so by its parent company,
Unilever, which has four factories
and 2,000 employees in Israel. This divergence was possible because when
co-founders Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield agreed to sell the business in 2000
to Unilever for $325 million, the purchase agreement allowed the company to
maintain control over its “social mission.”
It should be noted that the company’s eponymous founders,
Ben Cohen
and Jerry Greenfield, are both
Jewish and though they are stridently left-wing, it seems clear that the
impetus to target Israel came from B&J’s chairman of the
board, Anuradha Mittal.
The Washington Free Beacon published
an article revealing Mittal’s hatred of Israel in its entirety. After B&J’s
announcement, it was discovered that Mittal had at least 107 anti-Israel tweets, one of
which described the creation of Israel as a “catastrophe.” This echoes the
language of anti-Israel terrorist organizations which commemorate the anniversary
of the creation of Israel in 1948 as tne “Nakba” (catastrophe).
Last month, Mittal signed a petition to US
Secretary of State Blinken “demanding that he halt weapons
sales to Israel.”
She has also expressed strong support for the Boycott
Divestment Sanctions (BDS) movement and defended Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D., Minn.)
claim that pro-Israel members of Congress have an “allegiance” to a foreign
government.
“Omar’s remarks were denounced as anti-Semitic by members
of her own party and prompted the House to pass a resolution against hate and
intolerance,” the Beacon noted.
“Criticism of AIPAC is not anti-semitic & calling for
Congress not to have allegiances to foreign countries (Israel) is not
anti-semitic,” Mittal wrote in March
2019, “but targeting the first black Muslim member of Congress with false
accusations of antisemitism IS Islamophobic!”
OAKLAND INSTITUTE: PRO-BDS, ANTI-ISRAEL, ANTI-SEMITIC
Mittal founded the Oakland Institute in 2004. The
institute clearly reflects her concept that rejects the existence of any Jewish
state in the region and not just post-1967 borders. The institute’s website refers
to “ 70 years of occupation and displacement” while marking “100 years since
the Balfour Declaration, which laid the foundation for a Jewish homeland in
Palestine.” The website also makes the astounding statement that the
Palestinian movement has been a “nonviolent struggle.”
This blindness to extreme violence targeting Jewish
citizens of Israel was reflected in an article published
by the Oakland Institute during the Israel-Lebanon war in 2006 calling for
support of Hezbollah:
“You do not have to agree with all of Hezbollah’s ideas
to support their resistance to Israel. Condemning “both sides” in the Middle
East is just like condemning “both sides” in the American Civil War. During the
Civil War, with all its complications, one side fought for slavery and the
other fought for emancipation. Today in the Middle East, one side fights to rob
and pillage, the other seeks self-determination and dignity.”
The article compares Israel to an oppressive pro-slavery
government while entirely overlooking an Iranian-backed terrorist organization
with hundreds of thousands of missiles dedicated to a genocidal effort
targeting the Jews in Israel. The article claims that any objection to
Hezbollah is based in “Islamophobia”.
The Oakland Institute also published a series of reports
in 2017 accusing Israel of humanitarian crimes. The series included a lengthy
interview with Bassem Tamimi who has promoted claims
that Israel arrests Palestinian children in order to “steal their organs.”
B & J is deeply connected to the Oakland Institute
and in 2017, the Ben
and Jerry’s Foundation donated $80,000 to the organization. NGO Monitor documented
that under Mittal’s leadership, the institute has partnered with “radical NGOs that support BDS,
including BADIL, ICAHD, Youth
Against Settlements, and Hebron Rehabilitation Committee,” all of which
advocate for BDS.
BADIL has been accused of having ties to terrorist organizations and promoting blatant anti-Semitism.
