Norway fund blacklists Israeli firms with settlement ties

Norway's huge sovereign wealth fund, the world's largest, blacklisted two Israeli companies involved in construction of settlements in East Jerusalem, the country's finance ministry said Thursday.

The ban on investing in the firms revived a three-year prohibition on them that the Government Pension Fund of Norway had dropped in August last year.

The companies are Africa Israel Investments, an Israeli real estate developer, and its construction subsidiary Danya Cerbus.

.................................

As well as resuming the Israeli firm blacklisting, Norway suspended a restriction on the fund buying bonds issued in Myanmar, leaving only North Korea, Iran and Syria on the list of countries ineligible for investment

They can't bring up Scarlett Johansson in any way.

I do find it hopeful that some European organizations have woken up and are telling Israel "No More!"

Perhaps the Israelis better rethink apartheid and beat a hasty exit from the West Bank or wake up one morning with a true boycott nipping at their heels.

want to know why no one (besides me )bothers 'arguing ' with you?

Theres no point in arguing with extremists here or any ultra right wing forums.

When someone is obsessed with "apartheid picnic' 'oppressors are oppressing (code for Jews have become nazis) and other hyperbole....

It just aint worth taking serious and aint worth any effort.

In another post I had to defend Jewish thought and Identity to you (being obsessed does not make one an expert, only extreme right wing haters think that way)


I am about to give up with you and another self described antiZionist(code again) Zeaolot here too.
And then there will be none.

You really don't see the irony in that, now do you...King?

"I am about to give up with you..."

The obsessed never give up...King.


They just keep coming back with another angle of whining about being a victim.


(When last did Oberliner reply to your ridiculous extremist posts?)


Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.


I'm not here to argue with you et al. No, my poor dear.

I'm here to expose you...along with the Israeli apartheid state that our Government tacitly supports.

Oh, wait. They deleted the post. Smart move.
