As an advocate for social justice, I am highly concerned about San Jose State University’s investment in Caterpillar Corporation, G4S, HP, and Motorola Solutions.

 

It’s time to take a stance against unethical investments!

What companies are we asking to divest from, and what are they doing?

 

G4S

Provides security services to businesses in the illegal Israeli settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. G4S has also provided full body scanners and luggage scanning equipment to various checkpoints throughout the Occupied Palestinian Territories. The checkpoints in Qalandia and Bethlehem help sustain the illegal Israeli Annexation of Jerusalem.

 

Hewlett-Packard

Owns EDS Israel; which is a company that provides the Israeli Ministry of Defense with the Basel System. “The Basel System is an automated biometric access control system which includes a permit system for Palestinian workers, with hand and facial recognition, installed in checkpoints in the Occupied West Bank”

 

Caterpillar

Responsible for supplying Israel with D9 bulldozers which are used, by the governing regime, to demolish Palestinian homes and violate human in rights in the Occupied Palestinian Territories.

 
Motorola Solutions
Services “MotoEagle Surveillance System” which is used by the governing regime to control Palestinian movement in vast “special security zones” which surround illegal Israeli settlements.
