Boycott Veolia: Complicit in Israeli War Crimes - Dump Veolia Demo - London

Dump Veolia Demo - 23 Oct 2010, Natural History Museum London [inminds.com]:

"inminds | October 27, 2010

The Dump Veolia Campaign lead a demonstration outside the Natural History Museum on 23rd October 2010 to protest against Veolia's sponsorship of the Environment Wildlife Photographer of the Year Exhibition at the Natural History Museum.

Veolia still holds shares in the Jerusalem Light Railway project which the UN Human Rights Council has declared is a 'clear violation of international law', despite the recent announcement that it was selling its shares to Egged. The tram line runs across stolen Palestinian land connecting illegal Israel settlements and West Jerusalem thereby helping consolidating the occupation.

Veolia also runs bus services to the settlements on roads Palestinians are barred from using despite the fact that they are built on their land.

Veolia's shameful crimes in Palestine also include the Tovlan landfill site it operates in the occupied Jordan Valley where it helps Israel dump its toxic waste on to Palestinian land next to the Palestinian village of Abu Ajaj.

Veolia still has 20% shares in the Jerusalem Light Railway (despite recent announcement that it was selling 80% shares to Egged) and provides a bus services and landfill site servicing settlements.

"MrAlexSeymour | October 24, 2010

Veolia, sponsors of Israel's occupation and settlement policies on the West Bank, has also been allowed to sponsor the Wildlife photo exhibition at the Natural History Museum in London. This alternative photographic exhibition outside the museum and the accompanying leafleting is in protest at the British establishment's policy of turning a blind eye to the illegal and unethical collusion of our own and foreign corporations with the fascist regime in Tel Aviv. The pictures on display outside the NHM show just a few of the devastating results that Veolia's complicity in Zionist war crimes facilitates.
