Does anyone care about Palestinian jobs?
The governments banning products from Judea and Samaria are harming those they claim to help.
Several Western governments, including Britain, France, and Canada, are implementing or moving to implement bans on goods produced in Judea and Samaria. The article argues that these bans, while intended to pressure Israel, will primarily harm thousands of Palestinian workers who are employed by businesses in these areas and often earn significantly more than other available jobs. Israeli President Isaac Herzog stated that "this ban will land hardest on Palestinians." The author criticizes these governments for not offering alternative employment or compensation to the affected Palestinian workers, contrasting their actions with the Abraham Accords' focus on Arab-Israeli commerce. The article also highlights potential economic repercussions for the banning countries, noting that U.S. states with anti-boycott laws may impose sanctions on companies complying with such bans.
