TopicIsrael upset by Ben & Jerry's decision to not renew sales license

https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israel-pm-warns-unilever-severe-consequences-ben-jerrys-decision-2021-07-20/

Israel warned consumer goods giant Unilever Plc (ULVR.L) on Tuesday of "severe consequences" from a decision by subsidiary Ben & Jerry's to stop selling ice cream in Israeli-occupied territories, and urged U.S. states to invoke anti-boycott laws.

Monday's announcement followed pro-Palestinian pressure on the Vermont-based company over its business in Israel and Jewish settlements in the West Bank, handled since 1987 through a licensee partner, Ben & Jerry's Israel.

Ben & Jerry's said it would not renew the licence when it expires at the end of next year. It said it would stay in Israel under a different arrangement, without sales in the West Bank, among areas where Palestinians seek statehood.

Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett's office said in a statement that he had complained to Unilever Chief Executive Alan Jope about the "glaring anti-Israel measure".

"From Israel's standpoint, this action has severe consequences, legal and otherwise, and it will move aggressively against any boycott measure targeting civilians," Bennett told Jope in a phone conversation, according to the premier's office.

Unilever did not immediately respond.

Most world powers deem Israel's settlements illegal. It disputes this, citing historical and security links to the land, and has moved to penalise anti-settlement measures under law.

Avi Zinger, CEO of Ben & Jerry's Israel, said he was unwilling to refuse to sell the ice cream to Israeli citizens in settlements and was legally prevented from doing so.

"So when they (Ben & Jerry's) realised that there is no way that I will stop it, they decided not to renew my contract," he told Reuters.

Gilad Erdan, Israel's ambassador to Washington, said he had raised the Ben & Jerry's decision in a letter to 35 U.S. governors whose states legislated against boycotting Israel.

"Rapid and determined action must be taken to counter such discriminatory and antisemitic actions," read the letter, tweeted by the envoy, which likened the case to Airbnb's 2018 announcement that it would delist settlement rental properties.

Airbnb reversed that decision in 2019 following legal challenges in the United States, but said it would donate profits from bookings in the settlements to humanitarian causes.

Palestinians welcomed the Ben & Jerry's announcement. They want the West Bank, East Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip for a future state. Israel deems all of Jerusalem its capital, a status not recognised internationally. Gaza is controlled by Hamas Islamists who refuse coexistence with Israel.

Orna Barbivai, Israel's economy minister, posted a video of herself throwing a tub of Ben & Jerry's into the trash. Ayman Odeh, an opposition lawmaker from Israel's Arab minority, tweeted an image of him smiling as he dug into his own tub.

TopicDOJ will not prosecute Trump officials over false testimony on census

https://www.govexec.com/management/2021/07/doj-will-not-prosecute-trump-officials-after-ig-referred-findings-false-testimony-census/183843/

The Biden administration has declined to prosecute former Trump administration officials, including former Commerce Department Secretary Wilbur Ross, after an inspector general confirmed they provided false testimony regarding the origins of the proposed citizenship question on the 2020 census.

The Commerce IG launched its probe in 2019, following a request from lawmakers. The investigators did not make their report public, citing Privacy Act concerns, but said in a letter to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Rep. Carolyn Maloney, D-N.Y., that Ross and other officials played a substantive role in proposing the addition of the citizenship question to the census. The proposal caused significant controversy as critics said it would deter non-citizens from participating in the count at all and it was eventually struck down by the Supreme Court.

Ross twice told Congress the addition of the citizenship question was based solely on a request from the Justice Department, but the IG found Ross misrepresented the full rationale behind the decision. Its findings follow publicly disclosed emails that clearly demonstrated the role Ross, the White House and other Commerce officials played well before Justice became involved. The Supreme Court noted the political influence when ordering the removal of the question.

Evidence shows there were significant communications related to the citizenship question among the then-Secretary, his staff, and other government officials between March 2017 and September 2017, which was well before the DOJ request memorandum, the IG said. Evidence also suggests the department requested and played a part in drafting the DOJ memorandum.

The IG said it presented its findings to Justices Public Integrity Section of the departments Criminal Division, but the department declined to pursue prosecution. Under the Trump administration, Justice similarly declined to prosecute Ross and others after Democrats voted to hold them in contempt for refusing to turn over documents related to citizenship question decision making.

Justice did not respond to an inquiry into why it declined prosecution.

Bidens pick to lead the Census Bureau, Robert Santos, said at a confirmation hearing Thursday the political meddling by the Trump administration in the work of career employees had tanked morale at the agency. He pledged to empower and entrust those workers to do their jobs and to find new ways to reward them for their work, through bonuses, telework and new research opportunities. Ross and other Trump administration officials also faced criticism during last years decennial count for seeking to wrap up the process early despite delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

I haven't seen the movie, but I assume the after credits scene is Lex Luthor standing in front of a movie screen and saying, "And that's exactly how it happened, ladies and gentlemen."

There's no after-credits scene.

There's just a montage before the credits roll with Michael Rooker playing an Alex Jones-like character that reveals the existence of an evil Wonder Woman and evil Aquaman in the universe.

And he was Warned partway through it. People kept it from purging and then he kept going and nothing happened to him again. Even after he made multiple provably false claims that he was trying to pass off as fact that he knew weren't in fact true.

At this point I think it's fair to assume the Mods won't touch covid disinfo because they've partaken in it themselves.

I have them tagged as "defends internment camps"

Yeah I've had him tagged as that from an old topic about how Sweden (I believe) has laws on the books that allow for reduced sentences for men and women convicted of domestic violence if it was committed as a result of the person finding out their partner is cheating on them, designating it as a "crime of passion". IIRC the actual point of the article was that the law has far more negative impacts on women than on men, because not only are they more likely to be the victim in a dv situation but because dv committed by men on women is typically far more severe than women on men or women on women, so the men were typically ending up with reduced sentences for far more severe crimes.

Dude vehemently argued the law was a good thing and that he'd do it himself if it came down to it.

I would suppose it's because they find the shocks to be more effective than other methods to dissuade the mentally disabled child from more harmful or unacceptable / less desirable behavior, than other means.

And preferable to letting the behavior continue unabated.
