Barclays Bank is invested in Israeli apartheid and the Israeli genocide of the Palestinians.
Barclays owns shares worth over £1.3 billion in companies supplying Israel with weapons and military technology.
In addition to profiting from such arms sales Barclays provides these companies with over £4 billion worth of loans and other financial services.
These companies include:
Elbit Systems, Israel’s largest private arms company. Elbit Systems weaponry has been used extensively in the bombardments of Gaza.
Raytheon is financed by Barclays.
Raytheon produces bunker buster bombs, used by Israel to target Palestinian homes in repeated bombardments of the Gaza Strip, as well as Paveway guided missiles.
Caterpillar supplies the Israeli military with D9 bulldozers, used to demolish Palestinian homes, schools, villages, and civilian infrastructure, including sewage and water pipes. D9 bulldozers are used in the construction of illegal Israeli settlements on occupied Palestinian land.
In the 1970s and 1980s Barclays shamefully profited from the crime of apartheid in South Africa. It continues to do so through its investments in companies facilitating Israel’s discriminatory apartheid regime against Palestinians. Barclays ended its financial support for apartheid thanks to the tireless efforts of UK activists and campaigners standing in solidarity with South Africans.
