Elbit Systems and Israel Aerospace Industries, major companies assisting IDF counter-terrorist operations, recently decided to pull out of a major aerospace industry convention in Toulouse, France. The move came in response to numerous anti-Israel protests by BDS activists outside the convention center.

The pro-Palestinian demonstrators claim that the companies provide the IDF with tools for building Israel’s “apartheid wall,” as well as aerial drones used for “massacring Palestinian civilians.” The organizers plan on continuing their targeting of the Israeli defense industry.
