Coca Cola, operator of $20 million bottling plant in Gaza, silent on Israel attacks despite history of support for social justice
The Coca-Cola Company, headquartered in Atlanta, has been no stranger in recent years to taking up the mantle of social justice causes, as the company has issued a multitude of statements and has donated millions to social causes. However, the company has been noticeably silent in the wake of Hamas’ terrorist attack in Israel, which left more than 1400 dead, including at least 30 Americans, and the increased threats to Jewish communities here at home. Notably, the company entered into a partnership with Zahi Khouri, a Palestinian businessman with a history of antisemitic comments, to build a $20 million bottling plant in Gaza in 2016.
