One of the two main contractors for Israel’s ‘apartheid’ wall in the occupied West Bank, Elbit Systems, has won a $145 million contract from the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to provide similar systems on the Mexico-US border. The contract calls for “Integrated Fixed Tower systems” that will “assist Border Patrol agents in detecting, tracking, identifying and classifying items of interest” along the border. The program may eventually reach $1 billion.
Elbit Systems is one of Israel’s largest military company and the world’s largest drones producer. Elbit Systems markets its drones as ‘field tested’ – by which it means that their drones have been proven to be effective at killing Palestinians.
There is no harmony to be had in a world predicated on the exacerbation of dividing lines and antagonisms between humans in the interest of profit.
