SodaStream article

Dear Friends

See an article about SodaStream in the SF Chronicle today - long review, all pure publicity, no mention of the fact that all these devices are made in an illegal Israeli settlement:\

SodaStream is an Israeli company, whose main production site is in Mishor Edomim, a settlement industrial zone in the occupied West Bank, on confiscated Palestinian land, using exploited Palestinian labor. To read more about SodaStream's involvement in the occupation: http://www.whoprofits.org/Newsletter.php?nlid=74

During the last two years, SodaStream has expanded int business into the US, went out on NASDAQ, and started an aggressive marketing campaign in partnership with its US distributors, including Bed Bath and Beyond and Macy's. In a recent interview, the company's CEO has claimed that the company enjoys unprecedented growth, and that it does not expect any problems in the US (such as the boycotts that it had been encountering in Europe), which is the company's main expansion market.

Please send responses to the newspaper and to its website, and send around this request.

Thanks!
