Some people might not be aware that the many tentacled French corporation Veolia, which may supply you with water, or empty your dustbins, is the same Veolia that is currently building a light railway in the East Jerusalem region to connect illegal Israeli settlements built on occupied Palestinian land.
You can see a video here.
Can Veolia's transit system fairly be called apartheid trams? Yes. The people who live in the settlements are racists, who have no intention of allowing arabs to live beside them, except perhaps as roadsweepers.
The building of a permanent transport system between the settlements will further consolidate the ethnic cleansing of East Jerusalem, making any peace solution based on the 1967 borders & a shared capital almost impossible.
I checked & found that my Local Authority contracts Veolia Environmental Services , & enquiring emails will be sent to my local councillors, (all Green, as it happens.) Why not do the same?
