While I’m generally skeptical of boycotts, BDS scares the shit out of Israel. Because I do believe if BDS becomes a global movement it really could change things. I’ll start with the list from bdsmovement.net and then add to the list as people list other companies to boycott in the comments:

Hewlett-Packard (computer hardware)

Siemens (tech conglomerate)

AXA (banking & insurance)

Puma (clothing)

Israeli fruits and vegetables (usually labeled)

SodaStream (idk that garbage home soda)

Ahava (cosmetics)

Sabra (hummus)

pretty obscure but CompuLabs, a manufacturer of industrial/embedded PCs and modules. (One of which is in the Perseverance mars rover...)

They're based in Yokneam, IL. Per wikipedia:

Yokneam was built on the lands of a Palestinian Arab village named Qira, depopulated in the lead up to the 1948 Arab–Israeli war.

I guess the village just did that. On its own.

IL

That’s it! Relocate the Israeli settlers to Illinois. They can even have the same address (abbreviation for Illinois is IL) but with a USA at the end. /s
