Hewlett Packard designs technologies to support racist policies in Israel and the US.
• HPE makes the biometric ID system used at checkpoints to restrict Palestinian movement on their
own land as well as their access to employment, medical care, and schools while Israelis are able to
travel freely.
• HPE provides the IT infrastructure used by the Israeli Navy to enforce its deadly decade long
blockade of Gaza and exacerbate a humanitarian crisis.
• HPE sells technology services to illegal settlements that perpetuate and expand the ongoing theft
of Palestinian land.
• HPE profits from contracts with US prisons and the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)
whose policies disproportionately target communities of color.
