Israeli Arms Cargo Faces A MAJOR French Stand-Off - And Then Another https://youtu.be/b2-uFAD2F4w
"Elbit Systems tried to send its latest batch of war toys from Paris Charles de Gaulle to Israel, but French airport workers apparently decided they’d rather not play accomplice to Gaza’s misery. Air France is busy pretending the booking never happened, El Al claims Elbit yanked the cargo themselves, and campaigners are off to court waving paperwork like it’s the Magna Carta. What started as a routine arms shipment has now turned into a farcical game of pass-the-parcel, only with bombs instead of birthday cake. So why did the workers suddenly grow a conscience over Gaza, and what exactly do France’s much-touted military export ‘assurances’ actually mean-besides ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’? I’ll dig into the legal wrangling, the PR tap-dancing, and why Elbit’s search for a friendly airline in France ended about as well as a Ryanair refund request."
