Does anyone have a reliable list of companies that boycott Israel?
I’ve been researching corporate social responsibility policies for a community discussion on ethical investing, and I came across debates on companies boycotting Israel. It made me curious—does a verified list of such companies even exist?

It’s important to be cautious here. Not everyone who disengages from parts of Israel is ‘boycotting’ the country. Take Ben & Jerry’s — they pulled operations from the West Bank, not Israel itself. That’s a political decision, sure, but calling that a boycott of Israel is misleading. There’s a difference between opposing policies and rejecting a nation’s existence.

I wouldn’t trust most of the lists floating around online. BDS has its agenda, and I don’t agree with it, but they do publish company names. That said, if a company really was boycotting Israel, they’d be risking business in dozens of U.S. states that have anti-boycott laws. Most big companies don’t want that heat.

People need to understand that these so-called boycott lists are often about companies reducing involvement in occupied territories, not boycotting Israel as a country. Human rights matter. But yeah, it’s hard to find an unbiased list because both sides spin it hard.
