Lidls owner Schwarz is heavily invested in an Israeli "cybersecurity" start-up run by a former Mossad director. As always with Israeli "cybersecurity" that embraces "former" ties to intelligence, you should expect ongoing ties to Israeli and US intelligence agencies.

These are the kind of people that helped get Trump elected.

One thing at a time. Lidl isn't necessarily in question here, it's the boycott intention. We do the same thing boycotting in Israeli products too.

You are pretending these people oppose genocide….the whole point of this is motivated by some weird racial purity concept
