The weapons were purchased before any ICJ rulings or UN decisions had been made against Isreal. I’m a huge proponent of divesting entirely and I strongly believe that going forward the world needs to isolate Isreal the way we did apartheid South Africa, but I’m not sure how the CAF was supposed to respect rulings of international courts that hadn’t yet been made or even considered when these purchasing decisions were made. The case hadn’t even been brought before the ICJ when we inked the deal.
