Members of Kibbutz Hanita near Israel’s northern border are demanding $11 million from Ballet Vision, the Chinese fund that controls 80% of the Hanita Lenses plant, accusing it of refusing to exercise an option to purchase the kibbutz’s remaining shares, according to a lawsuit filed in Tel Aviv District Court.
In a response letter attached to the lawsuit, the Chinese fund said that since the outbreak of the war in Israel, Beijing has classified Israel as a “high-risk area” and imposed a ban on any new Chinese investments in the country, making it impossible to carry out the option.
According to the lawsuit, in 2021 the kibbutz sold 74% of Hanita Lenses, which manufactures intraocular lenses for medical use, to Ballet Vision for $35 million. Of that sum, $25 million was paid to kibbutz members, with an additional $10 million injected into the company.
I’m not worried that you even understand what liberalism is, and I know for a fact you have no idea who I am other than my comment history. Yours, by the way, is not particularly impressive.
Who did you vote for in the last Canadian election?
And exactly what was the point of your insertion into this discussion?
What you talking about? You hint that you saw my comment history and how in the world you came to the conclusion that I’m Canadian?
Calling this “imperialist desires or a general desire to increase ones power, which are both arguably part of human nature” what is it: completely bullshit.
Buddy if you’re not Canadian, then why would I care what you think? Thankfully your politics will have little purchase here. I suspect you know very little about my country and I know that you know even less about me.
On the topic of discussion, you don’t understand my central claim and frankly I’m not sure it would benefit either of us to reach any mutual understanding anyway. To start with, you use terms like ‘fucking liberals’ that doesn’t really suggest an inclination to deep thought on the concept of what a liberal is unless it’s in a portmanteau with the word retard.
Au revoir my special friend.
Least racist Canadian
In the topic of China and imperialism vs anti-imperialism you starting talking about Canada like the only place that matter and I need to care about it? What?
You started this shit with the quote, which you clearly don’t know what militant is or you miss read it as MILITARY
And you try to wriggle your justification of equating imperialism vs anti imperialism and justifying it by it’s the human nature to want power, which is bullshit, the only thing that I saw philosophers and social scientist and behaviour studies say about human nature is the desire to have control of their own lives, nothing close or relate to power.
kys
If you’re not Canadian why would I care what you think or do, and why would I waste energy on a discussion that is personally insulting?
Oh yeah you’re a real decent human.
You’re the one that keeping replying bro.
That’s why I hate liberals they only care about their own personal freedoms and private property.
I’m only respond in the properly tone of your smugness debatelord.
And he’s still going
No u
Remember when you said you were done?
