Israel Discount Bank updated its credit policy and said it would not lend money to groups that discriminate against customers
Several leading Israeli businesses pledged on Monday to strengthen their internal anti-discrimination rules following remarks by hard-right members of Israel’s incoming government seen as undermining gender equality and minority rights.
Leading hospitals and healthcare providers, apparently in response, put out a video declaring: “We treat everyone.” “Recent calls for revoking basic rights heard in the political arena in Israel are of grave concern to our society,” Wiz said in a statement.“Israel is a democratic and moral country and it must remain so if it wants to stay alive,” Michal Braverman-Blumenstyk posted on LinkedIn. “A discourse that encourages racism and discrimination of any kind has no place in a proper society.”
