Aiding Israel’s genocide has been ‘reputationally damaging’, admits US consultancy BCG (www.middleeastmonitor.com)

Two top executives at Boston Consulting Group (BCG), one of the world’s most powerful management consultancies, have been stripped of their leadership roles following revelations that the company helped model the forced displacement of Palestinians from Gaza, a scheme widely condemned as a blueprint for ethnic cleansing.

Internal emails and planning documents obtained by The Financial Times (FT) show that BCG staff helped estimate the cost of forcibly relocating Palestinians from Gaza, a project supported by Israeli and US figures and carried out under the guise of humanitarian reconstruction. BCG also played a larger role than previously admitted in the formation of the controversial Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), a new aid body intended to replace UN-administered support and seen by many as a tool to sideline international law and institutions.

My company actually hired a lot of their contractors a while back and a bunch of them came in and took over high roles in the company. Some of them did seem pretty heartless. It's crazy to hear all this and think that the people I worked with could have helped with any of that
