Dr. Bronner's: Where They Stand on Israel

In 2023, Dr. Bronner's CEO published a company blog post describing Israel as building "an apartheid state."

On the record

  • May 24, 2023 — David Bronner, CEO of Dr. Bronner's, published a post on the company blog titled "Israel is Building an Apartheid State on Palestinian Land: What We Must Understand and What We Can Do to Stop It." [Dr. Bronner's blog]

The context

For the full record: the same post states Bronner and his brother are "strong supporters of Israel's right to exist within its 1967 borders" and "strongly in favor of a two-state solution." We include that because accuracy is the point.

Where Galil stands

Our opinion: A sitting CEO put the words "Israel is building an apartheid state" on his company's blog — and in the same post claimed to support Israel. We think you can't have it both ways, and we think the contradiction tells you everything you need to know. That's our view. We don't stand with them.
