Today's #BDSFail roundup

A semi-regular feature from Zvi:


Another list of reminders of how utterly and completely BDS Fails, featuring Nigeria, Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda, the People's Republic of China, Texas, Nevada, Ontario, Turkish companies, Samsung and OrCam.
And that is just this week.
The impact of even one of Israel's numerous IPOs vastly outweighs the impact of all of the idiotic food coop boycotts in the entire history of the BDS "movement."
Only 3 other countries in the middle east have such agreements with Nigeria.
The article is about Egypt trying to stop this, but also identifies Nigeria, Ethiopia and Kenya as enthusiastic promoters of Israel's bid. Israeli military sales to Ethiopia, Nigeria and Uganda are also mentioned.
Egypt's own membership in the AU was suspended due to the coup. Egyptian paranoia about Israeli influence in Africa is prompting Egypt to oppose Israel as an observer.
... starting with Mantis Vision Inc., which develops a 3-D scanner designed for mobile device installation.
Samsung is expanding its seed accelerator.
