Sachs Says Israel Economy Now Runs on Assassination and Surveillance Services Sales
Judging Freedom
Prof. Jeffrey Sachs : The Economic Consequences of Trump's War
What was said
"Israel is a military garrison state. And it is making money by selling its spy systems, selling its Mossad services, selling its assassination machine. The stock market of Israel is booming. Israeli military companies make money and give Israel influence in many parts of the world, precisely because lots of governments want to buy into assassination services or spying or surveillance activities."
Professor Sachs described Israel's economy as having transformed into a war machine focused on selling assassination services, surveillance systems, and Mossad intelligence operations to foreign governments. He stated Israel's stock market is booming from these activities despite hundreds of thousands fleeing the country. This represents a controversial characterization of a key U.S. ally's economic model.
