Le samedi 15 avril, dans le cadre de la Journée internationale de solidarité avec les prisonniers palestiniens, des dizaines de militants des BDS se sont rassemblés devant les magasins «FNAC» de plusieurs grandes villes de France pour demander à la FNAC de se conformer à son propre code de déontologie cessant de proposer à la vente des produits HP tant que HP est impliqué dans les violations des droits humains d’Israël.
À Paris, dans une action non violente et symbolique, ces militant-e-s étaient devant la FNAC avec pour sensibiliser au sort de plus de 6500 prisonniers politiques palestiniens actuellement incarcérés par Israël.
Comme à Lyon, ils ont informé les passants de l’implication directe d’Hewlett-Packard Enterprise dans le régime pénitentiaire israélien. HP-E maintient les serveurs du Service pénitentiaire d’Israël et d’autres infrastructures informatiques et fournit une formation à son personnel.

Les manifestants ont finalement pu rencontrer le responsable du magasin qui s’est engagé à transmettre leurs demandes à ses supérieurs. En novembre dernier, la même lettre a été envoyée au directeur général de la FNAC et à son comité d’éthique. Les deux lettres n’ont pas reçu encore de réponses.
Les militant-e-s de la Campagne sont déterminés à poursuivre cette campagne jusqu’à ce que qu’HP respecte le droit international.
Des actions similaires ont déjà été annoncées cette semaine à Strasbourg et à Montpellier, tandis que plus de 1500 prisonniers palestiniens ont commencé une grève de la faim illimitée.

FRANCE : Week of actions in several big cities in solidarity with Palestinian prisoners and for the boycott of HP
On Saturday April 15, as part of the International Day of solidarity with Palestinian prisoners, dozens of BDS activists gathered in front of the ‘FNAC’ stores in several big cities of France to demand that the retailer comply with its own Code of Ethics by refusing HP products as long as HP is involved in Israel’s human rights violations.
In Paris, in a non-violent and symbolic action, they gathered in front of the store with fences to raise awareness about the fate of more than 6500 Palestinian political prisoners currently incarcerated by Israel.

Like in Lyon, they informed passers-by of Hewlett-Packard Enterprise’s direct involvement in Israel’s prison regime. HP-E maintains Israel Prison Service’s servers and other IT infrastructure and provides training for its personnel.

Protestors could finally deliver their demands to the store manager who committed to forward it to their superiors. Last November, the same letter was sent to FNAC’s General manager as well as its Ethics committee. Both letters went unanswered.
Despite police intervention and warnings against further actions, the activists declared their determination to continue until their demands are satisfied. Similar actions are already announced this week in Strasbourg and Montpellier while more than 1500 Palestinian prisoners started an unlimited hunger strike.
