Basically this, but also because often Elbit is leasing the properties for their factories without giving a full accounting of what they produce and for who. So the ‘victim’ in a lot of these cases is a third party property company who, when attention is brought onto the issue at trial, don’t want the potential legal liability or just getting tied up in investigations over war crimes / genocide. So they’d rather treat it as though this is an issue caused by a ‘bad tenant’ (Elbit etc) and deal with it by cancelling Elbit’s lease. This is why so many actions have permanently shut down Elbit sites; because they lose the lease and other property companies are less and less likely to lease to them as they don’t want the trouble either.
Oh god, please don’t let these get popular again. I thought we were done with this gimmick like a decade or more ago.
