Drop the Maryland Israel Development Center
The Maryland Israel Development Center (MIDC) serves as the broker to bring Israeli companies into Maryland. Most of these companies are weapons manufacturers and, in two instances, are actually the Israel military itself. The State of Maryland as well as counties - most specifically Montgomery - provide the MIDC with grants and special privileges (e.g., ribbon-cutting ceremonies, additional grants, etc.). Once in our State, these “merchants of death” use their offices as a launch pad for Pentagon contracts and merging with other war profiteers.
Join our campaign to end telling elected officials to end funding to the MIDC.
