Coca-Cola has removed all references to its financial support of Black Lives Matter from its website, after the controversial group expressed its support of the Hamas terrorists who killed 1,400 Israelis on Oct. 7, 2023, the New York Post reports.

BLM’s Chicago chapter posted on X a photo of paraglider with the text, “I stand with Palestine.” The group has since removed the post. Hamas terrorists penetrated the Israel-Gaza border on paragliders.

BLM Chicago issued a statement on Oct. 11 in response to backlash over its post, which reiterated its support for Palestine: “Yesterday we sent out mss [messages] that we aren’t proud of. We stand with Palestine & the people who will do what they must to live free. Our hearts are with, the grieving mothers, those rescuing babies from rubble, who are in danger of being wiped out completely.”

In another BLM Chicago post, a cartoon, the caption blaming Israel for the bloodshed of Oct. 7 read, “This isn’t about Hamas — this is about Palestinians’ right to resist 75 years of Israeli settlers colonizing their native land.”

On his podcast, Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, blasted Coca-Cola, and on X, the senator posted, “On Verdict, we name names and blast corporate America for standing with Marxists who celebrated Hamas’s mass murder of Israelis.”

Also blasting BLM Chicago was GOP commentator and former congressional candidate Robby Starbuck, who wrote on X, “BLM Chicago, like many leftists, comes out in support of slaughtering innocent people they don’t like.”

Former speechwriter and author Aviva Klompas also commented on BLM Chicago’s offensive X messages, tweeting: “Unapologetically standing with butcherers and rapists.”

Sprite, one of Coca-Cola’s brands, gave $500,000 to the Black Lives Global Network in its “fight for racial justice.” Coca-Cola is not the only Fortune 500 company to donate to Black Lives Matter after the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis in May 2020. Amazon, DoorCash, DropBox, Microsoft and Warner Brothers have also made considerable donations.
