Honda’s case shows that for Japanese companies to cooperate with Israeli ones inevitably leads to the collaboration with the illegal apartheid policy of Israel. Last year, the Knesset, Israel's parliament, passed a law that bans companies from discriminating against settlers. Therefore, Japanese companies who do business in Israel could face the risk of being punished by Israeli law if they also attempt to abide by international law and avoid the provision of services or goods to illegal settlements.
