  • NYC relationship to that local business is not about the land. It’s that NYC subsidizes this business, despite what they are doing.

    Brooklyn Navy Yard, which is an ‘industrial yard’, leases property to businesses. But they are also a contractor for ICE, BPD, and the so-called IDF. So, from the point of view of those three war & terror machines, what’s the point of contracting an industrial park that leases properties? At least one of them is that it gives them a location for their military suppliers to do their work.

    From their website’s About page

    The Brooklyn Navy Yard (the Yard) is a mission-driven industrial park that is a nationally acclaimed model of the viability and positive impact of modern, urban industrial development. The Yard is home to 550+ businesses employing more than 11,000 people and generating over $2.5 billion per year in economic impact for the city.

    Two of the businesses they lease property to, as per the article:

    Crye Precision

    Crye Precision, designs and manufactures “combat proven” tactical gear and clothing for military applications

    Drop Site previously reported that Crye Precision has produced camouflage gear for the Israeli Defense Forces.

    Easy Arial

    Easy Aerial, another military contractor that provides drones to the Israeli military and DHS.

    Earlier this month, the Navy Yard’s board met some of the activists’ demands and declined to renew the lease of Easy Aerial.
