I got two responses:
1) from Mohamed: "In
response to the post by your reader Stephen in which he claims that Al Akhbar
got it wrong on the security company G4S, it should be noted that nowhere in
the piece by Al Akhbar does it actually say that the company is Israeli. People

تقول
المنظمة غير الحكومية البريطانية «أصدقاء الأقصى» (FOA) إنّ G4S تؤمّن خدمات للسلطات الإسرائيلية، منها إدارة
السجون، الحواجز ونقاط التفتيش
“In a report published by the organization ‘Who Profits’ on the
role of the company in human rights violations in Israel”
تقول
منظمة «من المستفيد» (Who Profits?) في تقرير نشرته عام 2011 حول دور الشركة في انتهاك حقوق الإنسان في
إسرائيل
“Its
involvement in activities in Israel”
"انخراطها بنشاطات في إسرائيل

From Fahd: "

security services for Israel 2 years ago...
