A judge in the United States has ruled against an effort by Ben & Jerry’s to block its parent company Unilever from resuming ice cream sales in the occupied West Bank.US District Judge Andrew Carter wrote on Monday that Unilever’s decision to licence Ben & Jerry’s products to an Israeli firm did not cause “irreparable harm” to the Vermont-based ice cream company, and therefore it did not merit an injunction by the court.Ben & Jerry’s had sued Unilever in July, arguing that selling its ice cream in the occupied West Bank undermines its progressive social mission and confuses consumers.
