"Since entering the diamond trade in Congo in 1997, Israeli companies have carved out a dominant position, contributing substantially to Israel’s economy. As of 2016, cut diamonds accounted for an astounding 23.2% of Israel’s total exports, making them the country’s most significant export product and constituting 12% of the world’s diamond production. This industry is not just a business sector; it’s a powerhouse of national economic strength, bolstering Israel’s standing on the global stage."

"However, this ascent in the diamond trade coincides alarmingly with the descent of the Congo into conflict and turmoil, raising critical questions about the industry’s impact on the region’s stability."

"Amidst this economic boom, the Israeli diamond industry continues to garner prestigious accolades and recognition at home, starkly contrasting with the situation in the Congo. Industry leaders like Benny Meirov of MID House of Diamonds are celebrated with high honors like the Israel Diamond Industry Dignitary Award, underscoring their esteemed status within the national economic fabric. These awards, bestowed among government officials and industry elites, symbolize the industry’s esteemed position in Israel. However, this national pride and acclaim starkly contrast with the allegations of the industry’s role in fueling conflict and destabilization in resource-rich nations like the Congo."

"[....] The activities of Israeli businessmen in Africa, particularly in cases like Gertler and Steinmetz, prompt a critical examination of the intersection between Zionism, Israeli foreign policy and African geopolitics. These instances, occurring within a broader context of resource exploitation, reflect the complex nature of Zionism as it intersects with global economic and political agendas. Israel’s foreign policy, often seen as an extension of its national ideology, raises questions about the role and influence of Zionism in shaping these international engagements."

why is carbink rare when real diamonds are not rare

diamond industries falsify their rarity and make us think child-mined carbon lumps are better than lab-grown, ethically sourced carbon lumps

just take a lump of coal and pressurize it in a lab and then use it in a ring

and make carbink more common so i can shiny hunt easier

[Image Description: a Yahoo Finance headline that says "Gen Z and millennials aren’t buying lab-grown diamonds because they’re ‘sustainable’ says Pandora CEO, they only care about price and design". End I.D]

I'm gonna start biting CEOs who write thinkpieces. Originally from Fortune, btw

I would be offended if someone wasted money on a natural-grown gemstone for me it's like you don't know me at all.

Just had to post this here and have a laugh at this obvious corpo fluff piece

"The only person we interviewed about this dud her research and found a locally made, ethically sourced and sustainable lab-grown diamond, but that doesn't suit the headline prompt our corpo overlords gave us. Let's instead talk about diamond factories on the other side of the planet with much less sustainable practices so we can make millennials and zoomers look like idiots! And we'll also ignore that even these less sustainable overseas sources are still better for the environment than mined diamonds, and infinitely more ethical than literal blood diamonds by virtue of not using literal slave labor."

"but no wait! One of our only primary sources is a diamond industry expert who is a stockbro and co-owner of a company with massive financial stakes in the traditional diamond mining industry!"

"Let's not forget to really emphasize that natural diamonds are better because their prices are more stable, because everything in our lives should be treated as an investment platform, even an irreplaceable show of devotion to the person you love most and hope will never part with it."

"And don't forget, if you cheap out we'll know. EVERYONE will know you were willing to boycott a dying industry propped up on war profiteering a cheapskate"

Oh don't worry guys, we can see plainly why this article was written.

Uh yeah I sure hope they drop in price. Imagine good jewelry being available at reasonable prices, the horror.

Ah yes three billion years and the sweat and blood of exploited indigenous people press-ganged into working in terrible conditions to fund human rights violations like the genocide of the Saan. Wondrous creations of nature!
