Among the targets of the now 5-year Boycott Diverstment Sanctions (BDS) campaign, one company consistently appears: Caterpillar.  We talk with Larry Cohler-Esses about his investigative story (with Josh Nathan-Kazis) about Caterpillar's sales to Israel and the contradictions between U.S. State and Defense Department policies.
