The updates to the website come amid backlash over the Black Lives Matter Chicago chapter’s support of Hamas terrorists on social media. The company was also publicly slammed by Cruz on his podcast last week over their financial support of the left-wing movement.

Cruz took to Twitter to call out Coca-Cola for apparently stealth-editing the references to the organization from their webpage.
“CAUGHT RED-HANDED. @CocaCola deletes its support for BLM. One screenshot is of @CocaCola’s website before BLM supported Hamas parachuting into a concert to kill Israeli civilians. The other is from this morning. Editing your website is not enough. Americans DEMAND an apology,” Cruz tweeted.
Multiple BLM chapters celebrated and endorsed Hamas’ attacks on Israel, which resulted in over 1,400 people murdered and over 200 taken hostage. BLM Chicago posted a graphic of a Hamas paraglider captioned, “I stand with Palestine.” BLM Chicago responded to the backlash by doubling-down on their support for the Palestinian resistance against Israel, while not mentioning the Hamas terrorist attacks.
