Since service is manditory for most Isrealies, that just mean the 100 Isrealies in a company of 74,000 employees and somehow that is a conspiracy?

These are people having stronger loyalty to Israel than to the US. Also, would US conpanies employ people with strong ties to Russia, knowing they would suppress any criticism of Russia‘s war in Ukraine? Apparently that’s what these Meta employees with strong ties to Israel did: Suppress any criticism of Israel‘s apparent war crimes in Gaza, for which there are arrest warrants from the ICC.

This is a leap in logic. You have no idea that they would know they would do this.

Ahh, that‘s why university presidents were fired because they allowed students to protest against Israel‘s war crimes in Palestine? But no Meta employee is fired for suppressing criticism of war crimes?

For all the illegal or immoral things Meta employees do and do not get fired for, this is very low on the list.

By that incredibly racist logic Meta should only hire born and bred Americans. How many Russians work at Meta? How many Palestinians?

That was not the point. You can hire both Russians and Israelis, as long as they were not involved in the occupation of Ukraine and Palestine respectively. It gets more trickier with Israel, because of the mandatory conscription to the occupying army, whereas virtually all Russians working in tech that I personally know never served in the Russian military.

At no point did submeta qualify their statement to only apply to former soldiers. Quite the rather - they removed the nuance that did exist in their quoted propaganda articles and made it explicitly based on national origin only.

No, submeta specifically talked about people with "strong ties to Russia" and "strong ties to Israel". This needs clarification, but in the context of the article this clearly means to the country's governments or military, not any random national.

> their quoted propaganda articles

Their comment is now flagged, but from memory the articles they linked were factual. You can label them propaganda all you want, this does not change the truth.

And you mean soldiers of an apartheid state, that is accused of genocide and whose leaders have arrest wartants from the highest court, are like soldiers from any other country?
