one thing is to say: Google leadership is there thanks to their talents and accomplishments; many of them happen to be Jewish. other thing is what you said:

> Google leadership, up and down, is filled with people who are of Jewish and Israeli heritage (or are married to them). What did you expect? Find me a Palestinian in any of their leadership team

your version implies that they are at leadership positions _because_ they are Jewish, and furthermore there can't be any palestinean for the same reason.

as for the "blockade" - newsflash: there are people of palestinean heritage living in the US leading very successful lives



Oh come on. You're seeing things that aren't there.

>your version implies that they are at leadership positions _because_ they are Jewish

That's not at all how I read it. It was merely a statement of fact.


> your version implies that they are at leadership positions _because_ they are Jewish, and furthermore there can't be any palestinean for the same reason.

I did not intend that implication and I'm not sure where you're deriving it from. I think you're looking too deep into my comment, it was just a statement about what I've read, I made no comment about why they're the leaders, just that they are.


> your version implies that they are at leadership positions _because_ they are Jewish

And that's impossible? Because no group has ever discriminated?
