Google Fires 28 Employees Involved in Protest Over $1.2B Israel Contract

Google has terminated 28 employees who participated in a sit-in protest at the company’s offices in New York and Sunnyvale, California, over its $1.2 billion contract with the Israel government.

The protest, organized by pro-Palestinian staffers affiliated with a group called No Tech For Apartheid, aimed to pressure Google to sever ties with Israel amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict.

The protesters, who occupied office spaces and disrupted work, were terminated after an internal investigation found their behavior unacceptable and in violation of company policies, according to a memo obtained by The Post.

Google’s vice president of global security, Chris Rackow, emphasized that such disruptive behavior will not be tolerated in the workplace.

The fired employees criticized Google’s decision, accusing the company of prioritizing its contract with the Israeli government over its own workers’ concerns.
