Google Fires Employees for Protesting Israel Contract
Google Fires Employees , for Protesting Israel Contract.
28 Google workers have been fired for protesting
a $1.2 billion contract that the company has with
the Israeli government and military to provide
cloud and AI services, NBC News reports.
.
The firings follow an April 16 sit-in at
Google's offices in California, New York and Seattle in which nine workers were arrested.
The group that coordinated the demonstration
is known as No Tech for Apartheid.
.
Google issued a statement about the recent firings.
A small number of employee
protesters entered and disrupted
a few of our locations.
, Google spokesperson, via statement.
Physically impeding other employeesâ
work and preventing them from
accessing our facilities is a clear
violation of our policies, and
completely unacceptable behavior.
, Google spokesperson, via statement.
We have so far concluded
individual investigations that
resulted in the termination of
employment for 28 employees,
and will continue to investigate
and take action as needed, Google spokesperson, via statement.
No Tech for Apartheid claims that the
workers were fired "indiscriminately.".
This excuse to avoid confronting
us and our concerns directly,
and attempt to justify its illegal,
retaliatory firings, is a lie, No Tech for Apartheid, via statement.
Meanwhile, many of Google's workers have
reportedly quit after experiencing "mental health consequences of working at a company that is using their labor to enable a genocide," No Tech for Apartheid said.
On a personal level, I am opposed
to Google taking any military
contracts â no matter which
government theyâre with or what
exactly the contract is about.

in Washington who was arrested during a sit-in, to CNBC

Canada has officially scrapped its controversial 3% Digital Services Tax after former U.S. President Donald Trump halted all trade talks and threatened new tariffs. The tax, set to target tech giants like Amazon, Google, and Meta, faced intense U.S. backlash. Finance Minister Champagne said rescinding the tax is essential to reviving stalled negotiations. Ottawa had previously vowed not to yield, but with over 80% of Canadian exports reliant on the U.S., the rollback clears the way for renewed talks ahead of a July 21, 2025 deadline.

Explained! Why President Trump abruptly ended all trade talks with Canada. Trump called Canada's Digital Services Tax a âdirect & blatant attackâ on U.S. firms. The tax, retroactive to 2022, targets tech giants like Amazon, Meta, and Google, sparking fierce backlash. Trump also threatened new tariffs on Canadian exports, reigniting major trade tensions. With over 80% of Canadian exports headed to the U.S., the move could disrupt industries and escalate economic strain on both sides of the border.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and India's ambassador J.P. Singh convened to explore enhanced collaboration, emphasizing security and economic ties... IndiaTimes
In a night of devastation, Israeli forces demolished homes, flattened shops, and arrested over 10 Palestinians in sweeping West Bank raids. The IDF razed buildings in Dar Salah, exploded the Hebron home of an accused Palestinian prisoner, and justified the destruction by citing the lack of permits and alleged Hamas ties. In Qabr Hilweh, children watched their homes reduced to rubble. Families are now left homeless, helpless, and heartbroken.

Trump has officially ruled out Scott Bessent for the next Fed chair, telling CNBC that Bessent âwants to stay where he is.â The decision follows the surprise resignation of Fed Governor Adriana Kugler, giving Trump another opportunity to reshape the Federal Reserve with loyalists. Remaining candidates include Kevin Warsh, Kevin Hassett, and Fed Governor Chris Wallerâwhom Trump praised as âvery good.â With Powellâs term ending in 2026, Trump is considering naming a âshadow chairâ to counteract his policies and align the Fed with his low-rate agenda.
