From the New York Post,
Microsoft fires 2 staffers who broke into president’s office to protest Israel ties.
Surprisingly, the firing took two business days,
Microsoft said Thursday it fired two employees after an anti-Israel group broke into President Brad Smith’s office to protest the software firm’s alleged ties to the war in Gaza.
A group of seven current and former staffers on Tuesday burst into Smith’s office, located in Redmond, Wash., and demanded the company end its support of Israel – following reports that its software was used by the military as part of its invasion of Gaza.
It also turns out,
Google axed 28 employees last year after a similar series of protests over the tech giant’s contract with the Israeli government and military for its cloud and AI services.
Good riddance.
The S&P 500 index set a new record today, closing above 6,500 for the first time.
