Google's Head of Diversity: Jews Have "Insatiable Appetite for War"
5 comments
Last month, Apple was pressured into purging Chaos Monkeys author Antonio García Martínez over literally nothing. Don't expect Google to follow suit with Kamau Bobb. The rules are different because Bobb was attacking Jews from the Left.
Progressive antisemitism is okay.
Google’s head of diversity strategy said in a 2007 blog post that Jews have an "insatiable appetite for war" and an "insensitivity to the suffering [of] others."
Bobb was at the time a research associate in technology at Georgia Tech, according to his LinkedIn. The post, titled "If I Were A Jew," described how he believed Jewish people should view the Middle East conflict.
Bobb followed the usual track, including a stint as a member of Obama's My Brother's Keeper Initiative. There's lots of stuff about equity and diversity. And his bio contains one interesting note that caught my eye.
Prior to his work in Georgia, Dr. Bobb was a technology policy analyst at SRI International where he conducted research on university strategic planning and STEM workforce analysis for clients in the United States and the Middle East.
Bobb apparently brought out the 1619 Project's Nikole Hannah-Jones to talk up her racist revisionist history at Google.
Holocaust Survivors Issue Open Letter Warning of ‘Unchecked Anti-Semitism’ in U.S.
(CNS News) -- In the wake of the anti-Semitic demonstrations and attacks that have occurred in this country, apparently in response to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, a group of Holocaust survivors published an open letter to American leaders and citizens, calling on them to “forcefully reject anti-Semitism and the misuse of the Holocaust in our national discourse.”
In the May 28 letter posted on the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum’s website, the survivors expressed their deep appreciation and admiration of America, their “adopted homeland.”
“Yet today, our solemn obligation to the memory of those who were murdered in the most destructive eruption of anti-Semitism the world has ever experienced compels us to write this open letter to our leaders and fellow citizens,” the letter reads.
“We are seeing an alarming confluence of events that we never imagined we would witness in our adopted homeland,” they wrote. “We cannot remain silent in the wake of the recent anti-Semitic attacks in cities and towns across the country. We know firsthand the danger of unchecked anti-Semitism.”
“This targeted violence is happening as we also watch with great dismay a persistent and increasing tendency in American public life to invoke the Holocaust for the purpose of promoting another agenda,” said the survivors.
“It is deeply painful for us to see our personal history—the systematic destruction of our families and communities and murder of six million Jewish men, women, and children—exploited in this way,” they wrote. “What we survived should be remembered, studied, and learned from, but never misused.”
The letter concludes, “We thank those leaders in government and other sectors of American society, including business, academia, religious, and civic, who have forcefully rejected anti-Semitism and the misuse of the Holocaust in our national discourse. We call on all leaders and citizens to do the same.”
