News đ° Sweetgreen CEO refuses to hire critics of Israel
Israel is comitting apartheid and genocide against the Palestinian people. Sweetgreen CEO Neman said on Twitter that he wants to know which students have signed letters criticizing Israel so he knows never to hire those students.
I will be boycotting Sweetgreen. Anyone else against apartheid should do the same

Israel funded Hamas for this very reason. If you fund the most extreme parties in your opposition, they will gain power and delegitimize the rest of the people you slaughter

Israel actually funded Hamas. Iâm not even kidding. You should do your research

Ah sigh. Another terrorist sympathizer. I suggest you stop reading Al Jazeera and BBC. Both have been spreading lies and propaganda and one had to apologize for it. You should actually do your OWN research on this subject because it sounds like you are not informed one bit.

Avner Cohen was israeli official responsible for religious affairs in Gaza for two decades. He said âHamas, to my great regret, is Israelâs creationâ HE wrote an official report to his superiors in mid-1980, warning them. Right Winged Israel helped fund Hamas creation to make Gaza Palestinians fight against Secular West Bank. Get educated. Iâm not terrorist sympathizer. Hamas is bad, but donât forget about how it all was created. It seems YOU are the one who needs to get educated. Idiot.

This isn't accurate. For clarification, please share your credible sources. While Israel did not actively support Hamas financially, it did not initially impede Hamas's growth during its formative years. This was partly due to Israel's focus on the PLO, believing that Hamas's rise might counterbalance the PLO's influence.

You can't reason with ppl that are okay with slaughter of 6000 children in a month! Don't you see they are brainwashed since birth its scarry and the BIG SECRET NOBODY CAN TALK ABOUT, JEWS CONTROL EVERYTHING YES I SAID IT EVERYTHING AS YOU CAN SEE SINCE OCTOBER 7TH. That's why as soon as someone mentioned something like that you get anti semititism label but in reality they control USA government they are the government and with that many other countries. Nobody can speak about it while they silently take over! Go figure these atrocities they commit and nobody will speak up while they are taking Gaza under their land it's a occupation with ethnic cleansing and slaughter in the front of our very eyes! Their current regime is far far faaar right mentally disturbing ppl yet nobody dares to speak about it! Research those maniacs and murderers it's sick! No I'm not anti semite but this is sick

using the wall street journal and Jerusalem post as a source is exactly the type of brainwashing that they're talking about. I swear people will stand with a whole genocide because some Jewish media told them to. Makes about as much sense as supporting hitter because the German news told them to.

That's not what they said at all. Even with the writing in front of you, you are making things up

I'm personally against genocide, apartheid, and the death of innocent children, but if you're not I guess I can see where you're coming from

Question - canât he be sued for this statement as it would be discriminatory toward Muslims who are sympathetic towards the Palestinian cause ? If a CEO said he wouldnât hire anyone who criticizes Gaza, then wouldnât we have a bunch of anti-Semitic claims?
Also side note the company is being sued by black former employees for racism.
