→Google and anti-Semitism
According to the ''[[Washington Free Beacon]]'',<ref>https://freebeacon.com/latest-news/google-sanctions-use-of-anti-semitic-slogan/</ref> Google’s human resources department allows an employee’s use of the phrase "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free," the call-to-arms frequently employed by anti-Israel activists. The company's determination came after a Jewish employee raised concerns about the anti-Semitic slogan by a top Google union official on an internal company profile. "The Googler who shared this phrase on his page did so as a show of solidarity with the Palestinian community, which Googlers are permitted to do in the workplace," the human resources employee wrote in an email response to the Jewish employee’s complaint. "While the phrase used is understandably divisive, it was not intended to be anti-Semitic in the way the author used it."

A political slogan used by Palestinian nationalists and terrorist groups like the [[Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine]], "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" describes an aspirational Palestinian state that would extend from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea, eliminating the state of Israel.

[[PLO]] chairman [[Ahmad Shukairy]] made sure he really meant his genocidal calls and only realizing the PR disaster and military defeat of '67 is when the following PLO, [[Yasir Arafat]] tried to camouflage its real aims - progressives admitted that ''This once even the Right could be Right'': <ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=k5eyAAAAIAAJ&q=%22shukairy%22 In Search of Facts, Ideas and Challenges], Vol. 5, Iss. 80.

...professing its genocidal ambition openly, without hiding it in any disguise whatever. Its leader, Ahmed Shukairy, kept making a point of it that the Arabs were absolutely literal when speaking of pushing the Israelis into the sea. Following the military disaster Israel that year inflicted on the Arabs, they were internationally overheard discussing the public relations error of their past genocidal candor. Heads of Arab states and Palestinian leaders were voicing this tactical self-criticism in newspaper interviews and articles, in radio and television broadcasts, in speeches before parliaments.
The adjustments made in the aftermath of this self-criticism included the replacement of the undiplomatic Ahmed Shukairy with the highly diplomatic Yassir Arafat as leader of the Palestine Liberation Organization . Also included was a new semantic formula which, incorporated in the Charter of the PLO, for the first time provided however thin and tortuous a camouflage of the genocidal ambition. What used up until that point to be loudly and proudly advertised was now being pro forma denied whenever necessary, accompanied by a meaningful wink of an eyelid.
