===Google and anti-Semitism===
===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.
