At this point Israel is part of shitty American partisan politics. No one thinks on their own. Original thinking is also prohibited by both parties, but mostly by the one that I voted for. I regret voting for them but the other option is worse.

Maybe to Americans it is. To everyone else, including Israelis themselves, it's a completely separate entity.

Mate, we're talking about Google.

Edit: Google employees are largely based in US and I am talking about the zeigeist of what Israel means to most of these employees. They know zilch about Israel but have made up their partisan minds.

Completely separate? Israel is an American project. It receives billions in aid from the US every year and has massive influence in congress through AIPAC.
