No, when capital coordinates people get worried and rightfully so. There are a lot of non Jewish Zionists, just as there are a lot of Jewish non-Zionists. In our industry, the VCs are overwhelmingly Zionist while the rest of the industry is non-Zionist and it's the Zionists that are getting people fired and blacklisted.

    There are ample articles in reputable publications like the financial times discussing how pro-israel many of the country's business leaders are. Many of these people are going out of their way to blacklist students who have publicly expressed pro-palestinian views from positions at prestigious law firms (and to be fair, some of those comments were very incindiery). But many of them have gone further, threatening universities who don't kick pro-palestinian groups off campus with pulled donations.

    Israel also notably has close ties with the American business community, with some calling them "start up nation".
