Google, Amazon employees publish anonymous letter denouncing the companies for contract with Israel

A group of anonymous Amazon employees have penned an op-ed slamming their employer for a recent contract with Israel and calling on the company to pull out of the project.

The letter continues, "For this reason, we are compelled to call on the leaders of Amazon and Google to pull out of Project Nimbus and cut all ties with the Israeli military. So far, more than 90 workers at Google and more than 300 at Amazon have signed this letter internally. We are anonymous because we fear retaliation."

The employees allege that Project Nimbus, a partnership announced in June that will make Amazon the Israeli government’s primary cloud provider, will "sell dangerous technology to the Israeli military and government" and "will make the systematic discrimination and displacement carried out by the Israeli military and government even crueler and deadlier for Palestinians."
