Nearly 1,000 Apple employees have signed an internal letter to CEO Tim Cook urging the company to issue a public statement in support of the Palestinian people, The Verge reported Thursday.
"We are frustrated and disappointed because once more, many of those in positions of power and influence - who boldly stand for human rights in so many other just causes - either choose to remain silent or release ineffectually neutral 'both sides' statements with regards to the Palestinian situation," wrote the letter's authors, who are members of the Apple Muslim Association, according to The Verge.
Apple taking a "both sides" approach, they wrote, "would feel to us as the equivalent of 'all lives matter' - a minimization of the disproportionately larger pain and suffering of the Palestinian people."
Apple did not respond to a request for comment on this story.

Support terrorists who’ve launched 3,000+ missiles in the past 2 weeks?
Here’s a thought - focus on making money and leave politics out of it compeltely.
These employee letters always promote globalist causes for some reason.
apple should send every Palestinian a free iPhone. instant feminization; the Israelis win in a walk.
How is Tim Cook supposed to influence U.S. Foreign Policy?
Nearly 1000 employees is a drop in the bucket for Apple. They could fire all of them and replace them within a month.
Amazing how many anti Semitic folks work for Apple. They also know nothing about what is going on.
Found in the dictionary under "useful idiots".
MG! I can’t believe all the people who like terrorists!
These people could easily be replaced. it’s time CEOS start canceling their asses. Let them go be woke at Starbucks
The number one killer of innocent Palestinians, is Hamas. They have disposed of any and all Palestinians that do not support their agenda of genocidal anti Semitic terrorism. No surprise.
Damn! 1000 employees who think they can tell Tim Cook what to do. I wonder how much muscle these Participation Trophy idiots have out of the 147,000 employees who work for Apple. I hope you signed your name and that you use your severance pay to buy an apartment in Gaza that Hamas just happens to be using to lob missiles into Israel.
“I can’t believe all the people who like terrorists!”
That brings to mind the umpteen times I’ve seen idiots with a Che Guevara poster on their wall.
Why not? This tactic worked when it was done against Trump and in support of BLM. Why not simply continue to pressure the management that has always been more than willing to bow to the woke crowd. Marxists always end up slaughtering everyone.
And people wonder why God does the Apocalypse?
Something tells me there is a lot of dead wood inside apple that needs to be cut.
Not only NO but ....
Apple supports prison camps in communist China. If the terrorists in the mideast can assemble an iPhone I am sure he will support...
No non-Jewish state in the Middle East welcomes Palestinians. They have been thrown out of Jordan and banned from entering Saudi Arabia. They have always been troublemakers. Nobody wants anything to do with them. They are trash.
