It appears to be the only one able to consistently get US citizens working for US employers in US soil fired for expressing opinions about a conflict halfway to the other side of the globe. If it were Russia or Ukraine lobbists getting US people fired, probably the FBI would be already indicting people for foreign interference in domestic matters.

Can you provide some examples of Israeli lobbyists getting US citizens fired by US employers for expressing their opinions?


Do you have any links to news stories about these firings? Curious to know more.

Also I think your analogy is a bit misplaced; I sure as hell hope the FBI responds differently to enemies than they do to allies.
