Google Diversity Head Said Jews Have ‘Insatiable Appetite for War’
WFB ^ | 1 June 2021 | Alana Goodman

Google’s head of diversity strategy said in a 2007 blog post that Jews have an "insatiable appetite for war" and an "insensitivity to the suffering [of] others." The comments were part of a longer meditation from Kamau Bobb, now head of diversity strategy at Google, that also slammed Israel’s military actions in Gaza and Lebanon that same year.

Bobb was at the time a research associate in technology at Georgia Tech, according to his LinkedIn. The post, titled "If I Were A Jew," described how he believed Jewish people should view the Middle East conflict.

"If I were a Jew I would be concerned about my insatiable appetite for war and killing in defense of myself," he wrote in a Nov. 30, 2007, post on his personal blog, where he was still actively publishing as recently as April 2021. "Self defense is undoubtedly an instinct, but I would be afraid of my increasing insensitivity to the suffering [of] others." The blog features commentary from Bobb on a wide range of issues, including racial equality, U.S. politics, and education policy.

Bobb identifies himself as a Google employee in his blog's biography section.

If I were to write a blog musing on 'if I were a black man maybe I shouldn't be burning down cities and engaging in drive-by shootings' I wonder what the response would be?

Seems like the left are the ones with an insatiable appetite for violence and war.

No! We have an insatiable apatite to defend ourselves from those who wish to destroy us. Never Again!

Insatiable happens, especially when fired upon.

insane comment. insane.
idiotic, too.

first, he speaks about millions of people as if they have one mind. false. the entire Jewish history is evidence to their diversity of opinions and ideas. indeed, there would be no Christianity today had this been otherwise. and the entire Jewish religious system involves the processes of study and debate, debate between different opinions and points of view and theological interpretations. 13,600 pages of Talmud attest to this on each and every page.

second, while you can find a few Jews who believe a certain war is necessary at a particular time in history, Jews are primarily pacifistic in orientation. You almost have to attack them to get any physical reaction out of them, and then (as we have just seen!) they quit their defense efforts way, way way before achieving any kind of victory over their enemies. They have a great defense force but their political decision-takers always give up the victories, and often by pulling back on their soldiers just when they’ve managed to turn the tide and start winning. All in all it really is a strong pacifistic (and what I and many would characterize as a defeatist), not warrior, propensity.

So he maligns an entire people and he does it with false facts.

Not a friend of truth or justice, and not a friend of American values. Sounds like just another communistic/leftist/nazi style propagandist to me.

second,

Google’s head of diversity is obviously an idiot. A token hire.

How demeaning to hire a buffoon like this. Obviously Google has a very low opinion of black people.

I suspect a time plot of military actions in the area would point out the group with the insatiable appetite for war.

The Jewish people are, of all the tribal divisions on earth, among the LEAST likely to go to war for the sheer enjoyment of it all. Pacifist by nature and by tradition, the Jewish people have nevertheless have had to defend their culture and honor against sometimes hugely looming opposition, and most of the time, they make a most credible defense.

After the years of the Holocaust under the Third Reich, the Jewish leaders vowed, “Never again!” So far, they have mad it stick every time they have been challenged.

Self-defense should in no circumstances be considered “aggressive intent”. That is left up to the Islamists. Don’t whack the hornets’ nest with a stick.

I can imagine a Nazi saying the exact same thing, because all they did was say ugly lies about the Jews as an excuse to hate them. The question is, if socialists and leftists need to lie about Jews in order to explain their hatred for them, what is the real reason for their hate? Whatever it is, it’s not something they’re willing to admit.

I would assert that the natural state of mankind is warfare and the times of peace are the rare gaps between wars. The time when nations rest, regroup and rearm.

The greatest inventions of man were driven by the necessities of war.

To say that Jews have an “insatiable appetite for war” is just as racist as saying blacks have an “insatiable appetite for crime.” Neither are true, and nothing this idiot Kamau Bobb says is either.

Hi.

Did he mention that black males have an insatiable appetite for murder (esp. of other blacks)?

"Google Diversity Head Said Jews Have ‘Insatiable Appetite for War’"

Take the opening speech from the movie Patton...

...and replace each "Americans" with "Jews."
