They pledged to reserve 180 positions specifically for Jewish students who feel unsafe \u200don campus and seek refuge outside of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/department-of-education-rule-threatens-viability-of-for-profit-colleges\/\" title=\"For-profit colleges face viability threat due to Education Department rule.\">traditional higher education institutions<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This move by Palantir comes just a\u2064 day after the presidents of prestigious universities like Harvard, UPenn, and MIT skillfully evaded the question \u2062of whether advocating for the genocide of Jews on their campuses constituted bullying and harassment. They argued that &#8220;context&#8221; was necessary.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">We at Palantir have been committed to defending the principles that make democratic rule possible since our founding two decades \u200dago.<\/p>\n<p>Our software embodies our values and commitments.

They revealed that Jewish students on campuses are \u2062living in fear and have\u2063 been instructed by administrators to conceal their Jewish \u200didentity.<\/p>\n<p>Palantir then made their groundbreaking offer: &#8220;We are launching an initiative for\u2064 students who, due to anti-Semitism, fear for their safety on campus \u2062and need\u200b to \u200cseek\u2063 refuge outside\u2064 of traditional higher education establishments. They are \u2062welcome to join Palantir, and we are immediately setting aside 180 positions for them. More details will follow shortly.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>On December 2, Alex Karp, the CEO of Palantir Technologies, passionately criticized companies that remained silent following the \u200cOctober 7 massacre.\u200b Speaking at \u2063the Reagan \u2063National Defense Forum, Karp condemned\u200c these companies for their &#8220;abysmal failure at standing \u2062up to people who are anti-American, who\u2062 are breathing the vapors of a \u200dthin new religion at elite schools.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As far\u200b as I \u200bcan tell, there are only three companies that have been publicly pro-Israel on Oct. 7,&#8221; he stated, \u2062naming Palantir, Booz Allen, and Anduril Industries.<\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-describedby=\"sk-tooltip-9096\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1700760801843000&#038;usg=AOvVaw2PQrVSrJfhxNb4LcARqniG\">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Karp further \u2064criticized the corporate elite of the country, highlighting their\u2064 tendency to\u2064 prioritize \u200cprofit over taking a stand.
