We do not accept this kind of aggressive anti-Semitic movements.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Jerusalem Post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jpost.com\/diaspora\/antisemitism\/german-media-giant-if-youre-anti-israel-dont-work-for-us-671526\">reported<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"21\">\n<p><em>Berlin-based Axel Springer is the largest digital publisher in Europe, which owns Bild, Die Welt, Business Insider, Politico Europe and many other news brands, as well as Israel\u2019s largest classified ads website, Yad2. \u2026<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Axel Springer put the Israeli flag up in front of its headquarters in May, following antisemitic displays at pro-Palestinian demonstrations across Germany, including marches to synagogues, shouting slogans against Jews, attacks on Jewish institutions and the burning of Israeli flags.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>D\u00f6pfner reportedly said that some people did not want to work for the company if the company flew the Israeli flag and that those people did \u201cnot fit the company and its values.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Axel Springer was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axelspringer.com\/en\/company\/history-2\">founded<\/a> post-WWII in 1946 in the western German city of Hamburg.

Palestinian terrorists fired thousands of rockets at Israel and Israel responded by devastating terrorist infrastructure, including over 60 miles of underground tunnels, inside Gaza. Israel also said it killed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/numbers-from-israels-guardian-of-the-walls-shows-palestinian-terrorists-took-a-drubbing-from-the-idf\">more than two hundred terrorists<\/a>. Out of the estimated 4,350 rockets fired at Israel, approximately 650 fell inside Gaza and Israel\u2019s Iron Dome intercepted roughly 90% of the remaining rockets.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe public doesn\u2019t know everything yet, nor does Hamas. Our accomplishments will be revealed in time,\u201d said former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in May. \u201cWe caused maximum damage to Hamas with minimal casualties on the Israeli side, and of course we grieve all loss of human life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
