Intel sued by fired Jewish employee over ex-supervisor’s alleged antisemitism

Plaintiff in New York case says he lost job after complaining that his manager openly celebrated terrorism against Israel

A Jewish former employee of Intel sued the chipmaker on Tuesday, saying he was fired after complaining that the senior executive he reported to openly celebrated antisemitism, Hamas and terrorism against Israel.

The plaintiff, a former vice-president of engineering using the pseudonym John Doe, said Intel fired him on 2 April in a purported cost-cutting move barely two months after assigning him to report to Alaa Badr, vice-president of customer success.
