Loud and proud
WATCH: Palantir CEO Alex Karp Slams Pro-Palestine Heckler in Viral Video
It's 2025 and antisemitism is sadly very much in fashion. So obviously, an uber-rich, highly intelligent Jew like Alex Karp has people flustered.


Alex Karp, CEO of Palantir Technologies, is at the center of a growing controversy over his vocal support for Israel and the company’s role in providing advanced technology to the Israeli military.
The backlash has intensified as critics accuse Palantir’s artificial intelligence (AI) systems of contributing to civilian casualties in Gaza, sparking heated debates about the ethical implications of the company’s defense contracts.
Karp, known for his unapologetic public persona, has openly expressed strong pro-Israel views, describing acts of violence against Israel as terrorism and affirming Palantir’s commitment to supplying technology to counter such threats.
In a November 2023 statement, Karp said, “We supply our product to people who are fighting terrorism,” emphasizing the company’s role in supporting Israel’s defense efforts following Hamas attacks. Palantir’s software, which includes sophisticated data analytics and AI tools, has been utilized by the Israeli military for surveillance and targeting operations.
Obviously, with the rising tides of anti-Israel sentiment and indeed antisemitism, a loud, rich and proud Jew is definitely going to annoy people, and that's exactly what has happened.
Some claim Palantir’s technology enables indiscriminate strikes in Gaza, resulting in significant civilian casualties. Others call Karp a “Jewish Zionist” and allege that Palantir’s AI allows for “high non-combatant casualties per strike,” accusing the company of profiting from violence against Palestinians.
A notable incident involved Palestinian-American activist Sumer Mobarak interrupting Karp at an event, asserting that Palantir’s technology “kills Palestinians,” to which Karp reportedly responded, “That’s true, mostly terrorists.”
Karp was masterful in dealing with the heckler, who wouldn't give him a chance to speak and kept jumping in with hateful comments. He wasn't having any of it.
Planatir has also come under fire recently for contracts with the U.S. Department of Defense, ICE, and other government agencies, facing scrutiny for its data-mining practices. In Israel, Palantir’s systems are said to support a “dystopian surveillance regime,” with some claiming that the company monitors Palestinians’ digital footprints to facilitate military operations. Obviously, these are empty words, backed up by nothing.
Supporters of Karp and Palantir, particularly among the company’s investors, argue that the technology is essential for national security and counterterrorism, praising Karp’s forthright leadership. They point to Palantir’s admission in January 2024 of supplying Israel with defense tech as evidence of its commitment to allied nations.
As the debate rages on, Karp continues to stoke tensions. His recent comments praising the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and aligning with figures like Elon Musk have further complicated his public image, with critics accusing him of opportunism.
The accusations against Palantir’s role in Gaza remain a flashpoint, with no immediate resolution in sight as the company navigates its dual identity as a tech innovator and a defense contractor.
