Ireland orders Israeli firm Wix to compensate employee fired over anti-Israel posts
2024-07-23
[IsraelTimes] Israeli software company Wix has reportedly been ordered to pay €35,000 ($38,000) to a former employee in its Dublin branch after she was fired in October for sharing posts on social media in which she called Israel a terrorist state, among other inflammatory statements.

According to The Irish Sun, Wix has acknowledged that its firing of 27-year-old Courtney Carey was "procedurally unfair."

Ireland’s Workplace Relations Commission imposed the compensation, which is lower than what Carey demanded, citing what she described as being "blacklisted" from the tech sector following her public dismissal.

In a post shared on her LinkedIn profile just weeks after Hamas
..the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,...
’s October 7 massacre in Israel, which started the war, Carey wrote that she was proud to be Irish and to "stand in solidarity with the Paleostinian people against the Israeli apartheid."

Without acknowledging the onslaught — in which 1,200 people in Israel were killed and 251 kidnapped — as the catalyst, Carey attributed the "root cause" of the Israel-Hamas war to "Zionist ideology which promotes an exclusivist state which denies Paleostinian identity.

"It is also an expansionary ideology, promoting illegal settlements on Paleostinian land," she claimed. "Do not be fooled by establishment propaganda. You can oppose Zionism as a political ideology while standing firm against antisemitism which is also a form of racism."

Carey has stood by what she wrote, saying last month: "I think I was very soft-handed. What has happened since to Paleostinians and what has been happening at the hands of the Israeli government has only exacerbated and got worse. I’m glad I said what I said."
