 * HAMAS ATTACKS ON ISRAEL ARE THREATENING PGA TOUR’S MERGER WITH LIV: SOURCES


 * OPENAI NEARS STOCK SALE AT $90B VALUATION — WITH HELP OF MIDDLE EAST: SOURCES

Apple and its CEO Tim Cook have been remarkably quiet when it comes to the Hamas
attacks on Israel – and sources speculate it has something to do with China.

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg condemned the Oct. 7 attacks as “pure evil.” Microsoft
CEO Satya Nadella posted he was “heartbroken by the horrific terrorist attacks.”
Google CEO Sundar Pichai proclaimed his “stand against antisemitism.” Amazon CEO
Andy Jassy on X called the attacks on Israel “shocking and painful.” 

Meanwhile, Cook – who pulled Apple products out of Russia following the Ukraine
invasion, posted an open letter on Apple’s website “speaking up on racism” and
has told climate skeptics he doesn’t want them to hold Apple shares – has posted
nothing on social media about Israel and Hamas since the attacks.

Indeed, the only public statement from Cook readily accessible online appears to
be one he gave the Jerusalem Post earlier this week – and some tech insiders
viewed it as relatively wishy-washy.

The immediate family of Yitzhak Seitan, 76, his wife, Hannah Seitan, 73, their
son, Tal Seitan, 49, and his aunt Pesi Cohen, 68, grieve during the funeral at
the Hod Ha’sharon cemetery, on October 18, 2023 in Hod HaSharon, Israel. Getty

“I am deeply saddened by the devastating attacks in Israel and the tragic
reports emerging from the region,” Cook told the newspaper in a statement
published on Monday. “My heart goes out to the victims, the families who have
lost their loved ones, and all those who suffer as a result of this violence.”

The statement doesn’t appear to have been published anywhere else. Some tech
insiders speculate it’s because of Apple’s fragile relationship with China,
which accounts for more than 20% of the company’s revenue and an estimated 95%
of its manufacturing.

Apple did not respond to requests for comment.

China’s foreign minister this week reaffirmed the “just cause” of Palestinian
nationalism. The country, which has been looking to expand its role as a power
broker in the Middle East – even committing to invest $400 billion in Iran – has
stopped short of explicitly condemning Hamas as it called for peace and
criticized Israel’s retaliatory airstrikes. 

One Israeli official in Beijing, Yuval Waks, said he hoped for a “stronger
condemnation” of the attacks. “When people are being murdered, slaughtered in
the streets, this is not the time to call for a two-state solution,” Waks said.

Meanwhile, Tim Cook popped over to China for a surprise visit this week,
cheering on gamers at an event in southwestern China. The PR stunt appeared to
work: On Wednesday, the Chinese Commerce Minister issued a statement saying the
country backs and “greatly values” Apple.

The terrorist attacks come in the wake of China banning iPhones for government
officials at work — a move that sent Apple’s market capitalization plunging by
$200 billion.

At the same time, Huawei has replaced Apple as the top smartphone maker in
China, according to a Jefferies report.
