Some Groups Don’t Like Intel
AMD isn’t the only one that dislikes Intel. Some Jewish persons don’t like Intel too..
Hundreds of ultra-Orthodox Jews have demonstrated at Intel Corp’s new electronic chip plant in Israel in protest against work taking place at the site on the Jewish sabbath.
The protesters said on Saturday it was a desecration of the Sabbath, which runs from Friday night to Saturday night.
They were dispersed by police and a company spokesman said the plant was operating within the law and would continue to do so.
Intel, the world’s biggest chip manufacturer, opened the west Jerusalem plant for installation work before its inauguration on Sunday.
Where these people don’t like Intel for religious reasons, some in Coralles, New Mexico think Intel is poisoning them.
Please understand that the new chemicals that are being used up there are causing illnesses as serious as we had in the 1990s. Vison is blurred, eyes are burning and skin is peeling off the eylids. One breath of the toxic air causes choking, coughing and in Patricia’s case gasping for air. The toxins collect in her west side patio and in her house. With me it settles all around my property and comes in the house. This morning my eyes were swollen shut and inflamed I could hardly see. Each day my vision seems to be getting worse
I should note that the State of New Mexico cleared Intel of making people sick in 2004 but that decision was very controversial.
