Mossad would encourage it. Moosad is not a gang where you cannot leave. They want ex-mossad in high positions because they can leverage that later.

Spotted the handler, hah. Leverage because no one ever really leaves, do they?

I understood but am skeptical of that - they'd block sale of the entire company but I think it'd be a surprise if they prevented a bunch of Israeli nationals from accepting prestigious jobs with an American company.

1) of course they would. Or worse (see Gerald bull).

2) any company doing that would have to be insanely naive or reckless.

1. Consider that there might possibly be room between designing long-range weapons for an enemy state and working for an allied country.

2. Indeed: that’s my second paragraph above.

Consider as well that designing (known obsolete at the time, with no practical threat to Israel) long range weaponry for a relatively benign enemy (Iraq was never Iran or Egypt) is likely far more forgivable than assisting a far more powerful foreign power with a history of at times cool relations with Israel with the current high priority useful intelligence tool which they are known to have a unusual world class edge in right now.

Gerald Bull was annoying. Someone good leaving any of the APT groups in Israel to help Apple get better security or anyone else would be borderline treason.
