It's an interesting, when you think about how he kind of processes his cultural identity and you kind of write about this, about how he's very in tune with like the Jewish side of it and, you know, defending Israel as part of defending the West.

It feels less in tune or less comfortable talking about at least, you know, kind of like the biracial side of it with his mother.

Talk about that a little bit, how that might inform how he's thinking about this moment.

Well, it's really interesting because, you know, when he was – his brother spent a lot of time talking to me.

His brother is two years younger, lives in Tokyo.

And other people said the same thing, that, you know, when he was in college and high school, Karp identified very much with his black heritage.

I mean, his brother said he was a young black man.

And he doesn't disavow the black side now, but he is – it's the Jewish side that is front and center for him.

It's been that way for years.

And October 7th was –

something that obviously it shook many people, but, you know, shook Karp to a great extent.

You know, he, as I said, identifies very strongly with his Jewish heritage, has been a staunch supporter of Israel.

Palantir's had involvement with Israel now for about 10 years.

Mossad began using its software about a decade ago.

And, you know, when October 7th happens, Karp is shocked and shocked

You know, immediately, you know, says Palantir.

They took out a full page ad in The New York Times about a week after the atrocities in Israel, saying Palantir stands with Israel.

Palantir is going to give Israel everything it needs.

It was another miss for the intelligence gathering software, I guess I should say.

I don't I don't know that it's been working for 10 years.
