On a more practical level, why????
It takes an enormous amount of ultra pure water to make a micro chip. There is a worsening water shortage in that area. This is the worse place to do this.
Also if you built it in the eu, you have easy access to a huge market and ready customers.
Also the Middle East is constantly immersed in war. If Iran wants to really hurt Israel just start blowing up Nvidia.
On a purely practical level, this is really stupid. So the only explanations are politics, or they are being paid to do this. As to whom engineered this I have no idea.
Edit: The more I dig into it, the more this looks like evil bond villain shit.
Lot of Zionists in the Nvidia board and staff trying to tie the worlds most valuable company to the Apartheid state. They want Israel to be a strategic asset like TSMC.
it looks like Israel is paying them to do this. So yes.
More like US American tax payer is paying them to do this indirectly
yup! I have to say that my country has been a decades long disappointment to me.
