BBC media editor Katie Razzall says the former Google exec has been chosen for his insider knowledge of big tech.

Actually, there are only 6 bananas in each bunch. So I had *42* bananas. If that’s not a sign from the gods, I don’t know what is! 🙌

If doing so doesn’t confer a concrete military advantage, not merely impacting or demoralising civilians, this constitutes a war crime. #TrumpCrimes #USIsraelWar https://www.bbc.com/news/live/ce35wke27ynt?post=asset%3A8798c0fb-2a29-4342-939d-681cd8c2d897#post
