I'm guessing if you polled the 25% of Israeli citizens who are NOT Jewish, you would have a different response. The arrogant assumption that only Jewish responses count is indicative of the apartheid mentality that permeates the Israeli power structure.

1. Use your own damn computer, on your own time in your own house/apt. End of story.
2. Don't think your workplace is entitled to give you time to indulge your own foibles, whatever they may be. It doesn't matter if it's political discussions or e-mailing pictures of the grand=kids, do it on your own time...duh!
If academics are discussing issues or concerns relevant to their particular fields of study or expertise, then that's a different matter...go ahead, keep everything legit and un-embarrassing and put up with the same rules of FOIA like everyone else.
