The Intercept reported in February 2025 that after 7 October 2023 Catz demanded 'Oracle Stands with Israel' be shown on company screens worldwide, called pro-Palestinian rights groups 'brainwashing organizations', and in November 2024 laid down the employment terms: 'For employees, it's clear: if you're not for America or Israel, don't work here.'

Who Profits says Oracle donated equipment worth more than $500,000 in January 2024 'amid the military invasion of Gaza'. A loyalty oath, with a hardware donation attached.
