I feel we need to discuss this first, because I completely disagree with you:

Then you are ignoring all free speech laws and the fact that this is not a common culture or occurrence in Sqeden .

Free speech has nothing to do with this situation. Nothing guarantees you there will be no consequences if you use your place of business for personal agenda. That's not what free speech is about.

staging a reasonable peaceful and coordinated protest

I'm sorry, but you're misclassifying the situation. Abusively occupying an office is not peaceful or reasonable. It is an attention forcing action and it can have consequences. They weren't arrested for their views on the genocidal Israel state, they were arrested for being in a place they're not legally allowed to be in. And they weren't fired for their views on Israel, they were fired for criticising a company customer from the position of an employee
