Q: When President Barack Obama dined with a dozen technology business leaders in California four years ago, it was Google executive chairman Eric Schmidt who sat at the head of the table. Obama sat on one side, between the late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs and Facebook pioneer Mark Zuckerberg, but the place of honor was no accident. Google executives and employees donated more than $1.6 million to Obama's two White House campaigns, and the online search giant parachuted top talent into both. One result has been a coziness with the U.S. government's executive branch that few other companies can match – marked by access for lobbyists, mentions in nearly half of Obama's State of the Union addresses, and a personnel feeder trough serving the White House with new senior hires.Google employees donated $1.6 million to President Barack Obama's two White House bidsThe company told Daily Mail Online that it has spoken with the Federal Trade Commission about antitrust concerns; it was investigated in 2011 but later let off the hookIn the 2012 election, the company’s search algorithm customized results for Obama but not for Republican Mitt RomneyGoogle execs who have left to work in the White House include Obama's chief technology officerHillary Clinton also poached her new tech chief from Google this week

Q: (CNN) After a devastating coral die-off, campaigners in Australia had been expecting the Great Barrier Reef to slip onto UNESCO's "List of World Heritage in Danger." However, the World Heritage Committee opted not to include it during its annual meeting in Poland, a move praised by the Australian government as a "big win," but condemned by campaigners as "farcical." UNESCO's List of World Heritage in Danger has 55 entries, which include natural wonders and man-made sites. Jerusalem's Old City was added in 1982, and Aleppo, the Syrian city bombarded by air strikes, made the list in 2013. In a draft document later adopted without debate, the World Heritage Committee noted with "serious concern" coral bleaching along the Great Barrier Reef, and asked for an overall report on the state of conservation by December 2019.UNESCO leaves World Heritage Site off list of endangered sitesGovernment calls decision a "win"; environmentalists disagree

A: The _ government commended the decision to leave the Reef off the list.

Q: (CNN) Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard said she's "skeptical" that Bashar al-Assad's regime was behind the chemical weapons attack that killed dozens of people in Syria. Gabbard's remarks came after Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said, "We have a very high level of confidence that the attacks were carried out by aircraft under the direction of the Bashar al-Assad regime," and President Donald Trump said: "There can be no dispute that Syria used banned chemical weapons." CNN's Wolf Blitzer asked Gabbard if she didn't believe the President, the secretary of state and Pentagon officials, all of whom came to the same conclusion: that Assad's regime was responsible. Gabbard mentioned the previous invasion of Iraq, and the intelligence that suggested Iraq had weapons of mass destruction, which turned out to be false. "So, yes, I'm skeptical," she said.The Hawaiian congresswoman disagreed with the Trump administration's assessments"Why should we just blindly follow this escalation of a counterproductive regime-change war?"

A:
"Don't you believe _-Assad bears any responsibility for the horrific deaths that have occurred in his own country?".
