It also runs a donor-advised fund, a kind of nonprofit entity which have been widely criticized for, among other things, concealing flows of “dark money” to rightwing causes.
This is infuriating.
Lara Friedman, president of the Foundation for Middle East Peace and a former diplomat, said that such fundraisers were telling of the strain on Israel’s military. “It’s December 2023, and it sounds like parts of the IDF are basically begging for basic equipment, which is fascinating,” she said.
Man, are you telling me we’re subsidizing their genocide for billions every year and they still can’t get their soldiers basic supplies? Fuck’s sake. Like, it’s great that their efficacy is limited by supply problems considering they’re attempting a, y’know, genocide, but the sheer incompetence is fucking staggering.
Sure would be great if media outlets stopped calling it “settlements”, “settlers” and such.
I’m not a settler if I went to Canada, shot the owner of a plot of land, declared it as my own and had all my friends move in.
Always has been. How do you think early settlers claimed land? Israel is the modern reflection of settler colonialism in action.
This is why BDS is necessary. Money going to Israel will always fund their genocide.
