The New Israel Fund, a US-based left-wing NGO which has long been suspected of financially backing anti-Netanayahu protests in Israel, recently admitted for the first time that it is doing so, Israel’s Channel 14 News reported.

An email sent to supporters on Tuesday obtained by Channel 14 states: “The New Israel Fund assisted with a special grant to the many civil society organizations that took part in organizing the huge demonstration on Saturday night in Tel Aviv.”

“Shatil [an Israeli branch of the New Israel Fund] took part in coordinating and synchronizing the various parties that participated in the show of force.”

“The foundation also assisted the Tag Meir organization in supporting and organizing the demonstration in front of the Knesset on the day the new government was sworn in as well as the LGBT demonstration that took place the same day.”

The foundation also announced it is granting an “emergency grant” to the Association for Civil Rights in Israel (ACRI), a group that will carry out a digital campaign explaining the “true meaning of various bills” the Netanyahu government is advancing.

  1. “Emergency Grant” means money to start a Jewish Civil war, or intifada to murder Jews with excuse.

    Thank you to all Jewish donors.

  2. The Leftist Bolsheviks lost a democratic election, so now they will try to make a “putch”.
    If you don’t know what a “putch” is, Avigdor Lieberman can help you out with that.

  3. Tax all foreign money coming in for political purposes by 50 % , give the money to their opposites. At least there will be a level playing field.
