Brian of London here: score one more success for the excellent NGO Monitor. They’ve managed to knock out the funding from NIF (New Israel Fund) for the execrable organisation, Coalition of “Women” for “Peace”. Obviously I have to quote the word “Women” – have you seen them? and “Peace” – because the only peace they’re talking about is submission to the “peace” of Islam.
They’ve issued an amusing little press release today with much wailing and gnashing of teeth:
Last Monday we have been informed of the NIF decision to stop acting as fiscal sponsor for the Coalition of Women for Peace. We find this decision and particularly its timing not only unfortunate, but rather dangerous for NIF and for the civil society in Israel, particularly the peace and human rights organisations.
…
This notice came at the same day as NIF response to a “report” by NGO Monitor focusing on the Coalition of Women for Peace and its role in the ‘destruction’ of Israel. It seems particularly unfortunate that the exact timing of cutting off the relations of NIF and CWP has been dictated by NGO Monitor.
My emphasis. I do so love their use of the scare quotes around the word report!
Well done to NGO Monitor. Keep your eye on them, they’re doing great work! Here is a link to their full report. And it’s only scary if you’re a BDS promoting, terror supporting bunch of hippies with no clue.
