Left-wing billionaire George Soros is facing backlash from Israel's UN ambassador Gilad Erdan for allegedly funneling more than $15 million to a network of NGOs that support Hamas, a terrorist organization designated by the United States.
Erdan criticized Soros for supporting organizations that seek the destruction of Israel as a Jewish state. He accused Soros of transferring money to anti-Israel groups, including those involved in the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement, which has been branded anti-Semitic by the German and Austrian parliaments.
Rachel Ehrenfeld, author of “The Soros Agenda,” says support for pro-Hamas and pro-Palestinian groups in the US comes not only from foreign entities but also from US-based foundations, including foundations of the society open (OSF) of Soros.
OSF has reportedly donated significant funds to NGOs that are allegedly pro-Hamas and anti-Israel. Some of these NGOs have been accused of justifying the elimination of the Jewish state and posting inflammatory content on social media.
When asked if OSF considers Hamas a terrorist organization, a spokesperson for the foundation declined to answer, but condemned attacks against Israeli citizens and expressed support for accountability for war crimes.
Critics have accused OSF-funded NGOs, such as Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) and IfNotNow, of being radical anti-Israel and anti-Zionist organizations advocating the boycott of Israel and the eradication of Zionism. These groups have been linked to controversial statements and support for Hamas-related activities.
The article also mentions that Soros' son Alex has taken over his father's $25 billion fortune, and Israel's Diaspora Affairs Minister has expressed concern that he may continue his father's footsteps concerning Israel.
This news has sparked outrage and raised concerns about foreign influence and alleged support for terrorist organizations. The article stresses the need for transparency and accountability in NGO funding and the importance of combating anti-Semitism and terrorism.
