Israel’s Ideologues

Another equally disturbing site and organization is NGO Monitor (http://www.ngo-monitor.org/index.html).  NGO Monitor criticized civil society organizations like the Ford Foundation and NGOs like Human Rights Watch.  They attempt to chill funding of Israeli and Palestinian human rights and peace NGOs by labeling their funding and activity as anti-Israel.  Their efforts are similar to those Neve Gordon mentions.  Their world view is that any criticism of Israeli policy is anti-Israel and, the implication has been made by others from similar camps, anti-Semitic.

Organizations like the Public Committee Against Torture in Israel, The NIF, PHR-Israel Adalah, B’tselem, Machsom Watch, the Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions, HaMoked, Rabbis for Human Rights and many other Israeli and Palestinian organizations work to end the conditions that allow for human rights violations.  Because much of such violations are connected to Israeli policy in the Occupied Palestinian Territories and inside Israel proper criticism and scrutiny is justifiably directed towards Israeli authorities.
