Earlier this month NGO Monitor released its report on foreign government funding of radical political Israeli NGOs which work to undermine Israel's international standing and subvert Israeli society. Along with the usual European suspects who give millions of shekels (or Euros or pounds) to Israeli groups like this, it works out that the US government is also funding extremely radical organizations, courtesy of American taxpayers. Notably, the three groups that reported receiving funding from the US are all in the business of waging political warfare campaigns directed at the Israeli public.
According to the report, in accordance with the NGO Transparency Law which requires NGOs to report on donations received from foreign governments, three Israeli NGOs received funding from the US.
Keshev, a radical leftist "media watchdog" group run by some of Israel's most outspoken, and radical journalists and writers received NIS 492,452 in direct aid from the US government.

How people who learned Torah can be socialist is beyond me. I would love for someone to explain it. At the very least socialism directly violates the Commandments that forbid coveting and theft. That society and the economy will be better off is a lie.
The current administration has an agenda and propaganda war going against Israel. On top of this, they have no fear of the LORD. Epic Fail per Gen. 12:3.

A Mo'Bro Team if ever there wuz won.
The Catholic religion is anti-Israel??? Who would have guessed??? /s
There is very little "Catholic" about Catholic Relief Services. Over half their money comes from the US Government. CRS is essentially a wholly-owned subsidiary of the USG. CRS is treated as a "contractor" providing "foreign aid" in various countries. I quit giving to them years ago.
