US Philanthropy Funds Israeli-Designated Terror Group
The Rockefeller Brothers Fund: Funding Hamas-Friendly Groups
The Rockefeller Brothers Fund prides itself on promoting social change for a better world. However, behind the scenes, it has been providing financial support to a Palestinian terror group designated by Israel. Not only that, but it has also donated millions to organizations that fund Hamas or justify its attacks on Israel.
Established by the descendants of John D. Rockefeller Jr., the fund has funneled over $3.4 million since 2018 to Hamas-friendly groups like Defense for Children International-Palestine. This organization plays a crucial role in Hamas’ propaganda machine and has been declared a terror organization by the Israeli government.
Defense for Children International-Palestine has received $165,000 from the Rockefeller Brothers Fund and spreads misleading information used to delegitimize Israel. They have even amplified false claims, such as the alleged Israeli airstrike on Al-Ahli Hospital in Gaza that killed 500 Palestinians. Democratic lawmakers have relied on their flawed statistics to push anti-Israel legislation.
It’s worth noting that Defense for Children International-Palestine’s ties to terror were known before Israel designated them as a terrorist organization. The fund’s top officials and board members have been linked to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), a U.S.-designated terrorist group. Despite this, the fund’s president, Stephen Heintz, defended their support for the organization.
In addition to these troubling connections, the Rockefeller Brothers Fund has also provided $580,000 to Education for Just Peace in the Middle East, a group accused of funding Hamas and other Palestinian terror groups. They have also supported Jewish Voice for Peace, which recently organized a protest resulting in over 300 arrests.
It’s concerning that trustees of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, including Peter Beinart, have shown anti-Israel tendencies. Beinart praised the protesters who stormed a congressional office building and claimed they care about the Israelis murdered by Hamas. Other trustees, such as David Rockefeller Jr., Miranda Kaiser, and Marnie Pillsbury, are members of the Council on Foreign Relations, which faced criticism for hosting an event with Iranian president Ebrahim Raisi, who has threatened Israel’s destruction.
The Rockefeller Brothers Fund has yet to respond to requests for comment.
What evidence supports the claim that Idactic Action for Palestine and Jewish Voice for Peace promote anti-Israel sentiment and justify the violent actions of Hamas?
Idactic Action for Palestine and Jewish Voice for Peace. These organizations have a long history of promoting anti-Israel sentiment and justifying the violent actions of Hamas, the terrorist group responsible for countless attacks on innocent Israeli civilians.
It is deeply troubling to witness a philanthropic organization like the Rockefeller Brothers Fund supporting these groups. While their mission statement may claim to advocate for social justice and equality, their actions tell a different story. By financially supporting organizations that align themselves with terrorism, they are indirectly endorsing and enabling violence against innocent people.
Hamas, designated as a terrorist organization by Israel, the United States, and the European Union, is responsible for the deaths of countless Israelis and Palestinians. Their suicide bombings, rocket attacks, and other acts of violence have caused immense suffering and hindered any progress towards a peaceful resolution in the region. By supporting groups that rationalize these actions, the Rockefeller Brothers Fund not only undermines the security of Israeli citizens but also perpetuates a cycle of violence and hostility.
Moreover, the Palestinian people themselves suffer greatly under Hamas rule. Hamas has systematically oppressed any dissenting voices, utilized public funds for their own gain, and limited the freedom and basic human rights of those under their control. By funding organizations that align themselves with Hamas, the Rockefeller Brothers Fund indirectly supports and prolongs the suffering of the Palestinian people.
It is crucial to hold philanthropic organizations accountable for the causes they support and the impact their donations have. The Rockefeller Brothers Fund must reconsider its funding decisions and align its actions with the principles it claims to uphold. Supporting organizations that promote violence and justify terrorism goes against any notion of social justice or equality.
As individuals, we have the power to make a difference. By raising awareness about the Rockefeller Brothers Fund’s support for Hamas-friendly groups, we can put pressure on them to reassess their funding choices and redirect their resources towards organizations that truly work towards peace, justice, and equality for all. It is only through responsible and ethical giving that we can hope to make real progress towards a better and more harmonious world.
Ultimately, the Rockefeller Brothers Fund must ask themselves if they want to be remembered as an organization that genuinely seeks positive change, or one that inadvertently supports terrorism and violence. The choice is theirs, and the consequences of their actions will have far-reaching effects on the lives of countless innocent people.
It is time for the Rockefeller Brothers Fund to reevaluate its financial support and take a stand against terrorism. Only by doing so can they truly align themselves with their stated mission and contribute to building a world free from violence and oppression.
