Very simply if any concerned Jews wished to support an Israeli Human rights organization why wouldn’t they give money for instance to the Shurat Ha din [ Israel law Center] who concentrate solely on fighting for the rights and compensation for Israeli and Jewish diaspora victims who have been the target of Palestinian/ Arab/ Muslim terrorist attacks. Fight against those and take to task those that are behind the BDS, Flotilla, Flytilla etc.
Why would Jews in the diaspora rather fund organizations that include Israel/ Arab groups most of which work with Palestinian groups to demonize Israel around the globe .
Even if we are to believe NIF funds other worthy Israeli organizations that are not anti- Zionist how can we know what money goes where with these people, is it worth the risk when the NIF have been the subject of so many investigations and controversy ?

THIS IS WHERE DIASPORA JEWISH MONEY ENDS UP >>>>

‘ADALAH’ is just one example of the so called human rights organizations funded by
Daniel Sokatch’s NIF ..[New Israel Fund]

This revealing and extensive report although not new should be read by
those people that are confused or not sure as to why the NIF are causing so much
concern to supporters of Israel.

Bottom Line..

”Political agenda: Delegitimization of Israel
When the above is examined in toto, it becomes evident that the over-riding
agenda of
‘Adalah’ is not protection of the human rights of Israeli Arabs, but rather
the vilification
and delegitimization of Israel.”

Dear Michael, The director of Shurat HaDin – Israel Law Center, Attorney Nitsana Darshan-Leitner, was recently chosen as a winner of this year’s prestigious award for Zionism. The annual recognition, “Lion of Zion” Moskowitz Prize for Zionism, seeks to bestow “support for people…acting for the benefit of the common good in order to ensure the strength and resilience of the national Jewish homeland.”

“I was surprised, thrilled and deeply moved to have been chosen to be awarded the Moskowitz Prize,” remarked Attorney Darshan-Leitner. “Being awarded the prize inspires all of us to be ever vigilant, innovative and even more deeply committed to using legal activism to ensure Israel’s safety and survival,” she added.

Director Darshan-Leitner further pointed out that the announcement comes “at a time Israel’s opponents worldwide are aggressively trying to delegitimize and destroy the Jewish state,” and that such an award recognizes “the important accomplishments Shurat HaDin has achieved in advocating for and defending Israel and Zionism.”

In selecting Darshan-Leitner, the prize committee noted Nitsana’s “dedication, day in and day out, to preserving the honor of Israel and to pressing the legal case against those who seek to harm it.” They additionally stressed that Darshan-Leitner had “achieved results, including some about which we in this country are still unaware… [She] is a beacon for society.”

According to the prize committee, hundreds of candidate credentials were sent in by the general public, in turn making the selection process a lengthy one. The committee stresses that one of the traits shared by all winners is that “each does not see themselves as an extraordinary person…but as one who simply fulfils their duty to make Israel a better place and a more Zionist home.”

Apart from Darshan-Leitner, the prize will also be received by Yitzchak Glick, Chairman of the Emergency Medical Center in Efrat, and Tzvika Slonim, a founder of the Ariel University Center. The award will be presented at a ceremony on May 22 in the City of David, Jerusalem. It will include a $100,000 cash prize, divided amongst this year’s winners.

The Moskowitz Prize for Zionism was established by Dr. Irving and Cherna Moskowitz as an expression of support for people who put Zionism into action in today’s Israeli society. The public committee’s members include Moshe Arens, a former minister of defense, and Brig. General Avigdor Kahalani, receiver of the IDF Medal of Valor. Previous prize winners have included former Mossad director Meir Dagan and the co-founder of Nefesh B’Nefesh, Rabbi Yehoshua Fass.

In October 2011, Attorney Darshan-Leitner was named by Globes, Israel’s leading business newspaper, as one of the Jewish state’s 50 Most Influential Women.

Otto’s point about NIF’s failure to respond to points highlighting its hypocrisy is typical of movements operating under a group think regime. Responding to criticism would involve justifying its stance, while ignoring criticism allows it to regard its opponents as evil and stupid. Spouting slogans and disinformation is regarded as justified in the target of its undermining achieving some fantasised plareau. Reality be damned; long live the ideal comrades!

It is worrisome that Sokatch used the same lies as its fundee Adalah in tarring Israel with legislative sins, not because they were enacted, but because they were conceived. In other words, like all totalitarian sects, the NIF is attempting to impose thought control on Jews. This is the same type of activity that the Organisation of the Islamic Conference is pushing with regard to criticism of religion – but only if that religion happends to be Islam – and the EU where several people, notably Geert Wilders, have been put on trial for openly commenting on events that were obvious.

In reading the comments Adalah makes, and is paid to make by NIF, the Jewish state is depicted as acting in a racist manner. Now if Jews are a race, and we certainly have racial characteristics according to DNA profiles, we are a people and thus entitled to sel-determination. And yet the politically constructed “Palestinians” demand the elimination of Israel on the basis of Jews being nothing other than a confessional group. That mohammedan canard sits well with NIF (and JStreet) which see Jews as nothing unique, just a small part of the great brotherhood of man (and history goes down the memory hole). But the Adalah and NIF stance also reveals typical double think with Jews being a race for the purpose of vilification but merely a religion for the purpose of self-determination.

NIF and its attack dog fundees must be stopped. Lay and religious leaders are derelict in their duties to Jews in failing to denounce them and exclude them from our communities. All those “good” Jews who identify with our enemies must not be allowed to pretend to represent us or as the better type of Jew who is acceptable to our mortal enemies.
