As in previous rounds of the Arab-Israeli conflict, political NGOs have issued numerous unfound statements condemning Israel.
The New Israel Fund distributes grants to a wide variety of Israeli NGOs active in demonization campaigns against Israel.
Many NGOs that claim a human rights mandate have remained silent regarding the recent kidnappings and murders, while most NGOs that have released statements have created an artificial balance by also criticizing Israel and/or blaming Israel.
Gerald Steinberg asserts that in a moral world the kidnapping of three Israeli teens would have produced immediate and widespread outrage, but in the real world those who claim to promote "human rights" are largely silent.
Spanish government funding is allocated to Palestinian, Israeli, and Spanish NGOs that are among the leaders in ideological campaigns to delegitimize Israel via BDS, lawfare, and other forms of demonization.
Transparency regarding government funding for NGOs transcends partisan ideology, and is essential for ensuring the values of democracy and accountability.
