Sweden’s role in funding numerous NGOs that pursue radical political agendas, including rejecting any form of normalization with Israel, fuels the conflict. Diakonia international law project that uses distorted and misleading interpretations of international law. Funding for the AIC, PCHR, and Al-Haq. Sabeel’s Nakba Memory program. Other NGO grantees use “apartheid,” “ethnic cleansing,” and “massacres” rhetoric. Many NGOs receive Swedish funding from multiple sources, raising questions about administrative procedures and oversight.

The program represented the Palestinian political agenda, and was a platform for the demonization of Israel. Speakers were from highly politicized NGOs, including Miftah and Ir Amim, and all represented a narrow section of the political spectrum. Miftah claimed “suicide bombings [are] a symptom of a much bigger problem,” and Ir Amim contributed to the anti-Israel exercise. Another NGO discussed “the Palestinian struggle against Israel’s occupation, ethnic cleansing and institutionalized apartheid over 61 years.” Wed, 24 Jun 2009 00:00:00 -0700http://www.ngo-monitor.org/article.php?id=2473http://www.ngo-monitor.org/article.php?id=2473http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/NgoMonitorResearch/~3/QmDwFzYHWCA/article.phpTue, 16 Jun 2009 00:00:00 -0700http://www.ngo-monitor.org/article.php?id=2456http://www.ngo-monitor.org/article.php?id=2456http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/NgoMonitorResearch/~3/Iu_a-uhZI7c/article.phpTue, 16 Jun 2009 00:00:00 -0700http://www.ngo-monitor.org/article.php?id=2457http://www.ngo-monitor.org/article.php?id=2457http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/NgoMonitorResearch/~3/ZA61ih6A_Zc/article.phpTue, 16 Jun 2009 00:00:00 -0700http://www.ngo-monitor.org/article.php?id=2458http://www.ngo-monitor.org/article.php?id=2458
