If anyone is being ‘funded’, it’s the Zionists on campus

Billions of dollars are funneled from pro-"Israel" business and state figures into the Western world to then return political action and tax-payer funds for "Israel’s" strategic domination of the Middle East.

  • If anyone is being ‘funded’, it’s the Zionists on campus
    Zionist political and campus-based organizations have deep pockets (Illustrated by Batoul Chamas; Al Mayadeen English)

In recent months, American politicians such as Nancy Pelosi have thrown baseless accusations that pro-Palestinian marches and student encampments were the result of foreign funding from Russia, China, and Iran. It suites a perfect irony where the many well-funded Zionist campus groups and United States-based Zionist organizations are well funded through well-connected political donors and the Israeli regime propaganda arm. 

Unlike any regime in the world, "Israel" performs one of the most sophisticated, well-funded, and aggressive foreign influence campaigns, specifically in Academia, targeting students who are either ignorant of "Israel’s" crimes or those who willfully collaborate with their agenda for financial compensation. Billions of dollars are funneled from pro-"Israel" business and state figures into the Western world to then return political action and tax-payer funds for "Israel’s" strategic domination of the Middle East. 

In the United States, nearly every university has a grassroots-funded chapter of the Students for Justice in Palestine group, along with its Jewish pro-Palestine counterpart, Jewish Voice for Peace, as both groups often fight political battles to retain their status as campus clubs due to Zionist influence on the administrations of their school. Columbia University, where the encampment solidarity campaign began, had both SJP and JVP suspend any campus activities and club recognition due to their effective popularity in mobilizing students against "Israel's" genocide in Gaza.

The integrity of language and people

A total of $347,860,310 from only 14 Zionist organizations demonstrates the deep pockets of Zionist donors, which include both state funding routed via non-profit organizations in America and notable donations from the Adelson family, as well as from pornographic business tycoon and majority owner of Only Fans, Leonid Radvinsky, who pledged $11 million to AIPAC.  

Top Zionist projects of 2023 to 2024

Since 2020, with the so-called Arab-Zionist normalization project, two goals have been primary to Zionist proxies globally, [the first is in] furthering the “human bond” between "Israel" and the co-signing Arab states to avoid a “cold peace” outcome as seen in Egypt and Jordan, while the second imitative is perhaps most focused in the West, where a darker legacy of antisemitism exists, whereby the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance and as per its Zionist-focused “working definition” of antisemitism states that it is antisemitic to deny "Israel’s" “right to exist” and [applies] applying “double standards to Israel” in criticizing the crimes of the Zionist project. IHRA is not an NGO, it is an organization made of government officials from over 35 countries, according to the government of Canada website, which is one of the many governments that send representatives to their organization. 

After the UAE normalized relations in August of 2020, followed closely by Bahrain, a quiet move by Sudan, and the last move by Morocco in December of the last Trump year, "Israel’s" Ministry of Strategic Affairs through its social media accounts, proxies, and funded propaganda have prepared programs such as the “peace” delegations, where Arabic speaking influences from the region are invited on a loaded trip within the Zionist entity, in order to repackage Israeli propaganda to a targeted Arab audience and a western audience naive enough to follow. 

Firstly, it must be said that the term peace does not apply to Bahrain and UAE, as the two states have never been in active war or military conflict with "Israel", so the term normalization fits best, along with Arab betrayal, given previous Arab standards that have barred Arab league members from engaging with "Israel" without the achieving justice for the Palestinians, even with tremendous concessions on the Palestinian side. 

Ministry of Strategic Affairs, the Orwellian Zionist machine 

"Israel" hosts a government department known as the Ministry of Strategic Affairs to address its public image within foreign countries and media. The Ministry publicly claims to strengthen the US-Israeli alliance. What its mission statements translate to is direct control of social media accounts  on Twitter, Instagram, Tiktok and elsewhere, and funding Israeli propagandists like Hananya Naftali, Emily Schrader, Yoseph Haddad, Eylon Levy, Rudy Rochman, Hen Mazzig, and many others, all of whom have appeared on mainstream American media and have appeared on American college events, with travel and accommodations paid by the host Zionist organization. 

It is the Zionists who are ‘funded’

The Zionist political and campus-based organizations have deep pockets to spread Israeli government talking points and public affairs strategies. With both state and private funds involved, it is evident that it is not Palestinian groups who are "funded" but rather pro-"Israel" organizations with foreign ties, cash, and political resources, unlike any other section of academic activism. 

Notes:

*Stand With Us names itself “Israel Emergency Alliance” in tax filings.
**Canary Mission operates as a shadow-funded organization receiving private contributions through Jewish not-for-profit charities registered under multiple banners, an example includes Megamot Shalom
