      Ford Foundation Funding Anti-Israeli Groups


      The Ford Foundation, which previously has been accused of bias against Israel, is continuing to fund groups working against Israel. Ford, responding to criticism of funding groups backing racism, has vowed not to support anti-apartheid groups in South Africa but provided $300,000 to the Arab-based Network for Development, which shows a map without the designation of the State of Israel.

      Among groups receiving money from Ford are Arab organizations that promote boycotting Israel.
