In the current world jihad against Israeli existence, it is usually presumed that the worst manifestation is anti-Jewish terrorism and military aggression by the Arab Islamofascists. But in the long run, it may turn out that an even more destructive form of aggression against Israel and the Jews is the financial aggression of those seeking Israel's destruction. This takes the form of pumping megabucks into Israeli seditious and treasonous organizations of the Far Left and into anti-Israel Arab extremists groups inside Israel.
Oversees people and funds wishing the Jews ill have discovered that it may be easier to destroy Israel from within by intervening in Israeli politics anti-democratically. They pump funds into the political groups advocating those things that will result in Israel's destruction, and finance their media assault against Israelis, to the tune of many millions of dollars. Israeli groups often having no more than one or two members are guaranteed generous funding for full-page ads. Such groups exist mainly as Potemkin structures, which do not exist at all beyond the large ads they place in the press.
The more radical and extremist the group, the more assured it can be of massive funding from overseas. The picayune Gush Shalom, run by Israel's Lord Haw-Haw, Uri Avnery, the father of Israeli anti-Zionism, places daily ads in the press touting his "agenda", costing tens of thousands of dollars each week. Where does he get the cash? Other groups spend far more on the ads and billboards.
Any anti-Israel political movement is guaranteed piles of wampum. Yossi Beilin's "Geneva Misunderstandings" have been so generously funded that the promoters apparently do not know how to spend the money as fast as it is coming in, and Ami Ayalon's far-leftist "initiative" is just slightly behind. (Colin Powell is endorsing the Beilin Misunderstandings and several Congressmen for a Second Holocaust are introducing a bill in the House to endorse the Beilin initiative.) The groups promoting mutiny and insurrection in the Israeli army have also been flooded with cash from overseas. So have the communist party front groups, including the various "women's" groups promoting treason.
Who is putting up the cash? Naturally, none of the recipients is disclosing, but we all know the truth. Much is from the European Union, much is from the United States government. I suspect much is from the Saudis.
We know the New Israel Fund, which has never met a seditious group or cause it does not wish to fund (down to and including the defense counsel for mega-terrorists), has been drenched with cash from the Ford Foundation and other foundations. It was once a laughingstock of a "fund", financed with small handouts from the sorts of people who read Tikkun magazine. But thanks to its role in bankrolling leftist extremism in Israel, the foundations have made it a major player. Let us note, it is a "fund" run by overseas non-Israelis, undemocratically tampering in Israeli politics; people who do not hold Israeli citizenship, nor bear the consequences of Israel pursuing leftist folly.
Israel is the only parliamentary democracy in which overseas people and institutions are so massively involved in trying to distort and tamper with the electorate. Israeli elections have long ceased being clean exercises in democracy, and instead, have become events in which overseas leftist kibitzers try to buy their clients in Israel seats in the parliament. If Israel is to survive, it must pass a law criminalizing such financial aggression against the Israeli electoral process by overseas non-Israelis.
