The second is that Al Jazeera has been found giving press credentials to multiple people who turned out to be soldiers in Hamas’s war on Israel. That would be indisputable grounds for suspending an agency’s credentials.

In the course of its Gaza operations, the IDF has found troves of documents that identify a great many of the Strip-based terrorists, some of whom work for Al Jazeera. Ismail Abu Omar was wounded in an IDF strike in Rafah. Al Jazeera claimed him as their own, flew him back to Qatar for treatment, and expressed deep outrage. Israel responded that Abu Omar was indeed an employee of Al Jazeera—while spending much of his time as a deputy company commander in Hamas’s East Khan Younis Battalion. Abu Omar appears to have participated in Hamas’s Oct. 7 invasion. As Jonathan Schanzer wrote here in March, “In a bizarre twist, Abu Omar actually signed his name to a Telegram photo of a murdered IDF soldier whose body was taken by Hamas into Gaza.”

There’s Mohamed Washah, whom one could find on Al Jazeera video reports and who also, according to numerous documents and photographs, serves as a prominent Hamas tank commander. Two Al Jazeera “journalists” were killed in a strike in January; one of them turned out to have been a rocket-specialist for Palestinian Islamic Jihad and the other a drone operator with Hamas.

How “journalisty” this all sounds to you probably depends heavily on whether you think a reporter’s first obligation is to kill Jews. I received my journalism degree without taking a single class on joining a foreign terrorist army, so it is not recognizable as the journalism I personally was trained to do—but your mileage may vary.

Now, a good-faith critique of Israel’s proposed ban might engage with this fact—that the Qatari-funded Al Jazeera appears to have been an organizational arm of the Qatari-funded Hamas terrorists who butchered 1,200 innocent Israelis on Oct. 7. Perhaps the law is still too vague, or you worry it gives Israel too much leeway to ban actual journalistic outfits under the same rules. Or you fret that the 45-day suspension is too easily extended. Even a passing familiarity with Israel’s Supreme Court would cure you of such worries, but not everyone possesses that passing familiarity. At the same time, an argument made out of ignorance can still be one of good faith.

What isn’t good faith, however, is any one of the above-mentioned arguments made by prominent political figures and supposed experts in the field of foreign affairs.

Max Wolff after Abu Dhabi? They’re sitting in hospitality waiting for the verdict, Mercedes is fighting the result and not just is she conflicted, she’s scared. She had a breakdown in the shower after the race and now she’s sitting on the floor while Geri braids her hair. Everyone is quiet and scared. It’s only Christian, Geri, GP and Jonathan in the room with her. Checo has run out to get everyone coffee and something to eat. He’s been hovering by her side since the race ended, he absolutely refuses that the media talks to her. He’s like an annoyingly overprotective brother but it’s helping today. Christian breaks the silence by offering that Max flies home with them when the result is out. She can stay with them as long as she needs to while the storm quiets down. She starts crying all over again, she’s never been scared about going home before. But now she’s scared of what her parents will say and she doesn’t want to be around angry people. Toto would be absolutely crushed when he realizes where Max’s head is at. Max doesn’t show up for the flight the next morning, she’s not responding to their texts and the pilot for the private jet confirms that Max said she won’t be coming. He knows she’ll be on the farm with Christian and he feels awful that she feels like she needs to give them space. He just wants his little girl to be home. Susie maybe going up to the farm? She’s more neutral, she just needs to make sure her little girl is okay and knows they still love her

Oh plss Max just sick with stress and they all feel so bad for her because this is supposed to be her happy moment as first time champion... but she is just sitting alone for a bit, clearly wanting toto and susie but Toto is stuck at Mercedes and Susie is trying to make her way through,all the chaos to see Max but because no one knows Max is a Wolff yet, she isn't let in easily...

Christian and Geri soothing Max and offering to take her back with them, have her stay until things cool down and Max agrees before bursting out crying. She is afraid to go home and nothing has ever hurt like.that, she is so afraid Toto and Susie will be angry and she cannot stand being around angry people, especially not if it's them....

Toto and susie have tried to get into contact with Max all night but also gave her space when she didn't answer. But then the next day, Max doesn't show up for the flight home and they are told she isn't coming with them and pls they would be heartbroken!

Toto feeling particularly bad and blaming himself and Susie ends up going to the farm because it might be easier. Max is so shy seeing her, trying to play it off but her whole body is tense. Susie going over and very sleepy gathering her in her arms, whispering she is so proud of her champion! Max crying and clinging to her mum and just being so relieved!

Her then asking where dad is and Susie explains he stayed away in case max wasn't comfortable seeing him yet. Max whispering she really wants to see him although she is a little anxious, snd they decide toto will come to the farm too? Max feels safe there.

Pls Max waiting outside when Toto's car pulls in and for a moment, they just stare at each other, but then Max runs over to fling herself into her dad's arms and whispers sorry while Toto just whispers about how proud he is of her!

I heard something absolutely baffling this morning on BBC's Newshour. After interviewing Dr. Ghassan Abu-Sittah, a surgeon at Al-Ahli Arab Hospital, Nuala McGovern interviewed Israeli Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus on the Israeli State's Intelligence.

The Lt. Col. got on air and essentially argued that Hamas was supplying Palestinian hospitals *because* they do not care about Palestinian life and that Hamas' "game" is world-wide empathy for the Palestinian people and outrage over their treatment. His message: the other side is worse than us. Rather than citing Hamas' authoritarian rule and dictatorial treatment of Palestinians, including torture, to back up this argument (which would be the logical thing to do), he instead parroted the argument that Hamas is worse than Israel *because* Hamas could also be giving the hospitals fuel, but they're not (even though they had been according to the Israeli state), ignoring completely that the hospitals would not be in this situation if not for Israel's bombing campaign. This same man went onto CNN and said the situation at al-Shifa is "the unfortunate results of Hamas' choices," essentially admitting that the siege on these hospitals-- civilian infrastructure with medical personnel and wounded civilians inside-- is punishment for Hamas' actions on October 7.

CW: Audio depiction of fatal wounds and painful medical procedures. An Israeli Military Official denying Israeli responsibility and culpability in the conditions in Gaza, and dodging questions. TW: Use of skeptical language like "reportedly" in regards to Palestinian death figures and "accused" for statements issued against the Israeli state, but using more dictative language like "said" for statements made by the Israeli state.

Partial transcript below:

McGovern: "And why not release that evidence? Because you can see and hear the pressure that Israel is under for these attacks on places like al-Shifa. Why not let the world know what you know?" Conricus: "Well, maybe we will, but-- y'know-- I've been listening in on the conversation here. The previous guest recording spoke-- eh-- a lot, but never mentioned-- eh-- really addressed the elephant in the strip: Hamas. Hamas governs the Gaza strip. Hamas runs the Gaza Strip. Hamas told the people; the administrator of the Shifa Hospital not to accept the fuel; the 300 liters that we provided--" McGovern: "But--" Conricus: "Hamas is the one preventing civilians from leaving--" [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ] McGovern: "Let's talk, let's talk about--" Conricus: "Hamas is the one who builds infrastructure there-" McGovern: "Lets talk about the specifics of the 300 liters of fuel-- eh-- which Israel says it was delivering to al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza. Ehm... they say they need 8,000 liters of fuel, that that request was rejected by Israel, and that 300 would only fuel a generator for about half an hour. You're hearing from doctor Sittah there about what he is going through on a day-to-day basis, with women not able to get cesarians, with only two operating theaters-- eh-- that are actually functioning, never mind no anesthetic, for example. Umm... 300 liters it--it's not even a token gesture." Conricus: "Well, it is actually much more than what Hamas are doing. And, and let's set the record straight here: we called on the people, including the Shifa Hospital and everybody else, in Northern Gaza to evacuate, and we did that more than two and a half weeks ago." [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ] "Since then, we have consistently called and informed everybody there that it is dangerous-- eh-- to be in Northern Gaza because we're doing-- we're going to conduct major combat operations. Let me, please let me finish. And in addition to that-- y'know-- Hamas has been stockpiling fuel, and they've been letting out, basically, rantioning [sic]-- eh-- rationing fu-fuel to the hospitals because they want to achieve exactly what is happening now. They want you and the rest of the world to be outraged at the sorry, horrible scenes of-- eh-- babies that cannot live or are in the threat of dying because of a lack of electricity. That is the Hamas game, here. That is exactly what they want to achieve. They want this outrage because this is their plan and they have absolutely no regard for Palestinian life." *emphasis and context/fact-check links mine

Also see: If Hamas is the government of Gaza, then Israel is not conducting a counterterrorism campaign. If Hamas has the legitimacy of a governing body, then Israel must observe the rules of engagement. And if Hamas is the governing body of gaza, then they, too, have a right to defend their borders and have a right to take Israel to the ICC. (a.k.a. This is not the argument they "want" to be making to the international community.)

BY PARK MACDOUGALD

The “movement,” in turn, while it recruits from among students and other self-motivated radicals willing to put their bodies on the line, relies heavily on the funding of progressive donors and nonprofits connected to the upper reaches of the Democratic Party. Take the epicenter of the nationwide protest movement, Columbia University. According to reporting in the New York Post, the Columbia encampment was principally organized by three groups: Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP), and Within Our Lifetime (WOL). Let’s take each in turn.

JVP is, in essence, the “Jewish”-branch of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement, backed by the usual big-money progressive donors—including some, like the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, that were instrumental in selling Obama’s Iran Deal to the public. JVP and its affiliated political action arm, JVP Action, have received at least $650,000 from various branches of George Soros’ philanthropic empire since 2017, $441,510 from the Kaphan Foundation (founded by early Amazon employee Sheldon Kaphan), $340,000 from the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, and smaller amounts from progressive donors such as the Quitiplas Foundation, according to reporting from the New York Post and NGO Monitor, a pro-Israel research institute. JVP has also received nearly $1.5 million from various donor-advised funds—which allow wealthy clients to give anonymously through their financial institutions—run through the charitable giving arms of Fidelity Investments, Charles Schwab, Morgan Stanley, Vanguard, and TIAA, according to NGO Monitor’s review of those institutions’ tax documents.

SJP, by contrast, is an outgrowth of the Islamist networks dissolved during the U.S. government’s prosecution of the Holy Land Foundation (HLF) and related charities for fundraising for Hamas. SJP is a subsidiary of an organization called American Muslims for Palestine (AMP); SJP in fact has no “formal corporate structure of its own but operates as AMP’s campus brand,” according to a lawsuit filed last week against AJP Educational Fund, the parent nonprofit of AMP. Both AMP and SJP were founded by the same man, Hatem Bazian, a Palestinian academic who formerly fundraised for KindHearts, an Islamic charity dissolved in 2012 pursuant to a settlement with the U.S. Treasury, which froze the group’s assets for fundraising for Hamas (KindHearts did not admit wrongdoing in the settlement). And several of AMP’s senior leaders are former fundraisers for HLF and related charities, according to November congressional testimony from former U.S. Treasury official Jonathan Schanzer. An ongoing federal lawsuit by the family of David Boim, an American teenager killed in a Hamas terrorist attack in 1996, goes so far as to allege that AMP is a “disguised continuance” and “legal alter-ego” of the Islamic Association for Palestine, was founded with startup money from current Hamas official Musa Abu Marzook and dissolved alongside HLF. AMP has denied it is a continuation of IAP.

Today, however, National SJP is legally a “fiscal sponsorship” of another nonprofit: a White Plains, New York, 501(c)(3) called the WESPAC Foundation. A fiscal sponsorship is a legal arrangement in which a larger nonprofit “sponsors” a smaller group, essentially lending it the sponsor’s tax-exempt status and providing back-office support in exchange for fees and influence over the sponsorship’s operations. For legal and tax purposes, the sponsor and the sponsorship are the same entity, meaning that the sponsorship is relieved of the requirement to independently disclose its donors or file a Form 990 with the IRS. This makes fiscal sponsorships a “convenient way to mask links between donors and controversial causes,” according to the Capital Research Center. Donors, in other words, can effectively use nonprofits such as WESPAC to obscure their direct connections to controversial causes.

Something of the sort appears to be happening with WESPAC. Run by the market researcher Howard Horowitz, WESPAC reveals very little about its donors, although scattered reporting and public disclosures suggest that the group is used as a pass-through between larger institutions and pro-Palestinian radicals. Since 2006, for instance, WESPAC has received more than half a million in donations from the Elias Foundation, a family foundation run by the private equity investor James Mann and his wife. WESPAC has also received smaller amounts from Grassroots International (an “environmental” group heavily funded by Thousand Currents), the Sparkplug Foundation (a far-left group funded by the Wall Street fortune of Felice and Yoram Gelman), and the Bafrayung Fund, run by Rachel Gelman, an heir to the Levi Strauss fortune and the sister of Democratic Rep. Dan Goldman. (A self-described “abolitionist,” Gelman was featured in a 2020 New York Times feature on “The Rich Kids Who Want to Tear Down Capitalism.”) In 2022, WESPAC also received $97,000 from the Tides Foundation, the grant-making arm of the Tides Nexus.

WESPAC, however, is not merely the fiscal sponsor of the Hamas-linked SJP but also the fiscal sponsor of the third group involved in organizing the Columbia protests, Within Our Lifetime (WOL), formerly known as New York City SJP. Founded by the Palestinian American lawyer Nerdeen Kiswani, a former activist with the Hunter College and CUNY chapters of SJP, WOL has emerged over the past seven months as perhaps the most notorious antisemitic group in the country, and has been banned from Facebook and Instagram for glorifying Hamas. A full list of the group’s provocations would take thousands of words, but it has been the central organizing force in the series of “Flood”-themed protests in New York City since Oct. 7, including multiple bridge and highway blockades, a November riot at Grand Central Station, the vandalism of the New York Public Library, and protests at the Rockefeller Center Christmas-tree lighting. In addition to their confrontational tactics, WOL-led protests tend to have a few other hallmarks. These include eliminationist rhetoric directed at the Jewish state—such as Arabic chants of “strike, strike, Tel Aviv”; the prominent display of Hezbollah flags and other insignia of explicitly Islamist resistance; the presence of masked Arab street muscle; and the antisemitic intimidation of counterprotesters by said masked Arab street muscle.

WOL’s role appears to be that of shock troops, akin to the role played by black block militants on the anarchist side of the ledger. WOL is, however, connected to more seemingly “mainstream” elements of the anti-Israel movement. Abdullah Akl, a prominent WOL leader—indeed, the man leading the “strike Tel Aviv” chants in the video linked above—is also listed as a “field organizer” on the website of MPower Change, the “advocacy project” led by Linda Sarsour. MPower Change, in turn, is a fiscal sponsorship of NEO Philanthropy, another large progressive clearinghouse. NEO Philanthropy and its 501(c)(4) “sister,” NEO Philanthropy Action Fund, have received more than $37 million from Soros’ Open Society Foundations since 2021 alone, as well as substantial funding from the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, the Ford Foundation, and the Tides Foundation.
