Four Republican Senators — Ted Cruz (TX), Marco Rubio (FL), Tom Cotton (AK), and Bill Hagerty (TN)—blasted the State Department for funneling taxpayer funds to the Movement for Quality Government (MQG), a far-left Israeli nonprofit that is leading nationwide protests against Netanyahu’s government over plans to reform the country’s historically powerful Supreme Court. Those plans that are on standby as a result of mass protests led by MQG.
Washington Free Beacon (h/t Nita) The left-wing group has received more than $38,000 in funding from the United States since 2020, the Washington Free Beacon reported in March. The funding has raised questions about how a partisan foreign organization was able to obtain American dollars. The State Department typically avoids bolstering partisan groups to avoid the appearance of political meddling.
The funding for MQG comes amid chilly relations between the Biden administration and Netanyahu. President Joe Biden waited more than a week to call Netanyahu after the Israeli prime minister’s 2022 election victory and has said in recent days that he will not be inviting Netanyahu to the White House any time soon due to unrest over the Supreme Court reform effort. Biden administration officials have been critical of Netanyahu’s battle with the Israeli Supreme Court, with some accusing the Israeli leader of eroding democracy in the Jewish state.
The Republican senators say the funding for MQG indicates that the Biden administration supports the opposition group’s efforts to oust Netanyahu and destroy his governing coalition.
From: journalist Caroline Glick, According to MQG’s annual reports, for the past three years the State Department has been funding its programs for “democracy education” in Israeli high schools. Since MQG’s primary activity is subverting democracy in Israel by waging lawfare and sowing chaos in a bid to block democratically elected right-wing governments from fulfilling their pledges to voters, it’s fairly clear that when MQG refers to “democracy education,” it doesn’t mean majority rule.
In this week’s Caroline Glick Show, parents’ rights activist Roni Sassover explained that “democracy” curricula like those promoted by MQG are disguised efforts to subvert Israeli democracy. In the case of its school programs, the subversion comes in the form of post-Zionist indoctrination.
While claiming to oppose religious coercion, the actual goal of the “democracy curricula” is twofold. First, it seeks to bar Jewish Israeli schoolchildren in nonreligious public schools from learning about the Bible, Jewish history, religious traditions and holidays. Second, it strives to replace Judaism with post-Zionist curricula. To the extent Judaism is taught, it is taught from a critical perspective.
Similar to Critical Race Theory curricula in the United States, which indoctrinates American schoolchildren to believe their country was born in the sin of racism and has no moral claim to justice, groups like MQG advance “democracy” as a means of gutting Israel’s Jewish character and indoctrinating Israeli children to believe that there is something inherently wrong with Jewish nationalism and national self-determination. The “democracy” programs in the schools indoctrinate children to believe that the only moral way for Israel to organize itself is as a post-Jewish “state for all its citizens.”
And the State Department is funding its efforts.
In 2017, MQG led another anti-Netanyahu campaign. Many of its supporters quit in disgust after Shraga gave a speech at another well-funded rally where he called Netanyahu and his supporters “traitors” and used racist language to attack Sephardic Likud lawmakers.
Notably, the State Department funding began two years later, when there was no longer any doubt about MQG’s subversive role in Israeli society.
Perhaps Biden is driven by jealousy. Two-thirds of Israelis support judicial and legal reform. Two-thirds of Americans disapprove of Biden’s handling of immigration and inflation. A large majority of Americans disapprove of Biden’s handling of the economy, foreign policy and crime issues. Biden could only dream of having as broad a consensus of support for his policies as Netanyahu has for his.
“The State Department typically avoids bolstering partisan groups to avoid the appearance of political meddling.” WHAT A LOAD OF BULLSHEET! The State Department is run as if bin Laden was alive with ISIS. That’s how bad it is! They support and fund radical, anti-American terrorists countries and are destroying OUR country. Remember, these are the people who said “We will destroy their miserable house from within.” And they are doing just that with Bidens help!
When will anyone REALIZE that Islam has taken over our State Department, as well as Homeland Security, US Immigration and Citizenship Services, and many more!
Everyone is missing the BIG PICTURE! Have you ever learned or witnessed an Islamic takeover of a nation, or witnessed just the end of their conquering process? ANYONE? Unfortunately, even our Republicans that are trying to stop Biden and his Islamic terrorists don’t seem to know. I’m hoping they realize what Islam is doing and what’s going in the treasonous State Department, but are waiting until the right time!
I don’t understand…WHY DO THEY NOT SEE THIS? TOO BUSY? Uninformed?
This will bring a world war. All the western nations are being infiltrated by these IslamoNazis. The difference is, they don’t want just Jews, they want to remove all non-Muslims!
