(NGO Monitor) Danish Minister of Foreign Affairs Anders Samuelsen is to announce on Thursday in Ramallah an additional $8.3 million in Danish funding to the Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law Secretariat, which distributes funds to numerous anti-Israel organizations. The Secretariat is a joint funding mechanism of the Danish, Dutch, Swedish, and Swiss governments, operating out of Bir Zeit University in the West Bank. A large portion of the Secretariat's budget is distributed to radical Palestinian NGOs that incite violence and terrorism; are active in global BDS campaigns against Israel; engage in legal warfare attempting to indict Israeli officials at the International Criminal Court; and employ demonizing rhetoric, accusing Israel of "apartheid" and "war crimes."
