(JNS-Israel Hayom) Jonathan S. Tobin - The influence of terror organizations in Palestinian society is so pervasive that it would be shocking if most Palestinian NGOs weren't linked to them. The purpose of these NGOs is not to make the lives of Palestinians better. If it were, they would be advocating for peace, not the destruction of the Jewish state, as all do. They would be building the infrastructure of Palestinian society and trying to make their own government more accountable and less corrupt. Palestinians who actually care about creating a civil society would be seeking to promote normalization and cooperation with Israel, not opposing it and treating those who seek peace as traitors. Well-meaning Americans hear the words "civil society" and "human rights," and make unfounded assumptions. But the tunnel vision of the human-rights community in attacking Israel, the one pluralistic democracy in the region, while ignoring real human-rights catastrophes elsewhere, is telling. It's long past time for those who care about human rights to reject the scam being perpetrated by those who parade under that banner. 2021-10-28 00:00:00Full Article
