Israel Thought Their UK Charity Cover Was Safe; It Just Exploded

An Israeli NGO has been caught discussing help for Brits moving into illegal West Bank settlements - with a UK charity and Gift Aid angle added in too... Right, so Declassified UK have been doing some of that investigative journalism type stuff again, an alien concept to mainstream media mouthpieces of course, if they haven’t got their talking points served up to them on a plate all they’re left with is passive aggressive bias and a list of things about Israel that they are not allowed to say, but Declassified have now put a particularly grubby scandal on the record seemingly completely ignored by everyone else. An Israeli organisation called Shivat Zion, which publicly presents itself as a helpful support body for Jews moving from Britain and Western Europe to Israel, Aliyah, as Israel calls it, has been filmed discussing help for a British person moving to Efrat in the occupied West Bank, and Efrat is not Israel, Efrat is an illegal Israeli settlement on occupied Palestinian land. So that means the Shivat Zion sales pitch here is not simply about moving house, not just about some dodgy paperwork, and certainly has nothing at all to do with “community fit,” or anything like that, but about helping place a British citizen into a settlement that exists because Palestinian land has been taken, ringed with military protection, and the offered up to Zionists as the biblical home for Jews when its nothing less than colonialist thievery and anyone choosing to live in such sites are themselves tainted by that very same brush. But the British angle to all of this gets that much worse, because Shivat Zion was also presenting a UK donation route tied to Gift Aid through a UK registered charity called UK Toremet, a charity which provides grants via donors, providing funding for projects here in the UK or overseas.
