Titolo: la Ford si ritira?

la Ford Foundation, messa in piedi da Henry Ford (si', l'antisemita)
e' stata per lungo tempo una fonte di denaro a cui hanno attinto vari
gruppi antisemiti ed antisionisti. Ora il flusso di denaro si dirige
altrove...

With little fanfare, the Ford Foundation has initiated a phased
withdrawal from its long, largely behind-the-scenes campaign to
influence Israeli politics. News reports have focused mostly on the
foundation's 23-year-long patronage of the New Israel Fund (NIF),
whose beneficiaries include a number of pressure groups that colluded
with the now-discredited Goldstone Commission Report.
But Ford's involvement in Israel's affairs goes well beyond the NIF.
The foundation, today with $10.2 billion in assets, was created in
1936 by Edsel Ford, son of the automobile magnate, Nazi sympathizer,
and notorious anti-Semite Henry Ford.  Since then, it has disbursed a
staggering $16 billion in grants largely devoted to "progressive"
causes promoting "social change worldwide." In June 1967, the
foundation's head was McGeorge Bundy, former foreign-policy aide to
President Lyndon Johnson. On the very day Israel claimed victory in
the Six-Day war, Johnson recalled Bundy to the White House to help
coax Israel out of the just-liberated territories of Judea, Samaria,
and Gaza.
In hindsight, Bundy's involvement, though failing to produce any
tangible results, can be seen as driving the foundation's persistent
fixation on the Jewish state thenceforward.  Ford became a benefactor
of writers, researchers, and groups devoted to ending Israel's
"occupation" as a supposed oppressor state routinely brutalizing its
Palestinian Arab victims. By the 1980s, the foundation had helped
bankroll a campaign, the West Bank Data Project, to delegitimize
Jewish life beyond the Green Line.
The first declaration of a Palestinian state—by Yasir Arafat, in
Tunis, on November 15, 1988—followed a blueprint drafted by a Ford
grantee. Ford also supported the grand-sounding Institute for Middle
East Peace and Development, essentially a platform allowing its
founder, Stephen P. Cohen, to be cited incessantly by the New York
Times columnist Thomas Friedman as an "expert" calumniator of Israeli
policies.  Similarly, Ian Lustick, the intellectual godfather of
efforts to dissociate American Jewish backing for Israel from support
for its settlement and security policies, would also go on to work for
Ford.
The foundation remained on the periphery of an interlocking
directorate of agencies, including the Foundation for Peace in the
Middle East, that conducted a withering pressure campaign to force
Israel back to the 1949 armistice lines. Another agency, the now-
defunct International Center for Peace in the Middle East, provided a
front for disaffected Israeli and American Jews including Abba Eban
and Rita Hauser to lobby for precipitous U.S. recognition of Arafat's
PLO.
There is more. In 2001, Ford became a major funder of the Arab and far-
Left groups behind the UN-sponsored and virulently anti-Israel Durban
Conference. With a few degrees of separation, it also continued to
back the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) campaign against the
Jewish state. Whether by supporting innocuous-sounding agencies like
One Voice and the Peres Center for Peace, or by bankrolling
tendentious opinion surveys on behalf of the so-called Geneva
Initiative, Ford has contributed significantly to efforts at
undermining the possibility of reaching a negotiated solution. It has
also lent moral support to J Street as that organization takes
Lustick's crusade to re-define the term "pro-Israel" to ever more
grotesque extremes.
Looking back, Ford's directors may well feel vindicated. At the very
least, Ford's outlay has helped damage Israel's security, weakened its
international standing, and worsened its domestic divisions. More
particularly, the fund's heavy investment in stoking a multi-layered
campaign to force an Israeli withdrawal to the 1949 armistice lines—
irrespective of Palestinian belligerence—does indeed seem to have
gained inexorable momentum and, now, the evident backing of the Obama
White House.
Will Ford-supported enterprises like the New Israel Fund be able to
carry on alone after 2013? That will hinge on where things stand on
the day the foundation cuts the money line, and on how successful NIF
will be in continuing to obfuscate the activities of its dependent
agencies.
