Dutch Government Funding Islamist Organization To Advocate Iranian Nukes, Protest Dutch Policy Of Not Engaging Hamas

Netherlands funding Islamist organizations

These people are either sublime geniuses or total rank incompetents:

The Dutch government is funding an anti-Israeli organization whose speakers advocate Iran's right to posses nuclear weapons, a Hague-based pro-Zionist lobby group stated Thursday in a report that it sent to the Netherlands foreign ministry. The scathing report that the Center for Information and Documentation Israel (CIDI) prepared of United Civilians for Peace (UCP) was written by Yonatan Bar-On... "UCP is one-sided and biased," Bar-On told Haaretz. "By saying that the Netherlands should engage in dialogue 'with all parties,' it is calling for speaking to Hamas, which runs contrary to the Hague's foreign policy. And that would have been fine, if it weren't for the fact that the Dutch government is paying for this group's actions."

In his report, Bar-On's quotes UCP spokesman Lambrecht Wessels as defending Iran's nuclear policies. "He wrote that Israel's occupation of the Palestinian territories is one of the threats that drive Iran to those policies," Bar-On says. The research also notes several occasions in which UCP sponsored people who advocated violence toward Israel and compared Israel to the Nazi occupation.

Of course it's going to look bad if you view it through the eyes of someone who expects governments not to undermine their own foreign policy by paying groups to demonize and scapegoat other countries. But if you look at this as typical cheap anti-Semitism anti-Zionism done in the name of international human rights, then it begins to look like something more comfortable and familiar. Which is to say, exactly like typical cheap anti-Semitism anti-Zionism done in the name of international human rights. [Photo]
