“The rightist organization Im Tirtzu plans to distribute Tuesday to Knesset members a document it recently compiled with a list of ‘findings’ about the 25 non-profit organizations the Justice Ministry says will be affected by the NGO bill if it is passed by the Knesset. Among other demands, the bill would require them to disclose that a majority of their funding comes from foreign governments.
“In addition to the contention that a Palestinian foundation funded a Knesset lobbyist for one organization, Im Tirtzu’s position paper also attacks organizations that protested the difficulty of access to government archives as part of an alleged attempt to conceal records of human rights violations.”
