IDF reservists call to investigate US funding promoting draft-dodging
[Jpost] Reservists on Duty, an anti-BDS group in Israel penned a letter to Israeli Ambassador to Washington Ron Dermer calling on him to investigate sources of US funding which support organizations that promote-draft dodging in Israel.The group called for the investigation following a letter published Thursday morning in which 63 youths from around the country openly declared their refusal to enlist in the IDF and encouraged other youth to do the same. The letter, first published by Israeli daily Yedioth Aharonot, was addressed to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman, Education Minister Naftali Bennett and IDF Chief of Staff Gadi Eizenkot. In their letter to the Ambassador, obtained by The Jerusalem Post, the group wrote: "The organization that sponsored and supported the creation and signing of this letter is called ’Mesarvot,’ roughly translated as ’dodging.’ Shockingly enough, this organization is financed by an American based organization called RSN [Refuser Solidarity Network]." According to the RSN website, the organization is a non-profit organization based in Washington DC that "provides a US base of support for those who refuse service in the Israeli military for reasons of political conscience." I wonder if our old pal Soros is behind it? Posted by: g(r)omgoru 2017-12-31 |
