Haaretz, on the case:

Likud MK Ofir Akunis, who sponsored the bill to limit foreign funding to Israeli human rights organization, stood behind Senator Joseph’s McCarthy’s actions in the 1950s. Speaking on Sunday on the “London and Kirshenbaum” television show on Channel 10, Akunis said McCarthy – who in the 1950s presided over a committee that investigated Americans suspected of harboring Communist views – said “was right in every word, the fact is -there were Soviet agents.”

According to the bill, which was proposed by Akunis and has been backed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, political NGOs in Israel would not be allowed to receive donations exceeding 20,000 shekels provided by foreign governments and international organizations, such as the UN and the European Union.

will zionist political ngos in israel still be allowed to receive money from foreign governments and international organizations? allowed to do so even when this money is used to support terrorism against palestinians and their israeli/international supporters in gaza and the west bank?

“There were Soviet agents”. Indeed there were. And today, there are Israeli agents.

MY COMMENT: I challenge Likud MK Ofir Akunis to name each of the 57 “known Communists working for the State Department” Senator McCarthy said he had identified as of his Feb. 02, 1950 speech to the Republican Women’s Club of Wheeling, West Virginia.

…Does anyone in Israel have any sort of sense of irony? Stop me if I’m incorrect but wasn’t a significant amount of McCarthy’s anti-Communist hysteria… targeted at Jews?

“know Communists working for the State Deparment…”

Some claim that one of those Communists is Avigdor Lieberman himself. Perhaps he does not work for the State Department, but fairly close (Foregn Ministry).

In any case, traitors who engorged themselves on Norwegian kronor or pounds or Euros provided by such Radical Leftists like British Tories or German Christian Democrats are definitely part of world-wide Radical Left Democracy. As you see, without proper vigilance, Radical Left will take over Likud and Israel Beitenu and rule Israel to the diktat of Jihadist. Did you know the “turkey plot”? First, Radical Leftist Jihadists took over Butterball company (I think that Brosky family was involved, if they pose to be Orthodox Jews, it only show how invidious Leftist plots are) and then changed the rules of slaughtering turkeys to halal! And in secret, mind you.
