NGO Monitor in the Media Spotlight Following ICC Attack - NGO Monitor

 

by NGO Monitor

Since the announcement earlier this week, NGO Monitor was featured in Newsweek, Times of Israel, the Jewish Insider, Kaan 11, Makor Rishon, and dozens of other platforms around the world.

 


As the NGO campaign escalated, our experts  briefed Members of Congress and European Parliamentarians. This past week, NGO Monitor Head of Research Yona Schiffmiller testified before Congress, detailing NGO efforts to attack Israel – and American interests.

The NGOs behind the campaign receive humanitarian and human rights funds provided by European governments, including: Germany, the European Union, Sweden, Denmark, Spain, Norway, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Switzerland, Belgium, France, Austria and the Netherlands.  

In the coming weeks, we will be traveling to Europe to discuss the damaging impact of their support for anti-Israel NGOs.

Research

For more than a decade, NGO Monitor has been meticulously researching the NGO campaign targeting Israel at the ICC – a core goal of the “Durban Strategy”.
 

See our publications:

The Role of NGOs in Supporting the International Criminal Court (ICC) Investigation
May 23, 2024

Importantly, as part of the NGO Durban Declaration and accompanying BDS campaigns, advocacy organizations have sought to turn the ICC into a court of universal jurisdiction. Like their exploitation of the UN and other international frameworks, these NGOs seek to use the ICC for demonization and to brand Israeli officials as “war criminals.”


Behind the ICC Prosecutor’s Narrative: The NGOs that Pushed the “Starvation” Libel in October
May 21, 2024

On May 20, 2024, International Criminal Court (ICC) Prosecutor Karim Khan announced that he was pursuing arrest warrants against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant. Khan alleged that both “bear criminal responsibility” for the war crime of “starvation of civilians as a method of warfare.” Many anti-Israel NGOs initiated the “starvation as a weapon” narrative immediately following Hamas’ brutal assault on October 7.

 


Gaza Lawfare: Anti-Israel NGOs Abuse Courts in Pursuit of “Genocide” Charges
January 14, 2024

In the aftermath of the barbaric Hamas massacre of October 7, rather than use law and international justice frameworks to support the victims of the atrocities, supposed human rights NGOs have sought to use lawfare to spread anti-Israel propaganda and to target allied support for Israel in an effort to harm the IDF’s ability to defeat Hamas.
