“AFDI Rolls Out New Ad Campaign to Expose Jewish Leaders Who Fund BDS”, 04 March 2015, By JLNJ Staff
The human rights advocacy group, The American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI) has announced a new ad campaign to expose Jewish groups and leaders who are funding Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) campaigns. This campaign is intended to bring awareness to their activities and urge them to stop harming the Jewish State of Israel.
Jewish leaders and philanthropists including UJA-Federation President Alisa Doctoroff, Karen R. Adler (President of the Jewish Communal Fund and JCRC Board Member), David Hochberg, Carole and Saul Zabar, Sally Gottesman, Edith Everett and others are prominent donors to The New Israel Fund, an organization which funds BDS and other anti-Israel initiatives.
Of particular concern is the fact that Doctoroff uses her position at UJA to promote the agenda of the New Israel Fund, a hard-left organization that is aiding and abetting BDS initiatives.
AFDI’s President Pamela Geller said in a statement: “We must shame these philanthropists who fund BDS groups – particularly the New Israel Fund. An intense public campaign has begun. We will continue to demand that any American Jew who supports the New Israel Fund withdraw such funding. The New Israel Fund must be ostracized by the Jewish community.”
These ads will make their debut on 100 buses in New York, with new ads appearing every month. AFDI plans to run them also in other cities where Jews are being targeted by BDS initiatives, including Chicago, Boston, and others.

Thank you, Pam. Traitorous activity. All Jews, no matter their politics, will be slaughtered if Israel is overcome. Stop funding your own destruction.
Israel can never be overcome.
It is much stronger and determined than its enemies – who out of frustration kill each other. Eventually Western Civilization will come to its senses and SMASH Islamofascism.
This is like an internal matter of the Jewish community, not NY’ers generally. Why put it on public buses?
What makes this a general problem?
9/11, 1993 truck bombing of the WTC, Fort Hood, Boston Marathon, London transport, beheading of Lee Rigby, Beslan, Bamiyan, ISIS, Al Qada, Boko Haram, Taliban, Fascist Iran, Charlie Hebdo, Ottawa, Paris, Sydney, Bali, Madrid, Luxor…
We need ro monitor our local federations. Be certain federation dues are not going to the No Israel Fund
Please post a comprehensive list of BDS traitors and Bibi boycotters. Many of us can connect the individuals to local issues and then get these capos local news exposure so the half awake voters will notice.
There is an excellent book by Edwin Black called Financing the Flames – Slams New Israel Fund and how tax-exempt and public money fuel a culture of confrontation and terror in Israel.
His reporting was especially insightful in showing the frustration caused by New Israel Fund-funded groups that pick fights with Israeli soldiers to engender violent responses that can be caught on camera and used to further vilify the Jewish state.
Many donor funds use the money to pay salaries to convicted muslim terrorists in Israeli jails.
There is a place in hell waiting for the donors of the New Israel Fund.
G-d bless Israel the only democracy in the mideast.
Excellent! These ads will reveal the truth about the New Israel Fund so no one will be fooled by the NIF and the Jewish donors will be exposed for the traitors to the State of Israel that they are. The New Israel Fund donors harm Israel and Israeli children.
Thank you! However, won’t they sue AFDI?
They cannot sue AFDI for the truth. All these traitors donate to NIF so what can they sue for ? The truth?
Shame on Doctoroff and Jewish Communal Fund most of all
Lord have mercy on them for they are deceived!
These ones who fund BDS are the ones who call them selves Jews but they are not….
Anybody that has a AFDI member as a friend or family must cut ties with them, even if its their own family. Do not give them one cent for; college, cars, food, cloths.
Pamela Geller: One of the bravest humans on the face of this Earth!
I agree 100%. Let’s hope Pam’s bravery inspires and gives courage to more people to speak out.

The New Israel Fund, “acts against Israel—against the soldiers of Israel.
People need to recognize the New Israel Fund for what it is. It is supported by foreign governments and organizations so that Israeli soldiers will be weakened.” They are political.” The New Israel Fund claims to benefit Israeli society but in reality it hampers the ability of military to perform their duties and acts on behalf of those who attempt to de-legitimize Israel.
Henry Ford was a major promoter of the forgery of the Elders of Zion and to this day did more to vilify Jews.
The Ford Foundation announced it was creating the “Ford Israel Fund” for a new pool of money to be channeled into an organziation called the “New Israel Fund”.
The Ford Foundation funded a notorious hate campaign against Israel.
Edwin Black’s book connects the New Israel Fund to the historic Anti-Semite Henry Ford Foundation for anti-Israel activism and attempts to de-legitimize Israel.
Pamela, we love you!
