๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Tommy Robinson was reinstated to X at a time when Zionists are trying to win support for Israel among the political right in the West.

Let's take a look at who has funded Robinson in the past ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿงต

1/8

2/8 An investigation by the Guardian reported a number of groups that funded Robinson's legal fees and helped support his activism: Middle East Forum, Robert Shillman, Australian Liberty Alliance, Rebel Media, Gatestone Institute and the David Horowitz Freedom Center.

3/8 The Middle East Forum is a pro-Israel think tank founded by Jewแป‹sh Zionist Daniel Pipes.

It is headed by a former employee of the Israeli ministry of military affairs, Greg Roman.

4/8 Tommy Robinson benefited from a "Shillman fellowship", a program run by tech billionaire Robert Shillman.

Shillman is a board member of Friends of the Israel Defense Forces.

5/8 The Gatestone Institute is another pro-Israel think tank, formerly headed by John Bolton.

Its founder is Nina Rosenwald - an ultra Zionist who has spent her life working for Zionist causes. She also serves on the board of the Israeli Institute for National Security Studies.

6/8 The David Horowitz Freedom Center was created by Jewแป‹sh neoconservative David Horowitz, author of "Why Israel is the Victim"

7/8 Under his Shillman fellowship, Robinson was employed by Ezra Levant at Rebel Media.

Rebel has encouraged trips to Israel for its staff, and Lauren Southern revealed recently that she left the company because of how aggressively they insisted she push pro-Israel messaging.

8/8 While working at Rebel, Tommy became a regular collaborator with Avi Yemeni, who began to describe himself as Tommy's "official spokesperson."

Yemeni is an Israeli based in Australia who previously served in the IDF.
