EU๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ policy restricts funding to terror-linked NGOs.

We exposed EU's "clarification"that Palestinian terror affiliates wouldn't be affected.

Why would Europe support groups that promote violence? Is it OK as long as they're only going after #Israel? 1/n
2019 EU funding clause says money can't go to groups on EU terror list.

So multiple Pal NGOs launch campaign rejecting restrictions, claiming "resisting oppression by all means is legitimate"

March 2020 @EUpalestinians "clarified" terror restrictions don't apply to Pal NGOs 2/n
EU๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ Palestinian Rep @EUpalestinians claims EU funding restrictions only apply if a specific individual is designated

Yet multiple NGOs, including some NGOs campaigning against EU anti-terror restrictions, are linked to EU-designated terror groups 3/n

We've analyzed this report & it is #bizarre. @HRW says it's promoting #HumanRights but it's actually whitewashing #terror (1/n)
One #bizarre @HRW argument is that #HumanRights are violated by banning membership in #Hezbollah, #Hamas, #PFLP #terror groups!

HRW refers to a Hezbollah affiliate-member as an "artist" & a PFLP leader as a human rights expert. They ignore Qatar Charity's Hamas links. (2/n)
In a #bizarre implication that #WestBank should be annexed, @HRW points to #Israel-controlled #Jerusalem as an example for "less restrictive measures." (3/n)

1. For yrs, anti-#Israel NGOs have lobbied #Europe gov'ts for product labeling as a stepping stone to full-fledged #BDS.
2. We discovered that NGOs pushing for labeling ironically receive large funds from these same #Europe gov'ts. Why are gov'ts paying NGOs to lobby themselves? #Irony
3. A little background: In 2016,ย @fidh_en took credit for #France ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท gov't decision to label products.ย
