In addition to being a part of the story below concering the US Congress resolution on Jewish refugees, Representative Nadler has also been paying attention to the recent expose concerning the Ford Foundation's funding links to anti-Semitic and anti-Israel groups.

US Congressmen urge Ford Foundation to cease funding subversive Palestinian groups

Seventeen members of the US House of Representatives are signatories to a letter urging the Ford Foundation to halt funding to groups that promote anti-Semitism and anti-Israel hate.

Drafted by Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), the letter, addressed to Ford Foundation president Susan Berresford, was written after an investigation by the Jewish Telegraphic Agency found that the foundation provided millions of dollars to groups that promoted the destruction of Israel at the 2001 UN Conference Against Racism in Durban, South Africa, and it demands an immediate public review of grantees' activities.

The list of signatories includes 16 Democrats and one Republican.

Where were you on this Republicans? In fact, I wonder why there weren't more Congresspeople in on this?
