European Commission's "Partnerships for Peace" Program Funds Conflict
[NGO Monitor] Many of the "civil society" organizations funded under the European Commission's Partnership for Peace Program are active participants in the Durban strategy that exacerbates the conflict and promotes campaigns against Israel. For example, European funding has been renewed for the tendentious activities of the Applied Research Institute Jerusalem (ARIJ), which labels its EC-funded project as "Monitoring Israeli Colonizing Activities." However, after eight years of funding, support for the radical Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions was not renewed. The EC had been ICAHD's main source of support.
