Sweden Funds Anti-Israel propaganda

Israel = No Apartheid

Israeli newspapers are carrying the story of how Sweden’s “humanitarian aid” has been channeled to a pro-Palestinian Authority solidarity group, and by that helped fund the publication of an anti-Israeli propaganda booklet. The book, called ” “Colonialism and Apartheid – the Israeli Occupation in Palestine”, was initiated by the group known as ”Palestina Grupperna i Sverige” (PGS, or Palestine Solidarity Association in Sweden).

The PGS is one of the largest pro-Palestinian groups in Sweden today, most notoriously known for frequently calling for boycotts of Israel as well as for spreading a variety of anti-Israeli propaganda. Therefore, this most recent propaganda exercise, does not come as a great surprise.  

PGS lists its financial support as coming from donors and the Swedish international aid authority, SIDA. This might be chocking to most Israelis but not to the readers of this blog. As we have reported before, Sweden is already funding Palestinian terrorists imprisoned in Israeli jails as well as other radical groups  in both the Gaza strip and the West bank.

Two articles about this anti-Israeli propaganda funded by Swedish taxpayers can be found in the here and here.
