Days of Palestine, Geneva –The so-called ‘UN Watch’ which pretends to be independent was revealed to have received frequent funds from the Israeli government.
The NGO, which claims to be independent and briefing body for UN member states, is reportedly functioning as a forefront for the Israeli occupation to improve its distorted image due its many bloody aggressive wars in the Middle East.
A well-informed source revealed to Days of Palestine that the NGO received funds estimated by $700,000 only for 2014/15.
Established in 1993, the NGO, which was known as the Wednesday Watch, describes itself as a non-governmental organisation whose mandate is to monitor the performance of the United Nations by the yardstick of its own Charter. It calls itself human rights promoter.
However, the content of its reports tell another thing. It only attempts to whitewash the Israeli crimes and law violations.
Our credible and exclusive, based in Geneva, added: “We have certain information that the NGO named ‘UN watch’ is reporting to the Israeli intelligence and coordinate directly with the Israeli foreign ministry to shield Israel at the United Nations platforms.”
The so-called independent NGO is mainly run by a young Canadian lawyer called Hillel Neuer, a very controversial figure, who was arrested in the US for carrying unlicensed weapons.
Israeli well-known newspaper Maariv newspaper recently named Neuer to its list of the Top 100 Most Influential Jewish People in the World.
He holds a LL.M. in comparative constitutional law from the Israeli Jewish Hebrew University in occupied Jerusalem. He served as a law clerk for Justice Itzhak Zamir at the Supreme Court of Israel.
Neuer is reported to have met members of the Israeli intelligence in Geneva and coordinated different campaigns against Latin American countries, as well as China and some Arab states.
