[Excerpt:]

"NGO Monitor’s latest research project documents the role of "highly politicized NGOs in the narrative wars that seek to distort and rewrite 3000 years of Jewish history in Jerusalem." According to NGO Monitor, which is based in the Israeli capital, "organizations such as B’tselem, Ir Amim and Applied Research Institute Jerusalem (ARIJ) who receive funds from the European Union ostensibly in order to promote coexistence, are primarily using their resources to promote an overtly anti-Israel agenda. "Ignoring the ancient Jewish presence in the Old City’s Jewish Quarter, disrupted only by their eviction and the Jordanian occupation between 1948-67, B’tselem and Ir Amim erroneously label residents of the neighborhood as ‘settlers’, in order to strengthen their political campaign against the return of the Jewish population," NGO Monitor said."
