Controversy over Israel- and Palestine-related grants
RBF has faced criticism over grants to organizations involved in Palestinian advocacy, Israeli civil-rights work, BDS-related activity, and Middle East policy. Some critics have alleged that certain recipients have links to militant or politically controversial organizations. RBF has defended its grantmaking as support for human rights, peace, and equal dignity. The competing descriptions are politically contested and should not be treated as settled facts without reviewing the underlying grant records and reporting.
