Israel’s survival, from 1948 to this day, has come at a huge cost for those who live in the Jewish State and even those Jews still living abroad.
Egged on by the surrounding Arab nations who attempted to wipe out those who live in the Jewish homeland, “Palestinian” Arabs who hate Jews and their supporters to this day mark what they refer to as the “Nakba” — catastrophe, in Arabic: the establishment of the modern-day State of Israel.
The so-called “Nakba Day” is still marked annually on May 15, with non-governmental organizations (NGOs) rallying and demonstrating to demonize Israel’s very existence.
In recent years, particularly after October 7, 2023, NGOs in Israel and abroad have taken a leading role in Nakba Day events calling for the dismantlement of Zionism and Israel, as well as full arms embargoes against the Jewish state.
Ahead of Thursday’s “Nakba Day” protests, the NGO Monitor watchdog organization has released a new report exposing how radical NGOs, many with links to designated terror groups, are driving coordinated anti-Israel actions across the United States, Europe, Canada, and at the United Nations.
The report maps this year’s protests and events, including calls to “dismantle the Zionist entity,” chants supporting Hamas, and NGO-backed efforts to impose global arms embargoes on Israel.
“This is the product of 77 years of incitement,” notes NGO Monitor Founder and President Prof. Gerald Steinberg.“
“Morally bankrupt NGOs claiming the mantle of ‘human rights’ are exploiting ‘solidarity with Palestinians’ to spread propaganda and incite hatred against Jews.”
On May 15–16, 2025, the UN Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People (CEIRPP) is set to convene a conference titled “International Action Towards Ending the Nakba and Realizing the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People.”
According to the agenda, the conference will feature presentations from NGOs, UN Special Procedures, and legal professionals on efforts to “hold Israel accountable for its war crimes, crimes against humanity, and acts of genocide in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem.”
The conference will contain a plenary session with Belgium-based NGO Hind Rajab titled “Best Practices to Bring Accountability and End the War: Recent Civil Society Legal Actions and Arms Embargo.” Hind Rajab is a pro-terror NGO that pursues Israeli soldiers around the world, having filed complaints against Israeli soldiers in Ecuador, Belgium, UAE, Brazil, Argentina, Sri Lanka, France, Netherlands, Cyprus, Thailand, and the UK.
Jacob “Jake” Romm, Hind Rajab’s US representative is speaking on the NGO’s behalf.
On March 27, 2025, Romm tweeted, “Hamas is the only group meaningfully working to return the hostages. If you wear the dumb yellow ribbon you should also pop on the green headband for consistency, because they’re your only allies in that fight.”
On March 7, 2025, Romm tweeted, “Ansar Allah [Houthis] is the only group in the world that is treating the Genocide Convention and the principle of the Responsibility to Protect with sufficient respect that they are a designated ‘terror’ group by the US should tell you something about the structure of international law.”
