New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft has been touting his decades-long support for Palestinian causes, but recent analysis reveals he has actually been funding organizations closely tied to Israel. Since 2006, Kraft's Kraft Family Foundation has donated over $300,000 to Friends of the IDF and other groups that benefit Israeli military personnel.
These donations include $123,000 to pro-Israel advocacy organizations and $63,500 to CAMERA, a right-wing media watchdog group known for its anti-Palestinian stance. Despite Kraft's claims to promote dialogue between Israelis and Palestinians, his donations appear to primarily serve Israeli interests rather than Palestinian ones.
