Report: Trump Donated Funds for Relocation of Evacuated Israeli Settlers

JNS.org — President-elect Donald Trump reportedly contributed money to help create new communities in Israel for settlers evacuated from the Sinai Peninsula and the Gaza Strip.

Due to the high cost of the evacuation project during Israel’s 2005 unilateral withdrawal from Gaza, the Israeli government reportedly sought assistance from numerous Jewish organizations such as the Jewish National Fund (JNF).

“We issued an appeal to all Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael (KKL) and JNF offices worldwide,” said Effie Stenzler, former chairman of the JNF, Israeli daily Yedioth Ahronoth reported Tuesday.

“KKL-USA sought donations in the US and one of them was sought from Trump, who is considered to be an avowed supporter of Israel, and he donated money toward the establishment of infrastructure in new communities,” Stenzler added.

Further, Trump donated towards helping Jewish evacuees from the Sinai Peninsula in the early 1980s, when Israel pulled out of the region as a result of the peace treaty it signed with Egypt in 1979.

According to Yedioth Ahronoth, Trump’s name appears on a plaque honoring the donors in the Hevel Shalom region, which absorbed evacuees from the Sinai and Gaza. While the exact figure of Trump’s donation for settlement evacuees is not cited, it is estimated to amount to millions of Israeli shekels.

More evidence that Trump has been blessed and favored from Heaven in return.

Oh great...he gave money to Jews. Now we have to kick him out of the KKK. /s

By the way...I hope the left notices that all the while they were hurtling anti-semitism charges at him Trump never mentioned any of this to defend himself.

That explains why the jihadists are accusing him of being Jewish now.

When you do good for someone just do it. I am a firm believer that your good deeds should never be publicly recognized. Sin of Pride.

“When you do good for someone just do it. I am a firm believer that your good deeds should never be publicly recognized. Sin of Pride. “

You have a point, for sure. But, the information is not being brought up by the Trump family or his staff or advisors. As far as I’ve been able to determine through a lot of examination, this additional information about the family’s quiet support of people in needs that has emerged in defence of Trump in the face of anti-Semitic lies, is coming from those who have benefitted from his kindness and generosity and know his family has been philanthropic in countless ways.

The information is NOT being generated from Trump or his family.

I’ve been tracking who has been posting the information and how it is getting disseminated in our quickly moving information world.
