Palestinians are being persecuted from their homes in an ongoing genocide. Due to the armed actions of Israel, they lack access to essentials such as food, water, electricity and medical care.
In response to this crisis, all proceeds from the Palestinian Relief indie bundle will be donated to the PCRF (Palestine Children’s Relief Fund). PCRF describes itself as “the primary humanitarian organization in Palestine, delivering crucial and life-saving medical relief where it is needed most”. By donating to the PCRF, Palestinians will have better access to medical relief, food and water.

It’s very disappointing to see this site funnel funds towards a highly questionable organization with close ties to Hamas and other terrorist organizations:
https://www.ngo-monitor.org/ngos/palestine_children_s_relief_fund_ohio_/
Wikipedia states that NGO Monitor’s focus is to “End promotion of ‘politically and ideologically motivated anti-Israel agendas’ by certain NGOs,” that they report “on international NGO activity from a pro-Israel perspective,” and that a former online communication editor employed with the group was indefinitely banned for biased editing. Personally I’m more inclined to trust a Wikipedia article with 75 sources unless there is substantial evidence to the contrary.
Yes and check the page of the founder & president of NGO Monitor, Gerald Steinberg:
Ngo monitor is right wing bullshit with zero credibility.
Critical thinking is not your forté my man.
I’m usually accused of questioning things too much and overdoing it, so I’m not sure what to make of your attempt at trying to insult me.
I also find it peculiar that none of you decided to actually read the page and the many individual pieces of evidence that support the claim that this supposed aid organization has fundamental issues, but instead shoot the messenger (either me or NGO Watch).
Don’t you do some background checks on the sources you read & quote? Or do you tend to follow the herd? Here’s some info from Wikipedia on the founder & president of NGO Monitor, Gerald Steinberg:
Imagine how hateful and depraved you would have to be to pay tons of money to Google Ads to promote your page and agenda to deceptively block people from donating money to those in need. That’s NGO Monitor and that’s what you’re supporting.
Edit: I’m sure you’re also very interested to find out the facts behind Israel’s accusations of UNRWA workers so here’s the latest:

It’s very disappointing to see someone come to a post about a game bundle to support Palestine only to uncritically surface claims from a site with a blatant pro-Israel, pro-Zionism bias. Zionism and Judaism are not the same thing. Zionism is a sect of Judaism characterized by an extreme ethnic nationalist doctrine (with expected bedfellows). NGO Monitor repeats the utter nonsense that being Anti-Zionist or Anti-Israel is somehow anti-Semitic. It’s not - the earliest anti-Zionists were Jews. The idea that being against or critical of Zionism is the same as being racist against Jews is an absurd fiction pushed by Zionist foreign policy in order to insulate Israel from all forms of criticism; sadly, it seems to be working. In any case, I’m not inclined to believe one word printed by NGO Monitor where Israel or Palestine are involved.
