The Clintons Earned Over $3.5 Million in Paid Addresses to Pro-Israel
Organizations
By Sarah Lazare [1], Max Blumenthal [2] / AlterNet [3]
February 11, 2016
Bill and Hillary Clinton are under increasing scrutiny from the mainstream
press over paid speeches they have given to big banks in exchange for
millions of dollars. According to [4] CNN, the couple has earned a total of
$153 million in lecture fees from companies and organizations affiliated
with the financial industry.
But the media has been conspicuously silent about the large sums the
Clintons have raked in from paid addresses to pro-Israel organizations,
including the Jewish National Fund (JNF), which directly participates in the
ethnic cleansing of Palestinians and Bedouin citizens of Israel. An
evaluation of Hillary Clinton's public disclosures [5] from 2001 to 2015
shows that she and Bill, and their daughter, Chelsea, have earned roughly $4
million in speaking fees from pro-Israel organizations, including JNF and
organizations allied with the right-wing government of Israeli Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The vast majority of these documented
payments-$3,599,999-have gone toward the Clintons' personal income, and up
to $450,000 has been funneled into the Clinton Foundation.
Ramah Kudaimi, membership outreach coordinator for the U.S. Campaign to End
the Israeli Occupation, told AlterNet, "It is the right of voters to know
what every single candidate earns in speaking fees, whether from banks or
pro-Israel groups that engage in oppressive policies against Palestinians.
It is the voters' right to know if we have candidates running to be
president who plan to continue horrific U.S. policies that make us all
complicit in Israel's denial of Palestinian rights."
The Wages of Blaming Palestinians
Bill Clinton's presidency ended with the collapse of the U.S.-led peace
process at Camp David in 2000. After leaving office, Clinton publicly blamed
[6] Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat for the failure of
negotiations, explicitly violating a promise [7] he made to Arafat at the
start of the Camp David process. The former president thus reinforced
then-Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak's infamous talking point that there
was "no Palestinian partner" for peace.
Bill Clinton declared [8] in the summer of 2002, at the Toronto chapter of
the pro-Israel group Hadassah-WIZO, "If Iraq came across the Jordan River, I
would grab a rifle and get in the trench and fight and die," reportedly
earning wild applause from attendees of the $1000-a-plate dinner. According
to a New York Post reporter in attendance, Clinton again blamed Palestinians
for his failure at Camp David, "accusing Arafat of making a 'disastrous
mistake' by turning down past peace proposals that would have given the
Palestinian leader control of 97 percent of the West Bank." Clinton earned
$125,000 for the speech.
Payments From Obama's Opponents
Bill Clinton received $425,000 for two speeches to Friends of the Simon
Wiesenthal Center, a right-wing group that generally supports the Likud-run
government of Benjamin Netanyahu and is hostile to Democrats. Simon
Wiesenthal Center president Marvin Hier, who addressed [9] the 2000
Republican National Convention, has compared [10] President Barack Obama to
Neville Chamberlain and described the Iran nuclear deal as "another Munich."
In 2011, three years before Bill Clinton's second paid speech before the
organization, Hier accused [11] then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton of
"a sell out" to anti-Semitism for opening diplomatic discussions with
Egypt's democratically elected Muslim Brotherhood.
While unmentioned in public disclosures, the Clinton Foundation website
notes [12] that the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, the main arm
of America's pro-Israel lobby, contributed between $10,001 and $25,000 to
the organization for at least one speech delivered by Bill Clinton, with the
exact date or amount paid unspecified. S. Daniel Abraham, the Slim Fast diet
mogul who serves on the board of AIPAC, has given [13] as much as $5 million
to the Clinton Foundation. Through a series of front groups, ad campaigns
and Israel propaganda tours for freshman members of Congress, AIPAC spent
upward [14] of $40 million last year in a failed attempt to derail the Obama
administration's Iran nuclear deal.
Among the Clintons' pro-Israel speaking fees, only one was received from an
organization that could be classified as part of Israel's peace camp. The
Abraham Fund [15], which says its aim is to "promote coexistence and
equality among Israel's Jewish and Arab-Palestinian citizens," paid Bill
Clinton $125,000 for a single speech in 2002.
Chelsea Clinton raked in as much as $325,000 in speaking fees from the
United Jewish Appeal and its affiliate, the Jewish Federations, a pro-Israel
umbrella group of Jewish American establishment organizations that actively
combats [16] the Palestinian-led BDS (boycott, bivestment and sanctions)
movement. She remits 100 percent of her speaking fees to the Clinton
Foundation, where she is a board member and helps decide how the foundation
spends its $180 million annual budget.
Bill Clinton took in six-figure lecture fees from pro-Israel [17] synagogues
[18] around the country [19]. Our calculations include only Jewish
instutions whose pro-Israel programming could be identified; we excluded
hundreds of thousands of dollars in speaking fees paid to the Clintons by
Jewish instutions whose online materials do not explicitly promote Israel.
In addition, Bill Clinton received $250,000 for a speech to Univision
Management Company, the media corporation co-owned by pro-Israel billionaire
Haim Saban. As AlterNet's Grayzone Project recently reported [20], Saban and
his wife Cheryl contributed $5 million to the pro-Hillary Clinton super PAC,
Priorities USA Action, this February. Saban has also contributed [13]
between $5 and $10 million to the Clinton Foundation. "I'm a one-issue guy,
and my issue is Israel," Saban said in 2004.
Whopping Fees From Ethnic Cleansers
Public records show that Bill Clinton earned a total of $549,999 in four
speeches to the JNF. The disclosures do not mention the JNF's most generous
fee. JNF provoked an outcry within pro-Israel circles when it transferred
[21] half a million dollars to the Clinton Foundation through the Peres
Academic Center to pay for a single speech by Bill Clinton. Bill Clinton
later said he donated [22] his large fee back to the Peres Academic Center,
but there are lingering questions [23] about where all the money went,
including funds from the JNF.
Formed in 1901, JNF has spent over a century driving Palestinians off their
land, including through the creation of the paramilitary force
euphemistically named [24] the Green Patrol. Former JNF director Yosef Weitz
outlined detailed plans [25] for the mass ethnic cleansing of Palestinians
in 1948, demanding that their villages be destroyed and they "be harassed
continually" to prevent them from returning.
In recent years, JNF has teamed up with the Israeli military, police and
Christian Zionist donors [26] to violently expel the residents of
unrecognized Bedouin villages in Israel's Negev Desert. Among them is Al
Arakib, which as of October 2015, has been razed to the ground a staggering
90 times [27].
Video below by Max Blumenthal, a co-author of this article, shows the
destruction of Al Arakib by Israeli bulldozers in 2010 - the third time it
was demolished - in order to make way [28] for a JNF-funded "forest" and
Jews-only town. The JNF is widely opposed in Palestinian civil society and
controversial even within Israel, where it owns roughly 13 percent [23] of
state land and vows to lease it to exclusively Jewish tenants.
Will Hillary Honor Her Commitments?
Hillary Clinton has made her unflinching support for Israel a centerpiece of
her foreign policy agenda. In November 2015, she promised [29] to "reaffirm"
the "unbreakable bond with Israel, and Benjamin Netanyahu," suggesting she
would adopt a friendlier posture to Israel's right-wing leader than Obama
had.
In a July 2015 letter [30] to mega-donor Haim Saban, which her campaign
distributed to the press, Clinton declared "we need to make countering BDS a
priority." It was the first time in American history that a presidential
candidate mentioned by name the grassroots movement to boycott Israel.
As the challenge to her primary candidacy from Senator Bernie Sanders grows,
Hillary Clinton is tacking left. During her concession speech in New
Hampshire, Clinton insisted to local supporters, "I believe so strongly that
we have to keep up with every fiber of our being the argument for, the
campaign for human rights."
Whether a Clinton presidency would alter the U.S.-Israeli special
relationship remains to be seen. But as long as she honors the wishes of her
family's top contributors, as she has pledged to do, her argument for human
rights must exclude Palestinians.
The following list shows Bill and Hillary Clinton's personal income from
speaking fees to pro-Israel groups between 2001 and 2015, based on public
disclosures.
The following list shows the Clintons' speaking events to pro-Israel groups,
which were compensated by payments to the Clinton Foundation. The
Foundation's website does not provide information about the exact date of
the engagements or the amount given.

The Clintons Earned Over $3.5 Million in Paid Addresses to Pro-Israel
