So U.S. citizens get tax deductions for contributing to this organization that, according to Ha'aretz, funds political activities that directly contradict the goals of stated U.S. foreign policy? Why isn't the IRS looking into this already?
This charity is engaged in political activity

American Friends of Ateret Cohanim claims to fund educational institutions in Israel. As reported in the Israeli newspaper, Ha'aretz, all the money it collects goes to the political activities of establishing illegal settlements in territories occupied by Israel. Look for this charity to be under IRS investigation. For more information: http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1107975.html.

What is going on in America! Why has this not been stopped. Send the money to fund people in Tel Aviv or something!
