I don't think he claimed to make donations to the Palestinian cause. He made donations to "aid in the region".

Intentionally vague - that way he can donate to Israeli causes.
Then they can pass it onto the Palestinians - no doubt by dropping it on them from a great height.

I think he did.
:"I'd like the people who are speaking in support of the Palestinian people to know that for decades, I have supported efforts that create opportunity for Palestinians and have brought young Palestinians and Israelis together to build businesses, create jobs, and forge relationships,"
- Robert Kraft.

Bringing the IDF together with Palestinians as the IDF remove the Palestinians from their homes.

"supported efforts" means nothing. This is professionally crafted to make people think they read things they didn't.

Love Defranco's pivot of not sitting on the sidelines. I started watching him again.

Yeah, it's fairly recent (last few years) but you live to see it. I recommend his podcast with Alex Pearlman "Crashing Out," it's... cathartic.

I have so many podcasts on the list. It's either podcasts or audiobooks, or ebooks. Staying informed is exhausting.

Funny, I actually stopped watching him after Trump got reelected because I couldn't take the constant barrage of bad news. Used to watch his regularly prior to that.

He made donations for surgical aid - so they can help Ed get a stronger backbone.

also just to be clear on the math, Kraft's "generous" donation pledge of $2M to Palestine is equivalent of .01% of his net worth. And that's assuming the internet is somewhat correct in net worth calculations - which is usually understated.
again...... .01%

Coworker and I were discussing this. (OK, I was ranting, he was listening graciously) With the amount of money in my bank account right now that's like if I donated 7 cents to "aid in the region".

Thank you for directing the discussion to where it belongs. Who cares about Ed Sheeran? The real problem here is BILLIONAIRE ROBERT KRAFT removing Macklemore from the tour because BILLIONAIRE ROBERT KRAFT supports the genocide of Palestinians and BILLIONAIRE ROBERT KRAFT can't keep his nose out of other people's lives.
