Herland Report TV host, Hanne Nabintu Herland speaks with NGO Monitor, Gerald Steinberg about #Gaza aid dependency, corruption and #AidIndustry. SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/user/HanneNab... "The West has to stop patronizing, being neo-imperialistic. Aid needs to be weighed very carefully because it is a form of a drug, it is an addiction. It reinforces very dimension of the problems, the negative imaging, the negative social processes," says Gerald Steinberg, political scientist, professor at Bar-Ilan University, founder and president of NGO Monitor, a think tank focusing critically on the politicization of non governmental organizations.

"We need to see an end to this political censorship. How can we be free people in an intellectual society, when there are such important topics that we are not allowed to talk about? We are immediately accused of "racism" or other terms, in order to shut down an important discussion.

"Let's learn to talk about these issues and tolerate different views. That is not the same as hate speech, not the same as threatening or using violence. We should allow for a realistic analysis of what is actually going on."

"I see it so strongly, specifically in Norway, but also throughout Western Europe. When I look at Norwegian Government Aid Agencies, Norwegian Christian Agencies, and I look at how they function here in the Middle East, and I see how all of these aid-myths and distortions are in there. The patronizing, the neo-imperialism. So I say, use Foreign Aid very, very carefully."

"Don't let Foreign Aid become an industry and take responsibility. If you say you want to support peace and if it doesn't work, what are you going to do about it? If you brought violence and terrible suicide bombs, what do you do then? You cannot just walk away because you have parenthood on it. You have responsibility. So don't go into it unless you think about what will happen afterwards."

The Herland Report is a Scandinavian news site and TV channel on YouTube, reaching millions yearly, presenting leading intellectuals' view on foreign policy, current affairs, religion, the Middle East, Western decadence - free from political correctness.

The Herland Report believes in freedom of speech and its editorial policy resides above the traditional Left vs Right paradigm which we believe has lost its relevance and ability to describe the current driving forces in Western politics.
