"The controversy began last fall when the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, a news service, reported that Ford money had supported several groups that engaged in anti-Israel activities at a 2001 United Nations conference."

"Jewish groups reiterated this week that they consider the foundations' steps reasonable. They also emphasized that, as private entities, the foundations can attach any strings they wish to their contributions."
