"In Israeli politics, it has been the year of Im Tirtzu – the media-savvy Zionist students' movement that managed to create a true stir with a February campaign that exposed the New Israel Fund's dastardly doings before the Israeli public.
The campaign targeted NIF chair Naomi Chazan and received high-profile news coverage. Im Tirtzu's research focused on the NIF's complicity in the Goldstone Report that attacked the IDF for its 'Cast Lead' Gaza operation. The NIF came under fire in Israel and in Jewish communities worldwide. Used to being ignored by the leftist media and to waging losing battles, Zionist pundits were ecstatic at the new movement's successes.
A few months later, Im Tirtzu was back with another report – this time about the overwhelming proportion of radical leftists in Ben Gurion University's Political Science Department. Again, the media was full of the story."
