The Zionist Federation of Australia's own annual report says it depends on the World Zionist Organization and Keren Hayesod for most of its revenue. Its chief executive, Alon Cassuto, spent two years suing journalist Mary Kostakidis over two tweets, then withdrew days before trial and claimed victory. Her lawyers say he achieved nothing. The same organisations fund Arnold Bloch Leibler's legal work, tax-deductible in Australia, and channel money through the Jewish National Fund to Keren Hayesod, the IDF and West Bank settlements.
