Old habits die hard

Henry Ford was a rabid anti-Semite, so why should it surprise anyone that the charitable foundation he set up has the unfortunate habit of funding virulently anti-Israeli/anti-Semitic groups: http://www.jta.org/cgi-bin/iowa/news/article/20080723forddurban07202008.html. There was a lot of publicity about the Foundation's funding of several such groups at the oxymoronically-named 2001 Durban "anti-Racism" conference, and measures were supposedly put in place to prevent this from recurring. Well, either those measures have failed or they were never instituted in the first place, because the problems at the Foundation continue unabated.
