Boston Consulting Group says US-based staffers bypassed controls to help set up GHF |
2025-07-25 |
[IsraelTimes] An investigation commissioned by Boston Consulting Group has found that some of its US-based staff sidestepped its risk controls to do work related to the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation and to “post-war reconstruction” for the Palestinian enclave, the consulting firm says. That sounds like it was a passion project. BCG is lucky they’re getting paid instead of working pro bono or negotiated a contract that just covered expenses before they spun them off to avoid the cultural backlash. In a response to a British parliamentary committee inquiry published on Thursday, BCG details the role some of its staff played in establishing the GHF during late 2024 and early this year, and then the efforts made by one of its managing directors to carry out further work in March.The operations of the US- and Israel-backed GHF have been beset by violence and chaos, including deadly shootings of scores of Palestinians near its food distribution sites guarded by Israeli forces, Reuters has reported. The UN and other humanitarian groups have refused to work with GHF, questioning its neutrality and criticizing the new distribution model as dangerous. “We deeply regret that, in connection with the work about which the committee has asked, we did not live up to our standards,” BCG said in its July 22-dated response to the parliamentary committee inquiry. A “largely complete” review led by law firm WilmerHale had shown that “BCG’s approval processes were circumvented” by now-former BCG staff, the Boston-based management consulting firm said.

#1 It's (IMO) stupid to feed "Palestinians". They just turn food into kids who grow up to be terrorists. |
