Spielberg, who set up the Frankfurt-based foundation from the profits of his 1994 Oscar-winning film Schindler’s List, said he was donating the money because of the ongoing violence. “I understood that it isn’t about to end,” he told Maariv newspaper. “I have understood that the tragic reality existing today in Israel is almost permanent and there is no chance it will change in the near future.”
The money is to go to five different organisations whose main aim is to counsel and help the victims of Palestinian attacks and their families. Some funding will also be used to provide scholarships at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem that will be named after the nine people, including five Americans, killed in a Palestinian bombing in the university’s cafeteria
