The real root cause is, and always has been, Jew-hatred. @Amnesty doesn't combat it - it encourages it.

Amnesty USA tweeted a short slideshow in the wake of the ceasefire in Gaza. Here is one particularly disgusting slide:The three examples they give are for Amnesty reports accusing Israel of apartheid and genocide.To Amnesty, Jews are the ones really responsible for Hamas attacking on October 7. Every time a group like Amnesty speaks about root causes, it is to justify...

Perfect: @Amnesty "human rights group" punishes employee free speech - but only from Jews

Amnesty's "genocide" report: a blood libel against Israel

Amnesty International has issued a 296 page report that attempts to prove that Israel is engaging in genocide in Gaza.Throughout the report, the assumption of guilt is a given. Every piece of "evidence" that supports the lie is highlighted as true, and every piece of counter-evidence is dismissed as unimportant.The report tries to prove that Israel has the intent of destroying...

Egypt denies more Gaza medical permits than Israel ever did. NGOs who issued reports condemning Israel are silent.

The hypocrisy of so-called human rights groups is more apparent every day of this war. In 2017, five of those NGOs released yet another statement condemning Israel for denying or delaying medical treatment for many Gazans. The record-low rate of permits issued by Israel for Palestinians seeking vital medical treatment outside Gaza underlines the urgent need for Israel...

Amnesty campaigning on behalf of a despicable terrorist (update)

From Amnesty International:The Israeli authorities should release Walid Daqqah, a terminally ill Palestinian prisoner, so he can access specialist medical care and spend his remaining time with his family, Amnesty International said today. Walid Daqqah, 62, suffers from chronic lung disease and bone marrow cancer, and the clinic at Israel’s Ayalon Prison is ill-equipped to...

Amnesty's position on "freedom of expression" in films is curiously one-sided

Today, Amnesty International tweeted this:Amnesty is saying that banning a movie is a violation of freedom of expression. Amnesty is against all forms of censorship - the allegation that the movie promotes homosexuality does not seem to be the issue at all, just freedom of expression.However, when Lebanon bans movies for having Israeli actors or producers, Amnesty has not...

No, Israel is not hamstrung to only using a "law enforcement" paradigm in Jenin under international law

Call the police!Last week, the UN’s High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Turk condemned the Jenin operation, saying that some of the methods and weapons used “are more generally associated with the conduct of hostilities in armed conflict, rather than law enforcement."“The use of airstrikes is inconsistent with rules applicable to the conduct of law enforcement...

Amnesty claims to support free speech - but it has censored Zionist voices in its own spaces

Amnesty International tweeted on Saturday:Reminder: Everyone has the right to freedom of expressionReally?Because on more than one occasion, Amnesty showed exactly how little it cares about freedom of expression.Amnesty provides various spaces for rent in its London offices. There are no policies listed on its webpage saying who is allowed to rent their space. Yet in 2018,...
