HRW "Apartheid" report destroyed by NGO Monitor

Although it took way longer than I would have liked, NGO Monitor released a thorough, line by line debunking of the Human Rights Watch 2021 report that accused Israel of "apartheid."No unbiased person can read the NGOM report and end up concluding that the HRW report has a shred of intellectual honesty.The HRW report is not just filled with errors.

The exact same playbook @Amnesty and @HRW took on "apartheid" can be used to accuse Israel of "genocide"

The path that Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch took to declare Israel guilty of "apartheid" can be used to claim that Israel is guilty of the crime of "genocide" against Palestinians.Sounds absurd? It isn't.The "apartheid" charge began in earnest at the NGO Forum of the World Conference against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance held...

In response to Goldberg's concern that there are those "who are glomming on to you guys as a cover, just...

Balancing Act (Vic Rosenthal)

The metropolitan area of about a million people, in almost the geographical center of the state, has only about 1000 Jewish families. There are three congregations: a Reform temple with several hundred members, a much smaller Conservative shul, and a Chabad house.I haven’t...
