- Amira Hass on Israeli “Democracy”
I mean, I read the article [by HRW founder Richard Bernstein]. The word “occupation” does not appear there even one time. He says that Israel is a democracy of seven-million-point-something Israeli citizens. He forgets four million Palestinians, who have to be registered in the Israeli population registry in order to exist. All the Palestinians are [...]
- Moral Narcissism
B’Tselem, Breaking the Silence, the Public Committee Against Torture in Israel, Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, Haaretz and the international media – to Israelis, these have all fallen into the trash bin of the mendacious Palestinians. In the best case, they have become trapped in their own pure-hearted naivete, and in the worst, into collaborating [...]
- When Zionists Can’t Disprove Allegations, They Smear
“In terms of reports on Israel, HRW has a very serious bias and lack of credibility,” said Gerald Steinberg, who is president of of NGO Monitor and a professor at Bar-Ilan University in Ramat Gan. “They handle Israel differently than other countries because they have people writing the reports who operate with a lack of [...]

- Chemical Warfare Against Gazan Civilians
“Its suffocating and has a deadly poisonous smell that I am sure will cause a lot of sickness and disease on all of the civilians here,” he said. (more…)
- This is Zionism
Israel appears to be using WP as an “obscurant” (a chemical used to hide military operations), a permissible use in principle under international humanitarian law (the laws of war). However, WP also has a significant, incidental, incendiary effect that can severely burn people and set structures, fields, and other civilian objects in the vicinity on [...]
- This is Zionism
“With this ill-considered action, Israel put itself in the company of countries like Burma and North Korea in denying entry to UN human rights experts,” said Joe Stork, deputy director of Human Rights Watch’s Middle East division. “Strongly disagreeing with Professor Falk’s views is no good reason for denying him entry, treating him in a [...]
- The Taste of Freedom
Torture and other forms of abuse in Iraqi detention facilities, frequently to elicit confessions in early stages of detention, are well documented. The reliance on confessions in the court’s proceedings, coupled with the absence of physical or other corroborating evidence, raises the possibility of serious miscarriages of justice.
