(NGO Monitor) The Human Rights Watch report condemning recent Israeli security actions in Gaza reflects unverifiable Palestinian allegations and unsubstantiated security judgments. For example, HRW claims that IDF actions were taken despite the absence of "military necessity," ignoring hundreds of rockets fired by Gaza Palestinians at Israeli towns. HRW's report stands in stark contrast to its minimalist approach to terrorism. In the past four years, HRW has issued over 100 reports, press releases, and other condemnations of Israeli defensive actions, in contrast to a handful of low-profile reactions to terror. HRW reports on Israel lack substantive credibility and are driven by a clear and consistent political and ideological agenda. Beyond contributing to the destruction of human rights norms and demonization of Israel, this agenda also diverts attention from genuine human rights catastrophes, such as in Sudan, which has received far less attention from HRW. 2004-10-20 00:00:00Full Article
