Jewish Leaders Denounce Anti-Israel Report by Human Rights Watch
(Conference of Presidents) The Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations said Tuesday: "We strongly reject the disgraceful report released today by Human Rights Watch (HRW) that attempts to demonize, delegitimize, and apply double standards to the State of Israel." "These kinds of misguided efforts to vilify Israel inflame existing tensions and incite violence, obstructing the path to peace and the resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. HRW should be denounced for giving voice to such vicious hate while purporting to defend human rights."
