False Allegations about Human Rights Watch’s Latest Gaza Report

On August 13, 2009, Human Rights Watch released a report, "White Flag Deaths: Killings of Palestinian Civilians during Operation Cast Lead," documenting serious violations of the laws of war by Israeli forces during Operation Cast Lead. Instead of responding to the findings of the report, Israeli officials are trying to discredit the report and Human Rights Watch by making false allegations.

"Instead of seriously addressing the findings of human rights groups in Gaza, the Israeli government is waging a propaganda war against them," said Iain Levine, program director at Human Rights Watch. "If the Israeli government wants to silence critics, it should fully investigate allegations of wrongdoing and take action to end the abuses."

* "Human Rights Watch is relying on the testimony from people who are not free to speak out against the Hamas regime." Mark Regev, spokesman for the Israeli prime minister, in an interview with the BBC, August 13, 2009.

* "The Human Rights Watch report which claims that IDF soldiers killed 11 Palestinian civilians holding ‘white flags' is based on unreliable witness reports." Israel Defense Forces (IDF) statement, August 13, 2009.

Both claims are false. Human Rights Watch methodology does not rely only on the accounts of victims and eyewitnesses. We examine medical records such as hospital and autopsy reports; forensic evidence left over from attacks, such as bullet casings, tank tracks or ammunition boxes; the attack sites themselves; and we conduct interviews with multiple witnesses, including medical staff and law enforcement, military and other officials and, where possible, the alleged perpetrators. Our interviews are conducted in private (unless otherwise stated) and confidentially. We carefully cross-check individual interviews with the interviews of other witnesses to assess reliability and consistency, and assess information we receive against accounts of the fighting made available by the IDF, Hamas combatant lists, and in the media.

Hamas is responsible for numerous and widespread human rights abuses in Gaza, but many Palestinians criticize Hamas practices during interviews with Human Rights Watch, most recently in our August 6 report on Qassam rocket attacks on Israel and our April 20 report on Hamas political violence. As Regev noted in an interview with Al-Jazeera, "It was Human Rights Watch that reported that Hamas members go around shooting in the kneecaps people who speak out of turn." This information, as the report noted, came from Palestinian witnesses in Gaza.

Human Rights Watch has had a permanent consultant based in Gaza since 2006. Israel continues to deny Human Rights Watch's other researchers access to Gaza.

* "Human Rights Watch's fundraising activities in Saudi Arabia in tandem with the kingdom's authoritarian government raises important questions as to that organization's objectivity, professionalism, integrity, and credibility." Regev, quoted by Agence France-Presse, August 13, 2009.

AIPAC slams Obama for honoring 'anti-Israel' ex-Irish president

Here we go again, the "LOBBY" slamming a man out for peace in the world. Now, if this Peace was only in the best interest of Israels government, then its ok! We are sick and tired of this LOBBY telling AMerica what is right and what is wrong, when in fact, THEY are wrong for calling anyone antisemitic because they say one little thing against Israel. Heck, the US, Europe takes much criticism, but we dont alienate the world by telling them they are haters because they criticized us.

The LOBBY needs to get beyond this and do whats right for the world. Not just THEM!
here's the story:

The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) on Tuesday slammed the Obama administration for its decision to give a former Irish president the presidential Medal of Freedom, saying they were "deeply disappointed" by the move.

In a statement, the pro-Israel group cited what it called Mary Robinson's "long public record of hostility and one-sided bias against the Jewish state" as making her unsuitable to receive the nation's highest civilian honor.

The statement cites Robinson's role in leading the "deeply flawed" UN Human Rights Commission (UNHRC) and for her supervision of the 2001 Durban Conference on Racism, which was boycotted by the United States and equated Zionism with racism.

The statement claims Robinson's conduct on the UNHRC was "deeply flawed" and "marred by extreme, one-sided anti-Israel sentiment", and cites a 2002 UNHRC vote that "sought to condone Palestinian suicide bombings and terrorism".

White House spokesman Robert Gibbs responded to AIPAC's criticism by saying that Robinson was being honored as the first female president of Ireland.

"She is somebody whom we are honoring as a prominent crusader of women's rights in Ireland and throughout the world," he said.

"There are statements that obviously she has made that the president doesn't agree with and that's probably true for a number of the people that the president is recognizing for their lifetime contributions."

Robinson - the first woman to serve as president of Ireland, is an honorary president of Oxfam International and serves as the chair of the Board of Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunizations.

She dismissed the criticism she had received from Jewish groups, saying "there's a lot of bullying by certain elements of the Jewish community".Here we go again, the "LOBBY" slamming a man out for peace in the world.... more

Amnesty International concludes Israel inflicted “wanton destruction” in the Gaza Strip

With the IRC, UN, and many other government and private organizations concluding and indicting Israel and that Israel has committed some serious war crimes, we may see some heads flying soon. Hamas was also indicted for some other crimes, but Israels crimes have topped the list as some of the worst atrocities ever.

How can most of the world be called a lier? Thats what Israel says. And Israel repeatedly does not cooperate with law enforcement of ANY kind.

heres the story-rest of it at link:

Amnesty International has said Israel inflicted “wanton destruction” in the Gaza Strip in attacks that often targeted Palestinian civilians during an offensive in December and January in the Hamas-run enclave.

The London-based rights group, in a 117-page report on the 22 days of fighting, also criticised the Islamist movement Hamas for rocket attacks on Israel, which it called “war crimes”.

Among other conclusions, Amnesty said it found no evidence to support Israeli claims that Gaza guerrillas deliberately used civilians as “human shields”, but it did, however, cite evidence that Israeli troops put children and other civilians in harm’s way by forcing them to remain in homes taken over by soldiers.

Amnesty International said some 1,400 Palestinians were killed in Israel’s Operation Cast Lead, including 300 children and hundreds of innocent civilians, a figure broadly in line with those from the Hamas-run Health ministry in Gaza and the independent Palestinian Centre for Human Rights.

The Israeli military put the Palestinian death toll at 1,166 of whom 295 were civilians. Thirteen Israelis were killed, including three civilians, during the offensive Israel launched with the declared aim of curtailing cross-border rocket attacks.

Accusing Israel of “breaching laws of war”, Amnesty said: “Much of the destruction was wanton and deliberate, and was carried out in a manner and circumstances which indicated that it could not be justified on grounds of military necessity.”

Israel and Hamas have both rejected accusations of war crimes. An Israeli military inquiry found no evidence of crimes. Israel has refused to cooperate with a United Nations inquiry that is now gathering evidence. The investigators were prejudiced against Israel from the outset, the government said.With the IRC, UN, and many other government and private organizations concluding and... more
