Amnesty’s Credibility Problem

Amnesty’s Credibility Problem

“Amnesty’s pro­nounce­ments on Israel are driven by a patho­lo­gic­al hatred for the Jewish State. This is betrayed by numerous public state­ments by senior figures at Amnesty, which have included calling Israel a “scum state”, and its demo­crat­ic­ally-elected gov­ern­ment, “rogue”. A research­er in Amnesty’s Middle East branch admitted she wanted Israel “gone”. The AI report is a polemical diatribe in similar vein, not a good faith analysis, and should be dismissed as such.” – Executive Council of Aus­trali­an Jewry (ECAJ) co-CEO Peter Wertheim.
