[Excerpts]

Powerful NGOs claiming to promote universal human rights have long been major sources of false claims and hate propaganda targeting Israel. The violent antisemitic attacks that took place in Amsterdam were another manifestation of these campaigns.

For three decades, the US-based HRW has been among the leaders of this insidious warfare, once again displayed in a new publication cynically headlined “‘Hopeless, Starving, and Besieged: Israel’s Forced Displacement of Palestinians in Gaza.” This form of agit-prop falsely portrays Israel as cruelly, arbitrarily, and needlessly evicting 90% of the Gazan population from their homes, bombing them as they evacuate and depriving them of food, water, and sanitation.

With an annual budget of about $100 million, HRW claims to advance human rights for all, while disproportionately and brazenly peddling false accusations based on the claims of Hamas. As in all its statements and “reports” on Israel and Palestinians, the HRW staff erases the reality of 17 years of the Hamas reign of terror in Gaza, as well as the mountains of obvious evidence depicting Palestinian war crimes.

This is not merely another biased and inaccurate report that gets a few “cut and paste” headlines from wire services and some posts on social media.
