More False Claims by Human Rights Watch Against Israel
(NGO Monitor) Human Rights Watch (HRW) issued a 166-page report entitled "Separate and Unequal," accusing Israel of discriminating against Palestinians in the West Bank. The majority of the report is based on claims of politicized advocacy groups that HRW did not independently verify. Significant portions of HRW's indictment are based on a tendentious version of human rights norms and international law. The report is another step in HRW's support for the BDS (boycotts, divestment, and sanctions) effort and contributes to the global campaign to demonize and delegitimize Israel.
