Amnesty International Singling Out Jews in 2019
(NGO Monitor) Documents seen by NGO Monitor indicate that Amnesty International will conduct a series of intense campaigns singling out Israel in early 2019. One new Amnesty campaign involves a "blacklist" targeting businesses "operating in the illegal Israeli settlements." In addition, Amnesty documents show that it specifically seeks to censure companies that educate the public about Jewish history and historical ties to Jerusalem. Amnesty has also supported legislation in Ireland that, if enacted, will criminalize visiting Jewish historical and holy sites, including Jerusalem's Old City, and purchasing goods and services from Jews located in Jerusalem over the 1949 Armistice lines.
