[NGO Monitor] Avi Bell - On July 17, Human Rights Watch issued "Questions and Answers on Hostilities Between Israel and Hizballah." While it purports to be a neutral guide setting out the legal rules governing the current hostilities in Lebanon, the authors' distorted views of the underlying facts, selective omission of crucial legal issues, and insistent characterization of Hizballah and Israel as the primary legal actors - with the implied denial of legal responsibility of Lebanon, Syria, and Iran to end their support for Hizballah - all betray the bias of the piece. This is a consistent pattern followed by HRW in activities related to the Middle East. The writer is on the Faculty of Law at Bar-Ilan University and is Visiting Professor at Fordham University Law School. 2006-07-27 01:00:00Full Article
