(NGO Monitor) The Israeli government has denied a work visa for Omar Shakir, the Israel and Palestine Country Director for Human Rights Watch. Shakir is a strident supporter of BDS (boycotts, divestment, sanctions) tactics. Before joining HRW, Shakir was a legal fellow at the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR), an organization that provides legal assistance and training to BDS activists and has filed "war crimes" lawsuits against Israeli officials. "For two decades, Human Rights Watch has been one of the most blatant and aggressive anti-Israel NGOs in the world," said Prof. Gerald Steinberg, president of NGO Monitor. "Their defenders need to ask why they systematically hire pro-BDS activists for key Israel-related 'research' positions, while lobbying to isolate Israel through false allegations....If HRW and its backers wish to be taken seriously, they need to start acting in a manner consistent with the principles of universal human rights, including with respect to Israel." 2017-02-27 00:00:00Full Article
