International NGOs should work toward the goal of ensuring human rights for all citizens, everywhere. Instead, many disproportionately focus on allegations of Israeli violations and use their power and funding to promote a distorted narrative of the Arab-Israeli conflict.
On August 19 2024, Human Rights Watch (HRW) released a statement accusing Israel of “an apparently unlawful indiscriminate or disproportionate attack on civilians” for airstrikes on the Yemini port of Hodeida.
In March 2024, HRW and Oxfam submitted a report to the Biden Administration regarding Israeli forces' conduct in Gaza.
NGO Monitor analyzes HRW's expanded demonization of Israel, calling for boycotts and lawfare, and focusing on lobbying Europe to pressure and isolate Israel. HRW also continued to downplay antisemitism under the guise of protecting free speech
In the wake of the barbaric Hamas massacre of 1,500 Israelis and the kidnapping of more than 200, Amnesty has exploited these events to amplify demonization and delegitimization of the Jewish state.
Since Hamas’ October 7 brutal pogrom in southern Israel, NRC has issued numerous statements, almost entirely focused on condemning Israel for its response in Gaza – aside from token mentions of Israeli victims.
Since the brutal October 7 Hamas pogrom, Human Rights Watch (HRW) has hyperactively published statements and condemnations, primarily demonizing Israel.
On May 2, 2023, Amnesty International published “Automated Apartheid,” the latest installment in a multi-year campaign to smear Israel with that label.
HRW's apartheid publication is fundamentally flawed, using lies, distortions, omissions, and blatant double standards to construct a fraudulent and libelous narrative demonizing Israel.
Although Amnesty officials repeatedly referred to the document as “original research” extending over 4 years (or 3 in other cases), an examination of the contents reveals this to be a collection and repetition of the verbal contortions and discredited claims largely copied from other NGOs with the same agenda.
