Complete with photographic evidence, this new report from NGO Monitor shows how Amnesty and Human Rights Watch failed to check their sources and were, to be blunt, acting as an extention of the Hizbollah propoganda machine during the July Hizbollah crisis.
The report highlights cases where the human right groups claimed Israel hit civilian targets which no near by military targets. The evidence shows exactly what Israel targetted and destoryed. It also tears to shreds the claims that villages like Bint Jbeil, Qana, Tyre, Aitaroun, Baflay and Zibqin were attacked without cause, and proves that Hizbollah were firing from amoungst civilians in these places.
Definitly worth a read, no so much because people still doubt Hizbollah was using human shields, but an a details example of Human Rights groups abusing their "authority" and "neutrality" to attack Israel unfairly. Next time these groups make claims about Israel perhaps people will take it wich as large a pinch of salt as they take the IDF reports (which in retrospect seem to be amazingly accurate and forthcoming).
