Human Rights NGOs Rally To Defend Group That Celebrates Murder, Abduction, Rape, Mutilation, Slavery

“Also Israel bombed a mosque next to a school!” they shouted, referring to a mosque that Hamas used as a weapon-storage depot.

Gaza City, October 8 – Organizations in the forefront of the global campaign to promote accountability for government violations of human rights and dignity closed ranks today to keep the pressure off one such de facto government that just perpetrated thousands of atrocities against civilians in Israel.

Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, Btselem, Breaking the Silence, and other “human rights” groups that have issued frequent condemnations of real and imagined Israeli violations all rallied today to “contextualize” and “balance” the documented war crimes and crimes against humanity that Palestinians have committed for the last two days in and around the Gaza Strip, during and following an invasion from Gaza by hundreds of Hamas terrorists: shooting civilians in the streets, abducting hundreds, gang rape, beating children, executions of prisoners, and mutilation of bodies. In most cases, the Palestinian perpetrators themselves filmed the evidence, for bragging purposes. As of this writing, Israeli dead number more than 600, injured more than 2,000, and abducted at least 100.

“We condemn the violence on both sides and call for deescalation,” read a statement by Amnesty International, which compared Israel’s self-defense measures and hostage-release operations to the Palestinian mass murder and violations that precipitated them.

“It is not helpful to call militants ‘terrorists,'” admonished Ken Roth, former Human Rights Watch chief, focusing on what he felt the most important element of the current situation, in which Palestinian “militants” went house to house in Israel and shot, abducted, and raped civilians, taking hundreds back to the Gaza Strip as hostages and sex slaves.

Breaking the Silence, a small Israeli group that seeks to libel the IDF and enjoys generous foreign funding, aimed to call attention to the “justice” of the situation, explaining that the people of Gaza have no choice but to celebrate barbarity, and besides, have you heard the made-up crimes we’ve attributed to Israel all these years?

Activists attempted to drown out video clips of an abducted Israeli four-year-old in Gaza undergoing beatings by Palestinian children for being a “dirty Jew.” “Think of the children who will die when Israel retaliates!” they cried, ignoring the fact that legal and moral liability for any civilian casualties from Israeli strikes on Hamas targets lies with those who put the civilians in harm’s way and embedded their armed positions in civilians areas and infrastructure.

“Also Israel bombed a mosque next to a school!” they shouted, referring to a mosque that Hamas used as a weapon-storage depot.

Western media outlets rushed to amplify the NGO talking points and downplay the brutality and scale of the Palestinian atrocities.
