HRW's Bogus Gaza
Human Rights Watch (HRW) has a 30-year history of systematic false accusations and strident advocacy in its reports and statements regarding Israel. Their latest publication is another blatant example...
ngo-monitor.org
Another scurrilous #HRW propaganda "report" - shamelessly weaponizing disinformation to support Jew-hate (Amsterdam as latest example.)

Key omissions in usual "blame Israel" narrative: 1) Hamas command center with operatives, rockets, other arms hiding in what was supposed to be a civilian only humanitarian zone. 2) Multiple lethal rocket attacks vs Israeli civilians launched from humanitarian zone - each a war crime. FYI BBCVerify

Pulling the Plug on the NGO Propaganda Industry
In the ongoing plague of Jew-hatred and Israel derangement, the propaganda war led by powerful nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) plays a central role.

Syrian rebel troops are reportedly pouring into Damascus City. It looks like Bashar al-Assad is on the verge of being overthrown β a major defeat for both Russia and Iran.
The imminent collapse of the Assad regime can be traced to October 8 2023, when Tehran's proxy (Hezbollah) - reinforced the heinous Hamas attack vs. Israel. Hezbollah & the IRGC were essential in propping up Assad. 11 months later, the IDF began to tear Hezbollah apart, also weakening Assad.

Nov 29 1947: UN resolution 181 adopted. 2 states for 2 peoples - Jews and Arabs. Jews agreed, Arabs "fly into rage," prepare war to "throw the Jews into the sea." 77 years later, Palestinian Arabs (now with Iranian regime allies) continue rejection, terror atrocities, war.

There is no peace agreement. The goal of the Tehran regime & proxy terror armies (Hezbollah, Houthis, etc) remains the destruction of Israel (actual genocide). In response, and based on the lessons of the past 14 months, Israel will act with force and preemptively whenever its survival is threatened

5) For 15 years (since 2009 Goldstone Gaza report farce) much of the Israeli legal establishment, including senior judges & academics, relied on fact-based argumentation (principle of "complementarity") and ignored or severely understated the power politics -- a very costly error in judgement.
