Human Rights organizations and the Middle East: The regular case of Human Rights Watch. Having been monitoring the health condition of right-wing Lebanonese lawyer Muhammad Mughrabi for years, Human Rights Watch took some time off to come up with this biased coverage. Judge for yourselves:
Hezbollah Rocket Attacks on Haifa Designed to Kill Civilians
Anti-personnel Ball Bearings Meant to Harm "Soft" Targets http://www.hrw.org/english/docs/2006/07/18/lebano13760.htm
Investigate Attack on Civilians in Lebanon
IDF Must Take Precautions to Protect Civilians Fleeing Areas at Risk http://www.hrw.org/english/docs/2006/07/17/isrlpa13756.htm
Notice that in the case of Hizbullah, Human Rights Watch makes a verdict. There is no need to investigate, as they made a decision. And notice that in the case of the party that has killed more civilians, Israel, they leave it open to question. It is merely a matter for "investigation." But then again, Human Rights Watch may be right. I mean, who knows. Maybe the children in Marwahin and `Aytarun and Rumaylah died from Avian flu.
