You Can Count on Amnesty International

Amnesty International claims that both Israel and Hamas have committed war crimes and urges Israel-Hamas arms embargo. The problem is that Hamas has been committing war crimes for the past decade. Where was Amnesty International when Hamas have exploded suicide bombers in Israel while coaxing teenagers and women into these barbaric acts? Where was Amnesty International when Hamas has been firing 8,000 rockets indiscriminately into Israeli towns and cities? Where was Amnesty International when despite the rocket attacks from Gaza, Israel withdrew from the costal strip while Hamas have continued firing rockets into Israel? Where was Amnesty International when Hamas committed a coup against Fatah ruled Gaza and murdered 350 of their own people? Where was Amnesty International when Hamas have arrested and executed Palestinians without a trail? “We are all Hamas now” as the anti war coalition chanted with Annie Lenox in London, eh?
