Gee, thanks. But AI has long been exposed as just another tiresome dhimmi propaganda outlet. “Amnesty faults Hizbullah’s ‘war crimes,'” from the Jerusalem Post, with thanks to Twostellas:
Under criticism for its lack of objectivity, the London-based Amnesty International announced Wednesday that Hizbullah’s firing of thousands of rockets into Israel amounted to “war crimes.”
The findings, which appear in a new 15-page report, come three weeks after the human rights group issued a previous report which called Israeli strikes “war crimes,” but failed to mention Hizbullah’s rocket attacks.
“During the recent 34-day war between Hizbullah and Israel in which both sides committed serious violations of international humanitarian law, Hizbullah’s rocket attacks on northern Israel amounted to deliberate attacks on civilians and civilian objects, as well as indiscriminate attacks, both war crimes under international law,” the report states.
“Its attacks also violated other rules of international humanitarian law, including the prohibition on reprisal attacks on the civilian population.”
Hizbullah fired nearly 4,000 rockets into northern Israel during the war, killing 43 civilians, including four who died of heart attacks. The victims, among them seven children, included Jewish and Arab Israelis.
