Doubling down on their lies and smears, and even making a buck off them. Amnesty International is beneath contempt.
“Amnesty UK to release ‘end Israeli apartheid’ merch line,” Jerusalem Post, July 11, 2022:
Amnesty International UK announced a new line of merchandise on Monday titled “End Israeli Apartheid.”
The announcement was made by Kristyan Benedict, Amnesty International UK campaign manager for Israel/Palestine and Syria, over Twitter.
“New Amnesty UK T-shirts, briefings, and other merch to support the #EndIsraeliApartheid global campaign – more coming soon,” Benedict tweeted.
“Our campaign to help end Israel’s cruel system of apartheid against Palestinians has seen an excellent response from people who are opposed to racism and discrimination,” Kristyan Benedict, Amnesty International UK’s Crisis Response Manager, told The Jerusalem Post.
“We expect the t-shirts and other End Israeli Apartheid campaign products to be popular. The first set of t-shirts will be available in the coming days, with more in development in partnership with Palestinian artists.”…
The US said attempts to label Israel as an apartheid state were absurd.
The NGO has also long faced accusations of engaging in antisemitism, though it fervently denies these allegations.

Once upon a time in a far distance past Amnesty International was a very good and solid organization, but that was a very different time and a very different generation, this current lot are mostly bat shit crazy with their collective heads up their collective asses… They all seem to know a lot about nothing.
Perhaps a T-Shirt promoting this Two State Solution they used to all scream about even the muslim Arabs dont seem to want one.
Would that notion now be know as politically correct?.
Inquiring minds want to know.

The proper response to this would be to print T-shirts w/ the message: “START Israeli apartheid”. In fact, in today’s environment, apartheid is the ideal setup for muslims in any country, be it Israel, India, Greece, France, UK, et al. Have completely separate schools, townships, everything! Ban marriages b/w muslims & non-muslims: it solves the issues of grooming gangs/love jihad/whatever one calls it. Ban mosques or dargahs in the non-muslim parts of any country/town/district, and sure, don’t have churches or temples in the muslim parts either. Completely separate them out
If Israel, India and all the other countries I mentioned really had a state of apartheid separating out muslims from the rest of the population, and had that strictly enforced by law, there wouldn’t be any issues. Except of course for woke explorers wanting to find out what life might be like if a non-muslim wanted to convert to islam

Profiting from lies: Amnesty UK to release ‘end Israeli apartheid’ merch line
……………………………..
My husband and I were members of Amnesty International for years. This is an example of why this is not longer the case.

This is EVIL, there is no other word to describe it. Such lies breeds hatred, hate towards Israel, hate towards the Jewish people. This is exactly what this merchandise is doing, and there is far to much of this sort of thing going on in the world today.
