An Amnesty official suggested the reason neither he nor Amnesty will address concerns over factual errors is because such time won't “contribute to helping to end Israeli apartheid.” In other words, the conclusion has already been declared and the facts don’t matter.

Roth’s reaction to his rejection from Harvard's Kennedy School is simply the latest iteration of his penchant for blaming the Jews first, and asking questions later.
After Kenneth Roth, the former head of Human Rights Watch, received a preliminary offer of a Senior Fellowship from the Carr Center at Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government, the offer was not approved by the Kennedy School's Dean.
