I support genuine human rights watch groups and campaigns. I was a loyal supporter and member of Amnesty International for years until I began to learn a bit more about its funding sources, founders, board members past and present (e.g. Rothschilds, Zbigniew Brzezinski) and some of the extremely spurious claims they have made over the years. I no longer trust AI and would advise anyone considering supporting AI to look more deeply into AI's history and false claims before giving your precious time and money. I'm not accusing AI of absolute across the board corruption. But there is enough pro-imperialist propaganda peddled by AI e.g. anti-Iraq, anti-Libya, anti-Syria and 'errors' that strangely often benefit western invading powers, to convince me to steer clear of them.For more info watch "Amnesty International Exposed" on youtube.Also search online for "An open letter to Amnesty International, by former Amnesty International Prisoner of Conscience Camilo E. Mejia, on the violence gripping his native Nicaragua."However, the fact that AI has been targeted by Israeli spyware suggests that it may not be all bad. If we recognise that Israel sets the benchmark for wickedness against both its foes and allies in this, our troubled world.

I am ashamed to have supported an organisation able to make such terrible mistakes and with so weak a response. They are a campaigning organisation but have lost their way, seemingly obsessed by their concern with "hate" speech - even if spoken many years ago and in whatever context. Judged by this sort of decision, they have lost the credibility that they require to do the job they have taken on. Focus on the problem you are trying to solve - states abusing citizens - not trying to add all sorts of other criteria in that tie you in knots. Shame on you and me for supporting you in the past

Amnesty International recently published a report that falsely accuses Israel of "apartheid" and crimes against humanity, thus placing it squarely in the camp of terrorists who have stated openly that their goal is to make the Middle East Judenrein (free of Jews), and they are no bargain for Christians, peaceful Muslims, women, or LGBT people either. The terrorists' abuse of women and LGBT people is conspicuously absent from Amnesty International's report which reflects as I see it on the integrity, character, and credibility of the entire organization.The report also comes dangerously close to denial of Israel's right to exist, which would make Amnesty International an anti-Semitic hate group. (Disagreement with Israel's policies is not anti-Semitic but denial of its right to exist is.) The report says "Since its establishment in 1948, Israel has pursued a policy of establishing and then maintaining a Jewish demographic majority, and maximizing control over land and resources to benefit Jewish Israelis. In 1967, Israel extended this policy to the West Bank and Gaza Strip. "Well, yes, Israel was established in 1948, by the United Nations, as a Jewish state (although it welcomes Christians and Muslims who share its values as citizens). Israel then rightfully seized Judea, Samaria, and Gaza after Syria, Jordan, and Egypt started two wars in the space of less than 20 years for the purpose of making the region Judenrein. (Nazi Germany also had territory taken from it in 1945 and given to some of the countries it had invaded.) In any event, Amnesty International's reference to 1948 comes very close, as I see it, to denial of Israel's right to exist.UN Watch meanwhile alleges, with screen shots as evidence, that an Amnesty International worker set up an Arab peace activist to be arrested, tortured, and possibly killed by Hamas terrorists. Trustpilot does not allow links; the article title is "Amnesty International official gets Hamas to arrest peace activist." See also i

Not reacting to human rights violations in the world: UK, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, USA, and most recently ignoring political overreach, police brutality and illegal arrests, unlawful measures put in place by crazy man Trudeau. Their office in Canada is right in the middle of Trudeau's war against peaceful people and Amnesty is silent. Shame on them, this organisation is useless.

Useless and corrupted organisation. Can't believe your report on Ukrainian fighting tactics - looks like they deny Ukraine right to resist genocide against Ukrainians? Where was your opininon on million of war crimes commited by russian army - Bucha, Mykolaiv, Mariupol, Kharkiv, Olenivka, just to name few? this is truly unbelievable, lost absolutely any trust on you. Amnesty International officials seem to be on Putin's payroll. Drinking Prosecco in safety of Lviv and creating an impression of work.
