Israeli Information Centre For Human Rights
Jan 7th, 2009 | By Bock | Category: Politics, World, warB’TSELEM – The Israeli Information Center for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories was founded by Israeli academics, lawyers, journalists, and members of the Israeli parliament.
Its stated aims are
- to document and educate the Israeli public and policymakers about human rights violations in the Occupied Territories,
- combat the phenomenon of denial prevalent among the Israeli public, and
- help create a human rights culture in Israel.
The site is HERE.
You’ll find the visit interesting.
Good to hear an Israeli voice crying in the dark. We should hear more such as theirs.
As someone who supports the right of Israel to exist in peace and see the establishment of a viable, secular Palestinian State to prosper alongside its neighbour, the situation despairs me too much to comment much as I see no end to this, just temporary breaks in the needless slaughter.
Until the next round of blood is called for, when either election opportunities present themselves to one side or God commands the other crowd to place their children on a sacrificial altar for the cause.
A senseless, dirty, grotesque conflict serving the blood thirsty needs of maniacs on both sides who call themselves leaders of their people.
some of the videos on that site are truely shocking. to shoot a man who is handcuffed, blindfolded and already injured from a few feet away with a rubber bullet is horrific and sickening. how can it even be justified?
