The State Department's Human Rights Reports on Israel and the Occupied Territories
By Jennifer Loewenstein



Date of article: December 24, 2001


Parts from the article:

Most people in the Arab and Muslim worlds know that this is a standard example of US hypocrisy and support for unjust regimes. The United States Government is well aware of Israel's poor human rights record both towards the Palestinians living under its 34-year-old occupation and towards Palestinian citizens of Israel itself.

Our politicians and pundits regularly distort the reality of the situation, however, ignoring or overlooking carefully documented records of Israeli human rights abuses. To highlight this point one need not only quote from the extensive reports of Amnesty International or Human Rights Watch. The US State Department has yearly, detailed reports of Israeli human rights abuses available for anyone interested.

it really amazes me how much you people care about the writer instead of the facts, you can spend your time verifying the facts in the article instead of replying with a useless reply like yours.

its funny to see the way that most americans think about any site that hosts any articles against israel, they are just liars to you, you have never learned to open minded and verify everything yourself instead of judging everything with just your feelings.
