Amnesty International Slammed over Anti-Semitism
After Amnesty rejected motion to campaign against anti-Semitism, NGO Monitor unveils the anti-Semitic incidents within the organization.
he Jerusalem-based think tank NGO Monitor responded sharply to the decision by Amnesty International-UK Tuesday to reject a motion which would have had it campaign against anti-Semitism in the UK.
NGO Monitor noted that there have been repeated anti-Semitic incidents "within the organization itself - in particular the activities of staff member Kristyan Benedict, who currently is listed as 'crisis response manager,'" and who it described as having a long history of "obsessive anti-Israel attacks and anti-Semitic outbursts."
The group noted how Benedict threatened physical violence against a pro-Israel attendee at an event he chaired, and how in November 2011 he tweeted a verbal barrage against three Jewish British MPs who he labelled as war-mongers.

Amnesty International: Anti-Semitic or Simply Misguided?
"In the roster of organizations whose well-meaning objectives have been distorted by bias and prejudicial resolutions, Amnesty International (AI) stands high. For those concerned with human rights, AI is now part of the problem, not part of the solution. It has lost the treasure of a spotless reputation. The stated objective of AI is to work to protect human rights worldwide, and to mobilize the grassroots power of millions of people to effect change. Yet its members recently refused to approve a text that called on the UK government to monitor anti-Semitism closely and periodically review the security situation of Britain's Jewish population.
A majority of members at AI's annual general meeting in London on April 19, thought otherwise. By a vote of 468 to 461, they rejected a resolution to campaign against anti-Semitism, and to tackle the rise in anti-Semitic attacks in Britain, whether physical or verbal, online, or in person...
t displayed that for AI, the concern about anti-Semitism was less significant than other human rights issues. One might even conclude that the 468 members voting against condemning anti-Semitism might not disapprove of it or, even more, might believe that Jews have no human rights...
It is pitiful that AI should have descended so low in its partiality in Middle Eastern affairs and in its lack of genuine concern for human rights – at least for the human rights of Jews."
