"Human rights" organization supports Hamas terror

Arabic media reports that the Justice Organization for Development and Human Rights criticized Britain's classification of Hamas as a terrorist organization.

The organization's official spokesman, Zaidan Al-Qani, dsid that it is Israel that is the largest terrorist organization in the world.

Furthermore, this "human rights" leader said that Hamas attacks on Jews, which he calls "resisting the Israeli occupation," is not terrorism.

The organization called on the United States and the European Union to classify "all racist Jewish organizations inside Israel and right-wing Jewish organizations that support settlements as terrorist organizations."

Who is the Justice Organization for Development and Human Rights?

Its webpage seems to have disappeared in 2016, but before that it was a Yemen-based organization whose webpage had links to a few major human rights treaties - and no information about anything the JODHR actually does. (

It looks like a shell organization meant to issue statements and perhaps act as a tax shelter for Zaidan al-Qani, who may be the only member.

Apparently, anyone can start a human rights organization and issue statements that the media will take seriously - even if those statements directly contradict human rights!

How do you think organizations started by the PFLP terror group, whose entire idea of "human rights" is to attack Israel and never say anything negative about Palestinian terror, are treated seriously by Western NGOs?  They are a somewhat more sophisticated version of this group.
