On Saturday, the Palestinian Center for Human Rights issued a press release claiming that a statement by Israel's Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) was part of a "smear campaign" against them.
Yet in that very statement, PCHR published this bullet point:
PCHR affirms the right of the Palestinian people to resist the occupation by all available means, including armed struggle, all the way to achieve their legitimate rights, end the occupation, and establish their independent state.
"All available means, including armed struggle" means that this "human rights" organization officially supports terror attacks against civilians. There is no caveat there.
Indeed, PCHR has never, to my knowledge, said a word against Palestinian terror attacks or rocket salvos towards civilian areas.
Yet this terror -supporting "human rights" organization is still respected by the international community.
It is becoming more and more apparent that killing Jews and "human rights" are not considered incompatible by an increasing umber of people and organizations that style themselves as supporting "social justice."
In a sane world, this statement would result in an immediate outcry and end to international funding of PCHR, which are listed on their website:
1 Al Maqdese for Society Development
2 Al-Quds Association Malaga-Spain
3 Arab Human Rights Fund (AHRF)
4 Bertha Foundation
5 Christian Aid
6 Dan Church Aid
7 European Commission through Oxfam
8 Foundation to Promote Open Society
9 Grassroots International
10 Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law Secretariat
11 Iris O’Brien Foundation
12 Irish Aid
13 Kvinna Till Kvinna Foundation (KTK)
14 KZE through MISEREOR
15 NGO Development Center (NDC)
16 Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC)
17 Oxfam Novib
18 Representative Office of Finland
19 Representative Office of Norway
20 San Sabastian
21 San Sabastian council
22 Spanish Cooperation
23 Terre des hommes foundation (TDH)
24 Trocaire
25 UNDP
26 UNVFVT
Email these organizations and ask them if they are aware that they are funding a pro-terror organization. They might not have been impressed with the news that PCHR is strongly linked to the PFLP terror group, but when the organization says it supports terror explicitly, that is a little harder to ignore.
