How Human Rights Watch Morphed into an Anti-Israel Group

This is quite an interesting article on how one of the founders of Human Rights Watch had a falling out with the organization over its treatment of Israel.

On October 19 of last year, the op-ed page of The New York Times contained a bombshell: a piece by Robert Bernstein, the founder and former chairman of Human Rights Watch (HRW), attacking his own organization. HRW, Bernstein wrote, was “helping those who wish to turn Israel into a pariah state.”

I wonder if Obama is getting his background of anti-Israel-ism from groups like HRW?
