Amnesty International is a worldwide movement of people who campaign for internationally recognized human rights for all., we are told!
Our supporters are outraged by human rights abuses but inspired by hope for a better world – so we work to improve human rights through campaigning and international solidarity.
We have more than 2.8 million members and supporters in more than 150 countries and regions and we coordinate this support to act for justice on a wide range of issues.
So now we all know what they stand for; for fairness, for human rights and against abuses. So I wonder why the Chairman of Finnish Amnesty International declares Israel, the ONLY Democracy in the Middle East, to be a Scum State.
When called upon it, he removed the post, and tried to state that he was misquoted, but we know differently, don’t we?
Israel is not perfect, that Nation is the first to admit that, but there is, in that small beleagured nation, the very definition of the finest that Humanity produces; based upon the simple truth that they have to win every battle; the Arabs, the Palestinians, the rest of the surrounding scum only have to win one!

Mike, you're on a roll today – a series of great posts. Thanks!
Who would Amnesty stand by should Israel lose and Hamas, Hezballah and Fatah carry out their threats?
I have little or no time for Amnesty International
amnesty international, don't make me laugh
As for Israel it is the canary in the coal mine for the rest of the world
Why throw out the baby with the bathwater. A wrongheaded comment by an individual official does not negate everything and all the many good works that Amnesty undeniably does do for individuals imrisoned unjustly around the world.
Amnesty International = Clueless, Commie Idiots!
Don't you agree politico68?
Hi Eddie,
I am touched that you were thinking of me at 7.51 am this morning, or should i be concerned? 😉
I have been to Palestine/isreal and I have seen at first hand what the terrorist Israel state is about.
As for Amnesty International, I would be quite surprised if yourself and some of your buddies on here approved of any organization that promotes Fair play, equality, compassion and human rights.
Colm, agreed. Amnesty has dropped a few clangers in its time – e.g. the recent 'gulag' thing – but there is no doubt that overall it is a good thing that it and similar organisations exist.
Not to worry politico68……….. I ain't queer for your gear.
Sunday morning sleep-ins are for sissies.
I get up at 5.00 AM every day, do my daily exercise routine, eat my grainola sweetened with honey and begin my Conservative campaign before 7.00 AM.
No booze, cigarettes or late night carousing for me. Plenty of self-contemplation, sleep and introspection. That's the ticket to freeing the mind of filthy, Liberal progressive Socialist thoughts.
You should try it instead of smoozing with the Hamas terrorists and the naive Amnesty International dhimmis. That's like playing with fire.
Hey Eddie,
You mentioned me randomly on some other thread this morning also, thats why i was wondering about your motives, cyber platonics suit me just fine anyway.
I am working today and enjoying the excitement of the build up for Kildare v Down match.
I am shouting for Kildare as i work here so if you are from Down don't be offended.
If Down get through to the Final i will be shouting for them against Cork no problem, gimme an Ulster county over a munster one any day of the week. 😉
"As for Israel it is the canary in the coal mine for the rest of the world"
Three words . . .Terrorists in government.
" Gimme an Ulster county over a Munster one any day of the week"
Or a Leinster one. An Dún abú

It's nice the way you can Market yourself as 'the only demoracy' whilst denying that right to others.
Porkchops
Don't know what you mean above?
I think it's clearly a reference to Israel.
Obviously but in what context?
who does he think is marketing who or what as the only democracy? I'm a bit lost
I guess he is saying that Israel markets itself as the only Democracy in the middle east while denying that democracy to the Palestinians in the Israeli controlled territories.
ah ok sorry, trying to watch the kildare/down game at the same time. Can't multi task 😉
