Amnesty International has become a tool for spreading institutionalized and anti-Semitic hatred against Israel, and promotes policies consistent with BDS targets, after parts of this organization have taken over Palestinian activists, affiliated with the Palestinian Authority and publicly supporting terrorist organizations.

This is set by a new study by British anti-Semitism expert David Collier of the Jewish Human Rights Watch, due to be published this week. The study will be reviewed by UK law enforcement agencies to see if the organization's activities do not violate British law.

Amnesty International's head offices are located in London. Established in 1961 to protect human rights around the world, the organization claims that today its members are seven million people, making it the largest civil society organization in the world. The report, which is first published here, reveals extreme anti-Israeli bias among many Amnesty employees, including dozens in senior positions. crowd.

Collier tracked down an official Amnesty consultant who posted tweets in support of a terrorist organization and advised terrorist activists to hide real information about their actions to "protect the resistance." The report states that Amnesty has recruited workers who are known to be active for a particular political cause, in a way that completely contradicts the principles of neutrality that should underpin the organization's work.

"Some Amnesty workers are very little interested in human rights beyond their hatred of Israel," the report points out, "Amnesty has a symbiotic relationship with the BDS, and it is therefore fair to conclude that elements of Amnesty International are actively seeking to promote the elimination of the Jewish state. Since there is a religious aspect to Amnesty's obsession, we conclude that the cumulative effect of the organization's unnatural hostility toward Israel is anti-Semitic, "states the stern report, which calls for Amnesty's activity in schools because the organization is currently propagating" toxic ideology.

The report outlines 21 specific cases of Amnesty senior workers, whose social networking activities reveal their hostile attitudes towards Israel, including the organization's consultants and reports in Judea, Samaria and the Gaza Strip, but also senior executives at Amnesty's London office. One of them is Saleh Hijazi, Middle East deputy director - a Ramallah native who was a well-known anti-Israeli activist before joining the ranks - and at the same time serves as a member of the Shabaka Palestinian body, which is affiliated with the BDS and regularly accuses Israel of apartheid, genocide and ethnic cleansing.

"It is not coincidental that Hijazi's rise in Amnesty ranks coincided with Amnesty's further penetration of pure BDS areas, in an activity with the Enterprise Systems Against Airbnb and Trip Advisor," the report noted. Although Hijazi is responsible for his role in the Middle East, Of his 152 tweets in the year before the study was completed, only four did not deal with the Arab-Israeli conflict.

The document concludes that "in light of the findings of the study, it can be concluded that the Amnesty International has declared open war against Israel and is turning away its entire pool of capabilities against the Jewish state. The obsession with Amnesty in Israel is due to deep hostility and anti-Semitism."

"Report not yet received"

Amnesty International told Israel Today: "We have not seen the report in question and are unable to respond to these claims. Amnesty International is an independent and impartial organization that adheres to the highest standards of research in all its work. All research products that Amnesty International publishes are subject to rigorous scrutiny, including multiple layers of certification by research managers and experts in international policy and law. The organization is committed to exposing and abusing human rights violations wherever they exist and continues to do so. "
