MESOP MIDEAST WATCH: JOOST HILTERMANN – A JEWISH VOICE (HUMAN RIGHTS WATCH HRW)

Joost Hiltermann 25-102021

I and 42 other former staff members of  @alhaq_org in #Palestine denounce #Israel’s bizarre and outrageous designation of Al-Haq, a leading human rights organization, and 5 other civic groups working in the Occupied Territories as “terrorist organizations.” https://tinyurl.com/Al-HaqFormerSt

As we say, “We are immensely proud of having worked with al-Haq; we are proud to have been – and to continue to be – associated with the organisation; and we are proud here to express support for its ongoing work in defence of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territories”

We call on our own governments to ensure Israel’s respect for international law, its immediate repeal of the designation, and its commitment to allow Palestinian human rights organizations to carry out their vital monitoring of Israel’s abusive conduct in the oPt unhindered.
