No, madam, I most definitely will not follow you. Your group lost all respect when I heard from my friend the late Bob Bernstein, legendary founder of Human Rights Watch, how your executive director, Pablo Christiani 2.0, turned HRW into a fig leaf for genocidal antisemites.
Having said that, if you're trying to contact me to report on malfeasance and moral corruption by Human Rights Watch and its leader Ken Roth, or for anything else, please do feel free to write me here: civicrm.unwatch.org/contact_us
Less than two weeks after the smiling mouthpiece of the Iranian regime said his regime executed gay people because of "moral principles," Ken Roth described him as a humanitarian with whom he is proud to have "dealings."
Ken Roth actually tweeted out this picture during a war to defend the Hamas terrorist organization whose Jihadi gunmen used a tunnel into Israel to kidnap Gilad Shalit and hold him incommunicado for five years in breach of international humanitarian law.
Ken Roth obscenely tried to pervert international law to justify Hamas terror tunnels into Israel (illegal aggression under the UN Charter) which he knew were used to kidnap Israelis like Gilad Shalit (a war crime even per B'Tselem btselem.org/press_releases…).
Ken Roth had one of the key supporters of the 9/11 conspiracy theory—which obscenely accuses the United States of bombing its own people—as an active committee member of Human Rights Watch. reuters.com/article/uk-un-…
Ken Roth tried to defend the antisemitic U.N. Human Rights Council by declaring in 2006: “Countries with poor human rights records like Saudi Arabia will never have a seat on the council again.”
In fact, Saudi Arabia won successive 3-year terms in 2006, 2009, 2014 & 2017.
Aug. 9: Ken Roth says "No Israeli Arabs represent Israel at the Tokyo Olympics...given the discrimination within Israel."

In which UNRWA teachers like 28-year-old Ahmed actually complain about how they can no longer express themselves on social media in support of Hamas terrorist attacks against Jews, due to pressure on the agency brought on by the reporting of UN Watch. electronicintifada.net/content/unrwa-…
"'I used to express my support for the Palestinian resistance through Facebook, especially during the previous three Israeli attacks on Gaza.'
After his employment with UNRWA began, however, Ahmed said he was effectively silenced."
"So intense has the oversight become that he is thinking about deleting all his social media accounts in case he simply can’t restrain himself in the future."

Today we remember the fate of 850,000 Jewish refugees forced out of Arab countries and Iran in the 20th century. Communities dating back 2500 years were destroyed.
At the UN, I asked Algeria, Egypt, Iraq & the others: “Where are your Jews?”

On this day 74 years ago, Nov. 30, 1947—a day after the UN voted to partition Palestine into Arab and Jewish states—Syria incited mobs in Aleppo. Rioters burned 50 Jewish shops, 5 schools, 18 synagogues, the community’s orphanage, a youth club & 150 homes. timesofisrael.com/a-different-hi…
In Aden, now part of Yemen, local Arabs slaughtered or burned to death 87 Jews, including children, women & the elderly; dozens more were seriously injured; the 2 Jewish schools, several synagogues & many homes were destroyed; every Jewish shop was looted. timesofisrael.com/murder-looting…
On this day in 1947, the United Nations voted to partition Palestine into Arab and Jewish states. The Jews danced in the streets. The Arabs rejected it, declared a war of extermination against the Jewish population, and lost.
Here's how the U.N. in Geneva today marked this date:
Arab League: “The Israeli government is an intransigent, racist government that does not believe in the two-state solution or in the right to self-determination. Their main program is expanding settlements, Judaization, and the repression of Palestinians.” media.un.org/en/asset/k1j/k…
.@OICatUN: “We celebrate Palestinian Solidarity Day in midst of continued practices of Israel, the occupying power, to perpetuate colonial occupation of the Palestinian land through aggression, forced displacement, ethnic cleansing, settlement, Judaization, land confiscation...”
Toronto District School Board superintendent vetoes student book event with Yazidi activist and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Nadia Murad because her memoir about being captured and sexually enslaved by Islamic State terrorists “would foster Islamophobia.” lefigaro.fr/culture/de-peu…
Tanya Lee, the book club organizer who tried to invite Murad, sent superintendent Helen Fisher information about the Islamic State. “It is a terrorist organization. It has nothing to do with ordinary Muslims. The Toronto School Board should be aware of the difference,” wrote Lee.
The next day, Fisher responded by sending Lee a copy of the school board’s policy on “selecting equitable, culturally relevant and responsive reading materials.”
