Molly Malekar, executive director of Amnesty International Israel, says Amnesty report accusing Israel of apartheid was deeply flawed, misrepresenting the situation of Arab Israelis, and pressing an ideological point rather than saying what needs fixing. timesofisrael.com/amnestys-israe…
Molly Malekar, executive director of Amnesty International Israel, says she agrees with the criticism of Amnesty for the report accusing Israel of "apartheid" in being too monomaniacal in its target; "it stands out, it has been exaggerated."
Molly Malekar, executive director of Amnesty International Israel: "I also have a problem with Amnesty International's approach on antisemitism. Amnesty is supposed to fight antisemitism. It does, but not enough, and sometimes I feel that it needs to be pressured into action."
Malekar says Amnesty is concerned about opposing antisemitism properly because this might give the impression it is pro-Israel - and that, of course, would be awful.

Not sure Molly Malekar, executive director of Amnesty International Israel, realises how much she is giving away in saying, "the only important question is what are you trying to achieve by it". This is a flat admission that Amnesty's work is political, rather than fact-finding.
