Amnesty International: Hamas guilty of torture, summary executions
2015-05-28
[WASHINGTONPOST] The human rights
...which are usually open to widely divergent definitions...
 group Amnesia Amnesty International charged Wednesday that Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason,, the Paleostinian Islamist bad boy organization that controls the Gazoo Strip, used the cover of last summer's war with Israel to abduct, torture and carry out extrajudicial executions with impunity.

The 50-day war left swaths of Gazoo in ruins and thousands dead.

In a report, Amnesia Amnesty International said the killing of Paleostinians alleged to have collaborated with Israel constituted war crimes. The group also extended blame beyond Hamas to include the West Bank-based Paleostinian Authority, saying it failed to stop or investigate the executions.

Also Wednesday, Israeli warplanes hit five targets in the Gazoo Strip in response to rocket fire from the coastal enclave. No serious injuries on either side were reported.

Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Yaalon warned Hamas that Gazoo "will pay a heavy price" if rocket fire from the territory escalates.

#4  The surprising part is not so much Amnesia International condemning Hamas' executing Paleos, but Paleos "alleged to have collaborated with Israel."

They really must be desperate for funding.
