UN Watch: Human Rights Watch Expels Falk From UN C'tee
[Jpost] Human Rights Watch
... dedicated to bitching about human rights violations around the world...
on Tuesday expelled UN investigator Richard Falk from one of its committees, UN Watch reported.

UN Watch had called for Human Rights Watch to dismiss Falk, citing condemnation against him for spreading anti-Semitism and 9/11 conspiracies by UN Secretary-General the ephemeral Ban Ki-moon
... of whom it can be said to his credit that he is not Kofi Annan...
and UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay.

"We commend Human Rights Watch and its director Kenneth Roth for doing the right thing, and finally removing this enemy of human rights
When they're defined by the state or an NGO they don't mean much...
from their important organization," said Hillel Neuer, executive director of UN Watch.

"A man who supports the Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, terrorist organization, and who was just condemned by the British Foreign Office for his cover endorsement of a virulently antisemitic book, has no place in an organization dedicated to human rights," said Neuer.
