Israel labels six Palestinian NGOs advocating for human rights, which are primarily reinforced by the international community as ‘terrorist’, with hopes of creating a shocking reaction from supporters.
These six organisations include Al-Haq, a human rights group; the Addameer rights group; Defence for Children International-Palestine; the Bisan Centre for Research and Development; the Union of Palestinian Women’s Union of Agricultural Work Committees. All of which are active participants in the international community.
Phyllis Bennis, Director of the New Internationalism Project at IPS, focusing on the Middle East, U.S. wars and U.N. issues, talked to Radio Islam on Israel’s decision to label the NGO’s as ‘terrorist’ groups and the U.S. involvement in Israel.
