#1 Hezbollah needs to go screw a rock. I notice that nowhere does anyone mention their vile practice of erecting launchers in civilian Lebanese neighborhoods. Let me know when HRW finally declares shari'a law a violation of human rights. Until then, they are morally void.

#2 Well, thanks Human Rights Watch! Just in the nick of time! It looks like you really saved the day there, since the war was a year ago. Nothing like timely intervention, eh?

#3 To be candid, if I haven't seen it in JPost first, I'd thought Fred is posting from Onion.

#5 NPR reported this morning that if the report is published, Hizb'allah plans to sue. I'll start stocking up on popcorn, just in case.

#6 This declaration took a year to come out, BUT the declaration that Israel committed war crimes came out DURING the war.

I demand to know why Human Rights Watch took so long in the one case and so short in the other.

If terrorism works for Hezbollah, but not for Israel, what prevents ME from engaging in terrorism against Human Rights Watch to ENSURE EQUAL TREATMENT?

#7 Don't get too excited.

A search of all current news items on "human rights watch" and "hezbollah" produced a grand total of 99 articles.

A search of the word "palestinian" produced over 1000, mostly dealing with the children killed by Israel when they went after a rocket launcher where children were allowed to be.

#9 Obviously I woke up in Bizarro World this morning. The ever lame Human Rights Watch is denouncing the Hezbies for war crimes, The PA is saving IDF soldiers from lynch mobs. WTF! It is almost a relief to see the Palestinians are still using their children as cannon fodder.
