Episode Details
Back to EpisodesKen Roth - We Have It Out! Human Rights Watch Director Counters Charge of Anti-Israel Bias.
Description
He walks off after about 35 minutes of a 60-minute interview. In our view, this is an expose of the deep bias that permeates Human Rights Watch. You be the judge.
Roth even goes as far as to claim that Israeli soldiers knowingly shot at people speaking in Hebrew.
Ironically, we also offer an apology to Norman Finkelstein here.
This is quite an episode.
