The New York-based Human Rights Watch anti-Israel has appointed Shawan Jabarin, a Palestinian who, according to the Shin Bet (Service General Security), is a senior member of the terrorist group Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), as its adviser for the Middle East, according to Sir Harold Evans has been investigated, former editor of the Sunday Times.
HRW's decision to include on its board Jabarin Middle East provoked criticism from Robert L. Bernstein, founder of Human Rights Watch, Stuart Robinowitz, a prominent New York lawyer who has conducted human rights missions of the American Bar Association and Helsinki Watch (HRW's predecessor) in Yugoslavia, Bulgaria and El Salvador, and Professor Gerald Steinberg, chairman of the Jerusalem-based NGO Monitor.
In 2007, the Supreme Court of Israel called on Shawan Jabarin "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" because it was active at a time in Al-Haq, a Palestinian human rights organization, and the terrorist group PFLP. In 2008, the court wrote about Jabarin is "one of the major activists of the terrorist organization the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine." The Israeli Supreme Court said in a ruling in 2009 that "the material that points to Jabarin and his involvement in terrorist activities is reliable material."
According to the Supreme Court "Jabarin is a terrorist who is not ashamed of the murders and attempted murders, which have nothing to do with rights, and, by contrast, denies the basic right of all, the most fundamental fundamental rights, without which no other rights - the right to life. " Steinberg said that "Mr. Jabarin has ties to the PFLP terrorist group, specialized in hijackings and carry out suicide bombings and political assassinations.
