I do not dispute genocide in Gaza, however Amnesty International in recent years lost a lot of it's credibility with several scandals etc. Having potential Russian ties. Why not pursue the matter on merits, and not on Amnesty's report which could damage the argument more than help it.
- I don't think Amnesty International's 300-page report will lessen the likelihood of Canada finally recognizing the genocide and recognizing Palestine as a state. I don't about AI's record on other issues
Amnesty Intrrnational sadly has been compromised. Tough to use it as evidence for anything at this point.
Maybe some other organizations have done similair that are more credible.
