Mitigating terror attacks - Amnesty International's latest contribution to "Human "Rights"

Elder of Ziyon..

From Amnesty:

The Israeli authorities must immediately remove a new outpost set up yesterday by Israeli settlers in the Nablus district of the occupied West Bank, Amnesty International said today.

The new outpost was set up following the killing of Evyatar Borovsky, a resident of the illegal Israeli settlement of Yitzhar, on Tuesday.

Borovsky, a civilian who was carrying a gun at the time of the attack, was stabbed and killed by a Palestinian man who was wounded and later arrested by Israeli forces.

By any definition, the murder of Evyatar Borovsky was a terror attack.

But look how Amnesty tries to mitigate it:

 - It was a "killing," not a murder

 - He lived in an "illegal settlement" - implying that he was somehow more deserving of death than someone else

 - He was "carrying a gun" - implying that he was a violent person, also more deserving of death than someone else
