Human Rights Figures Not Credible: Now With More Video

About a week ago we commented on Amnesty International's weird fascination with everything Israeli. During that post we commented that their casualty figures were... er... drawn from a testimonial community regulated by epistemic norms that were not exactly trustworthy. We linked to a CAMERA video on YouTube demonstrating said lack of veracity, but embedding on the video was disabled at the time. Through various people in CAMERA who are good enough to return our emails and IMs, that's now been fixed. Human rights organizations lie:

Of course, this is wasted on all of you since we're sure that each and every one of you clicked through on the original post. And by "each and every one" we mean "approximately ten percent".
