Journalist Hammers US State Dept Reax over Amnesty Intl Israel Report

AP reporter Matt Lee hounded State Dept spokesperson Ned Price for rejecting Amnesty’s report accusing Israel of practicing “apartheid” and “oppression” against the Palestinian people.

The US State Dept refuted the report, as did more than a dozen Jewish and pro-Israel members of Congress. “I think that it is important, as the world’s only Jewish state, that the Jewish people must not be denied their right to self-determination, and we must ensure there isn’t a double standard being applied,” Price told reporters.

However, Lee accused Price of applying a double standard: “Why is it that all criticism of Israel from these groups is almost always rejected by the United States and yet accepted, welcomed, and endorsed when the criticism is of other countries, notably countries with which you have significant policy differences?”
