Read enough. HRW is a leftie group and they don't want us spying on terror groups and recruiting informants. Soros gave them $100M in 2010. HRW has campaigned for Saudi money too: HRW raises funds in Saudi Arabia by demonizing IsraelIn May 2009, leaders of Human Rights Watch (HRW) visited Saudi Arabia – one of the major violators of the norms that HRW claims to promote – to raise funds for the organization. Arab news reported that “ senior members” of HRW – including Middle East Division director Sarah Leah Whitson, and Hassan Elmasry, a member of the International Board of Directors and the ME Division’s Advisory Committee – attended a “welcoming dinner” and encouraged “prominent members of Saudi society” to finance their work. HRW’s anti-Israel obsession was stated as the major reason for holding this Saudi fundraiser: “The group is facing a shortage of funds because of the global financial crisis and the work on Israel and Gaza, which depleted HRW’s budget for the region.” ........ Whitson also visited Libya in April, praising the totalitarian regime for its “ spirit of reform,” and wrote about this visit in the publication, Foreign Policy. ngo-monitor.org
