But that makes him a partial advocate, not an impartial arbiter he pretends to be. (Actually he does a shitty job pretending that he is anything other than an agenda- driven activist).

And blatant partiality is exactly what Amnesty Israel criticized in the report issued by their parent organization.

Clearly, being a partial advocate made him ill-suited for the position he held at Amnesty Israel. So did his rather unimpressive credentials and employment record.
