Clearly you want to lump all human rights organizations into one discredited pile. I'm not referring to human rights organizations. I'm referring to one particular organization. Given their track record, and the fact that they openly share their methodology, the odds are overwhelmingly strong that they've got it right. And I guess there's stopping you from referring to alleged past disagreements. I'm just going to ignore them since there's no point in disputing such claims.

"You can go on about Amnesty being pure as snow, and all that" And I'm the one trying to put words in someone else's mouth? So, for the record, Amnesty is not as pure as snow. Who is? The Wall Street Journal recently got it wrong about the hospital bombing. At least I'm satisfied that they did. Perhaps you're confusing what you might see as Amnesty's naive denunciations of all acts of violence regardless of the circumstances. But that has nothing to do with the way they gather evidence. They shared their methodology openly. I have no doubt that Amnesty, just like any other investigative body, can come to the wrong conclusions. But their body of work speaks for itself.

That's your justification? That it's still free? Not if you want timely care. Record number of Brits paying for medical treatment amid NHS backlog crisis Around 227,000 people sought private treatment in the first 3 months of 2023 The NHS waiting list is now the highest since records began in August 2007 https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-12509757/Record-number-Brits-paying-medical-treatment-amid-NHS-backlog-crisis.html

BINGO!

Again, with the Pavlovian "nitpicking" response. Amnesty has repeatedly demonstrated its bone fides throughout the world when it comes to armed conflicts. As that article of theirs concerning Hamas shows. Short of a rant, could their condemnation have been any stronger? Or are you going to await some impendent official confirmation of those actions by Hamas as well? But if you think such caution is warranted, I guess you're going to have to wait on a judgement of whose bomb landed on that hospital in Gaza. I personally think the evidence is overwhelming that it was some Palestinian force that is responsible. But maybe that's just me and my low standards speaking.

Given the last sentence in your comment, the sincerity of your sentiments is doubtful.
