Amnesty: 'Defensive' jihad okay
The 'human rights' defenders at Amnesty International have decided that 'defensive' jihad is okay. In response to the petition, AI Secretary-General Claudio Cordone has issued a letter in vigorous defense of AI's collaboration with Begg and Cageprisoners. Steve Emerson's Investigative Project on Terrorism has the story, here. In the letter, Cordone states AI's position outright: advocacy of "jihad in self defence" is not antithetical to human rights. That Islamists reserve unto themselves the right to determine when Islam is, as they put it, "under siege," and when, therefore, forcible jihad is justified, is plainly of no concern — only actions America's self-defense are worthy of condemnation.And actions in Israel's self-defense too.
But that goes without saying, doesn't it?

Its now kosher to murder Jews but its forbidden to harm their killers.
That's Amnesty International's new interpretation of "human rights." It should never be taken seriously again.
