Human Rights Watch lists Trump as threat to human rights
By Brooke Seipel - 01/14/17 10:01 AM EST
Human Rights Watch is listing President-elect Donald Trump as a threat to human rights, calling his campaign a vivid illustration of the politics of intolerance.
Donald Trumps election as US president after a campaign fomenting hatred and intolerance, and the rising influence of political parties in Europe that reject universal rights, have put the postwar human rights system at risk, the group said in a Friday statement announcing a new report.
The 687-page World Report analyzes Trumps campaign, pointing to his rhetoric as a cause for worry over human rights violations.
(Trumps) campaign floated proposals that would harm millions of people, including plans to engage in massive deportations of immigrants, to curtail womens rights and media freedoms, and to use torture, the report says, quoting Human Rights Watch Executive Director Kenneth Roth.
Unless Trump repudiates these proposals, his administration risks committing massive rights violations in the US and shirking a longstanding, bipartisan belief, however imperfectly applied, in a rights-based foreign policy agenda.

How do they feel about “deplorables?”
His many-tentacled organization provides money, education, scholarships and other tools for the purpose of advocacy on human rights issues in the U.S. and abroad, and to assist and aid "dissidents in closed societies".
Evidently, the U.S. is now considered a "closed society" by this shady group of international operators who lurk in the shadows....and now we know that dissidents to Mr. Trump ( tagged as a "threat to human rights" ) are now being "assisted" and "aided" in known and unknown ways by this particular monied organization.
Our society is crawling with murky subversive groups of activists and propagandists we know little or nothing about.
Thanks for casting light on "Human Rights Watch" by posting this, Sub Driver !
BTW, Human Rights founder Mr. Robert L. Bernstein holds a B.S. degree from Harvard University.

... a vivid illustration of the politics of intolerance...
Definite intolerance of those who want to maim, murder, and enslave the American people and the world all in the name of a false prophet and his fantasy side kick “god.”
So a Nobel prize is not an option?
Well he DID call a woman fat. Much worse than beheading, stoning and burning people alive in my book
The excuses for how are just lol. We live in an insane world.
Human Rights Watch. LOL! A bunch of race pimps afraid to get a real job.
I don’t care what Human Rights Watch thinks or says.
I’d rather watch paint dry.

Human Rights Watch is the greatest threat to human rights.

***YAWN***
All this because of a few insignificant words, grabbed by the media, blown up all out of proportion, and broadcast all over the world.
Trump is not like that at all.
It is an honor to be on their threat list.
Winning.
