Just about everything Israel does to defend itself is 'illegal' in the eyes of Amnesty International. During the [[Israel]] [[Lebanese]] conflict of 2006, Amnesty was accusing Israel of war crimes. According to the [[Jerusalem Post]]'s [[Alan Dershowitz]], through restraint, Israel was able to minimize the number of civilian casualties in Lebanon, but Amnesty criticized nevertheless. Yet on [[Hezbollah]]'s best efforts to embed itself in population centers and to use civilians as human shields, Amnesty said nothing. "Bigotry, pure and simple.", said Dershowitz.<ref>[https://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1154525974885&pagename=JPost/JPArticle/ShowFull Amnesty Int'l redefines 'war crimes'] The Jerusalem Post, Aug 30, 2006</ref>
