Hoekstra pointed out that Germany, the US and the UK rejected the report, as well, and said that calling Israel an apartheid state does not help resolve the conflict and reach a two-state solution.</blockquote>

Who Was Khader Adnan?
While Human Rights Watch’s Israel and Palestine Director [[Omar Shakir]] gushed about how Adnan “valiantly struggled” and “dies [with] his head raised high,” the reality is that Adnan had been convicted for encouraging and inciting terror attacks on innocent Israeli civilians and was likely on his way to a further conviction while awaiting trial.
In fact, video footage of Adnan speaking at a rally gives a good insight into his views. “Oh Quds Brigades, strike a blow! Oh Quds Brigades, shake the earth! Who among you is Hasan Abu Zaid [suicide bomber who killed five civilians]? Who among you is the next suicide bomber? Who among you will carry the next explosive belt? Who among you will fire the next bullets? Who among you will have his body parts blown all over?” Adnan can be seen screaming to an excited mob of Palestinians.</small></blockquote></ref> twisted Omar Shakir, hailed Iranian backed Islamic Jihad leader terrible Khader Adnan.<ref>Ari Ingel @OGAride:<blockquote>
@HRW Middle East head, Omar Shakir, hailing Iranian backed Islamic Jihad leader Khader Adnan (a terrorist who espouses horrific fundamentalist rhetoric) a hero. This says far more about Omar and Human Rights Watch than anything.
(Readers added context: He was a Senior member of Islamic Jihad and died as a result of a hunger strike. He called for and praised suicide bombing of civilian Israelis. He was found unresponsive in cell after refusing medical treatment since February [2023] arrest).
