Human Rights Watch has called on the [[United States]] to stop workplace discrimination on nationality and class inside the United States and other countries.  Critics claim that the organization does not even follow the standard they set. HRW hires nearly all of its employers from American and English nationalities, and its Committee members include only decisions makers from the upper class, none from the middle-income class. Nearly all of the organizations articles and reports are produced in English, HRW claims that they are not produced in more languages because of the cost of translation. The organization has asked for volunteers to translate reports and documents.  The organization has also been criticized as having a double standard in its dealing in the [[Middle East]].  President of the Zionist Organization of America, Morton Klein stated, "For Human Rights Watch to call on Israel and Jews not to live in Judea and Samaria is simply racist. Why is it that Arabs can live in Israel, and Arabs can live in the West Bank, and Jews cannot live in the West Bank?” <ref>NGO Monitor, 2005, http://www.ngo-monitor.org/archives/news/HRWLetter-NYSun.htm</ref>.
