In 2020, the online news organization The Intercept revealed that HRW’s then-Executive Director, Ken Roth, accepted a $470,000 donation from a Saudi billionaire based on the condition that HRW would not use the money to protect the rights of the persecuted LGBTQ-plus community in the Middle East.
Roth was compelled to return the donation after The Intercept report.
On what basis are you making your claim that Palestinians are a distinct ethnic group? Even pro-Palestinian organizations refer to them as Arabs. As far as I’m aware, Palestinians only began existing as a group when local Arab nationalists emerged as a regional group opposing Jews in the levant.
I think calling Palestine a nation and not an ethnicity is more accurate, but I will correct my language if you can provide me a source.
Yes, and Sephardic Jews refer to themselves as Jews. They’re still a distinct ethnic group. The difference according to you is, apparently, ‘Wikipedia says so.’
Looking forward to you providing me with better sources than Wikipedia then…

I’m guessing you won’t consider those “better sources” than a page anyone with an agenda can edit. But I’ll keep going if you want.
