14-02-01 Human Rights organizations bias the data to serve US interests

My experience all along is that many organizations such as Human Rights Watch, Transparency International, etc, will deliberately omit data about Human Rights violations by the US gov against the people of the US.

In an extreme case, Transparency International rep explained to me that in the US they only do fund raising, which they use to report on other parts of the world...

Below is the other part of the same equation....

In short: 
Since Human Rights has been the cause celebre for the US to lead innumerable wars, it has become imperative to match the data to the political needs...

Tamara Pearson, Venezuelaanalysis.com: In the six pages that Human Rights Watch (HRW) dedicates to Venezuela in its World Report 2014, released this week, it manages to tell at least 30 serious lies, distortions, and omissions. Pointing out these lies is important, because many people believe that HRW is a neutral authority on human rights.
