Amnesty International’s reaction to the murder of Henry Nowak has prompted outrage, with the organization having nothing to say about the atrocious and inhumane actions of the police during the incident, but sharply condemning the “political commentary” in the wake of Nowak’s death.
“At a time when hate crimes are rising, and violence and fear are becoming a daily reality for people of colour and migrants, calls for ‘cold, hard rage’ are completely reckless. Henry Nowak’s murder is an awful tragedy and his family have said “we do not want his death to be used to create further division, hatred or tension”. The very least politicians can do is respect that,”wrote Amnesty International.
Amnesty International is more outraged at the “political commentary” surrounding Henry Nowak’s death than his actual death. Shameful.https://t.co/tmRWvVC1bU
Not everyone is happy about Amnesty International’s remarks on the case, which has up until now, said nothing about the manner in which the police handcuffed a dying Nowak as he bled out from eight stab wounds.
Swedish MEP Charlie Weimers wrote on X, “Amnesty has been morally bankrupt for a long time. A pure left-wing organization.
Amnesty är moraliskt bankrutt sedan länge. En ren vänsterorganisation.https://t.co/6W2UaEgNdW
He was responding to a comment from Lauren Chen, who wrote: “Incredible statement from Amnesty International UK on Henry Nowak: Not a single word of conveying outrage or horror over the brutal murder, or of how police left him to die without dignity. Instead, their statement is about policing thepolitical commentaryaround the case. I kid you not. What a grotesque betrayal of any moral purpose.These NGOs aren’t just useless – they actively despise you. They are hostile to everything you value and everything you hold dear.”
Amnesty International, however, is known for its pro-migration and left-wing stances and has a long history of funding from the Open Society Foundation of George Soros. Nevertheless, the organization is often critical of police conduct, which makes it all the more remarkable that the organization has nothing to say about the police’s actions in this case.
