Human Rights Watch

A truly humanitarian organization would not contemplate, let alone attempt to sustain, the immoral position of using force to achieve objectives. Even if you believe that Syria's Assad responded to the US' "red line" threat of military retaliation by crossing that line, it just proves how ineffective that retaliation would be. This is something that is part of the core of every true pacifist humanitarian, and to see the leader of a once-ideologically-sound organization not merely buying in to the notion of strikes for peace, but arguing steadfastly for it, is sad indeed.
