A senior official with the human rights organization Amnesty International has been reprimanded for making an anti-Semitic joke about several British lawmakers.

Kristyan Benedict, campaigns manager for Amnesty’s United Kingdom affiliate, drew widespread criticism from Jewish leaders and others after making an offensive joke about several British lawmakers who are Jewish.

Benedict has a history of taking controversial stances against the Jewish state and once threatened to “smack” a pro-Israel writer on his “little bald head.”

His most recent comments took aim at Jewish members of Parliament for their support of Israel during its most recent conflict with Palestinian terrorists in the Gaza Strip.

Was there an actual joke here? What I read seemed to lack a punch line. Dull.

Actually, the so called ‘Amnesty’ International is the joke.
A better name for the group would be ‘Amnesty for Some Special People But Not For Others International’.
