Recommendable! Similar disturbing tendencies can be observed for European based non governmental organizations as well.
It is a very concerning trend! Non governmental organizations were for a long time seen as a force for good! Some even received a Nobel Prize.
If I am not mistaken, e.g. Amnesty International has been criticized for decades that their work was politicized.
"Kenneth Roth, the executive director of Human Rights Watch, will step down at the end of August after nearly 30 years at the helm.
Roth brags about his legacy on paper: a tenfold increase in both staff and budget and a share of the 1997 Nobel Prize. In reality, he has presided over the erosion of the group’s reputation. Roth shifted Human Rights Watch from careful research to putting politics and ego before truth. Under Roth’s stewardship, Human Rights Watch solicited funds from Saudi Arabia in order to demonize Israel. The group even collaborated with a front organization founded by a designated al Qaeda financier.
Amnesty International has not been much better. ..."
