A leading human rights group has rejected a claim by its founder that it is biased against Israel.

In an article in the New York Times, he said the organisation had helped to turn Israel into a pariah state.

Mr Bernstein, who was chairman of Human Rights Watch from 1978 to 1998, said the group had been set up to pry open closed societies and advocate basic freedoms, and therefore had drawn a distinction between democratic and non-democratic states.
