So,Irene Khan and Kate Gilmore are fighting poverty on a personal front and doing very well ! I am sure they will deserve it and be in much more need than the 20 billion poverty stricken people that they apparently represented.Mother Terasa would have been impressed !

Amnesty International works like the IMF and World Bank. All three are nothing more than a bunch of thieves. It's time that the rest of the world stop listening to those cockroaches.
