Lost colleagues/supporters of Human Rights recently

2) Stephane Hessel (20 October 1917 – 26 February 2013) French holocaust survivor, helped draft the UN Declaration of Human Rights. While lots of media outlets reported his death, hardly any mainstream media dared to tell about his stance against Zionist occupation/colonization of Palestine. He once said: "In fact, the word that applies—that should be applied—is 'war crime' and even 'crime against humanity'. But this word must be used carefully, especially when one is in Geneva, the seat of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, who may have an important opinion on that issue. For my part, having visited Gaza, having seen the refugee camps with thousands of children, the manner in which they are bombed appears as a veritable crime against humanity."
