Human Rights Watch's office in Beirut: or the branch of the Hariri press office

HRW could not get itself to call for the unconditional release of innocent Lebanese held in prisons run by gangs of the Free Syrian Army.  Look at the language:  "To the extent possible, the government should also work to bring about the release of people kidnapped or abducted by the Syrian government or armed opposition groups..."  So the Lebanese government should just release the prisoners and not Qatar and Saudi Arabia and Turkey which fund and arms those thugs.
