Criticism
NGO Monitor, a pro-Israel non-governmental organization with the stated aim of "monitoring other non-governmental organizations" operating in the Middle East, disputes Medical Aid for Palestinians describing itself as "non-political" and "non-partisan", due to the group's work "in advocacy on behalf of the Palestinians instead of providing medical care and aid to those in need." MAP describes itself as engaged in "advocacy work."

Famous quotes containing the word criticism:
“Parents sometimes feel that if they don’t criticize their child, their child will never learn. Criticism doesn’t make people want to change; it makes them defensive.”
—Laurence Steinberg (20th century)
“A bad short story or novel or poem leaves one comparatively calm because it does not exist, unless it gets a fake prestige through being mistaken for good work. It is essentially negative, it is something that has not come through. But over bad criticism one has a sense of real calamity.”
—Rebecca West (1892–1983)
“Like speaks to like only; labor to labor, philosophy to philosophy, criticism to criticism, poetry to poetry. Literature speaks how much still to the past, how little to the future, how much to the East, how little to the West.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
