UNBELIEVABLE: The organization that the BBC credited as "the world's leading association of genocide scholars" merely requires a $30 fee to join.

The International Association of Genocide Scholars has no background checks and members with names like "Adolf Hitler" are free to vote on resolutions accusing Israel of genocide.

After this was brought to light, the once easily accessible members list on the website was hidden.

Nothing shady going on here, right?
