Hamas in Gaza just fired rockets at Israeli cities of Ashdod & Ashkelon, injuring a 62-year-old man in the torso & a 28-year-old man in the limbs.

Peace accords were just signed between Israel & two Arab states.

UN rights chief @mbachelet ignores all the above, attacks Israel.
I took the floor at the United Nations:

Madam President,

We meet on a historic day. For the past century, the Middle East has been the scene of war, bloodshed, enmity and suffering.

In the Arab-Israeli conflict, hostilities included deadly wars in 1948, ‘56, ‘73, and ‘82...
as well as other deadly wars of attrition and terror. In Israel and Arab countries, an estimated 230,000 men, women and children were injured or lost their lives.

Worldwide, the conflict sparked fears of a clash between the nuclear-armed superpowers, while the Arab Oil Embargo..
of 1973 shocked the global economy, quadrupled the price of oil, and triggered a worldwide energy crisis. Those applying this embargo included Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates.

Madam President,

Today is a historic day. In the 20th century, a total of two peace accords...
were achieved between Israel and Arab states — Egypt in 1979, and Jordan in 1994.

Yet today, in one day, that number will double. Only moments from now, on the White House Lawn, both the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain will sign peace agreements with Israel.
The three countries have already begun speaking of a new era — of peace, normalization, mutual cooperation, trade, tourism, prosperity and hope.

The peace agreements have been welcomed by countries around the globe, including Egypt, Oman, and Saudi Arabia, which itself...
announced that it will allow overflight rights to planes flying to and from Israel.

Today is indeed a day of hope.

But I am confused.

If the United Nations and this Human Rights Council truly care about human rights and peace, why did the United Nations Human Rights Chief...
just speak here, making numerous references to the Middle East, yet without mentioning once this historic moment of peace and hope?

Why, instead, did she only point the finger of blame at one side — at Israel?
Why did she not mention the peace agreements being signed today in Washington?

Does this Human Rights Council truly want peace and human rights for everyone?

Why does the Agenda of the council single out only one state, Israel?
Why are half the condemnatory resolutions of this council targeting only one state, Israel?

Why does this council's expert on the Palestinian territories examine only Israel's actions, while turning a blind eye to the abuses of Hamas and Islamic Jihad?
On this historic day, when Arab countries and Israel come together in peace, the question before the United Nations is a crucial question: Do they truly want peace, do they truly want human rights?

UNRWA is in panic. They're frightened of getting replaced. Watch them do everything to kill the new 🇮🇱🇺🇸 humanitarian effort in Gaza. UNRWA is promoting the fantastic and grotesque lie that Israel & the U.S. hatched a plot to use aid to murder Gazans. Remember: UNRWA is Hamas. 🧵
L: Suhail al-Hindi, former head of 30,000 UNRWA employees' union — and member of the Hamas Political Bureau in Gaza.

R: Yahya Sinwar, fellow member of Hamas Politburo who masterminded the October 7th massacre.

Remember: UNRWA is Hamas. Image

Dear @Georgetown: You list Francesca Albanese as an “international lawyer.” Indeed she often calls herself that.

But she just confessed to never taking the exam, and having no license. 🔽

Please delete the misinformation. And remove this Hamas supporter from your university. Image
2/ In most legal systems, the term “lawyer” is reserved for those who passed the bar exam and have been admitted to the bar.

Francesca Albanese never took a bar exam. She was never admitted to practice in any country.

Thus in any professional or legal sense she is not a lawyer.
3/ Despite never having taken a bar exam and never having been admitted to practice law in any country in the world, Francesca Albanse has repeatedly described herself as a “lawyer.”

Last May, she told Italian TV: “I'm a technical expert, I'm a lawyer.”

1/ On Sky News, I explained how the UN and global media spread a deadly lie: 14,000 babies were “about to die” in Gaza. A total lie. No basis. No fact-checking. Just the latest blood libel dressed up as a humanitarian message by a top UN official and broadcast around the world.
2/ The Total Lie started early. Ten days after the October 7th Hamas massacre, media headlines screamed “Israel bombs Gaza hospital, kills 500.” A total lie. It was Islamic Jihad. The blast hit a parking lot. But the lie was spread by the UN, Amnesty & Canadian FM Melanie Joly.
3/ Why do such lies flourish? Many in the world want it. Newsrooms rush to fill a reserved spot on their front pages for the headline “Israel kills innocents.” Their fact verification systems short circuit. The public rarely hears the corrections. Only the slander sticks.

KHAN OUT, KHAN IN: ICC swaps one morally corrupt prosecutor with another. Karim Khan stepped down over allegations he raped his employee repeatedly—and indicted Israeli leaders to divert attention. Now Deputy Prosecutor Nazhat Khan replaces him. But I saw how unethical she is: 🧵Image
Image
When she used to chair UN Human Rights Council sessions, Nazhat Khan violated freedom of speech to appease the world's worst tyrannies. Here she is cutting me off after a few seconds—as demanded by Cuba & the PLO—after I tried to simply read out the names of tyrannies who spoke.
Two years before Oct. 7, when I warned that UNRWA teachers glorify Hitler & incite hatred of Jews, Nazhat Khan cut me off. She said I made “derogatory, insulting & inflammatory remarks”—by quoting their own posts. “This amounts to personal attacks. The statement is out of order.”

Dear Secretary-General @antonioguterres: This is legal notice that the purported renewal of Francesca Albanese as “Special Rapporteur on human rights in the Palestinian territories” was unlawful, and is therefore null and void. Her terms ends Wednesday: 🧵 unwatch.org/wp-content/upl…Image
Image
2/ As you know, her purported renewal, announced at the conclusion of the 58th session of the Human Rights Council, was carried out illegally, in direct contravention of HRC Presidential Statement 8/PRST/2—adopted by consensus in 2008, and enshrined in Art. 7 of the Manual of Operations of the Special Procedures—which imposes a clear and binding obligation: “The President of the Human Rights Council will convey to the Council information brought to his or her attention… concerning cases of persistent non-compliance by a mandate-holder” with the Code of Conduct, particularly in advance of reappointments. International law experts have deemed 8/PRST/2 one of the Council’s four “institution building texts.” Contempt for this core rule carries consequences.
3/ As you are aware, a formal submission with a 56-page dossier documenting Ms. Albanese’s gross and systematic violations of that Code—including breaches of impartiality, integrity, and restraint—was submitted by United Nations Watch to the President of the Council on 26 March 2025, receipt of which was duly acknowledged by the President’s office. In addition, letters to the President were filed by the Governments of Argentina, Hungary, and Israel, as well as by the Chairman of the U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee, who called on the President to exercise his “sworn duty to utilize [his] authority as stated in Presidential Statement 8/2 (PRST/8/2) to ‘convey to the Council any information brought to [his] attention concerning cases of persistent non-compliance by a mandate-holder...’”Astonishingly, in violation of his duties and of the prescribed legal procedure, the President refused to do so. Likewise, the Council violated its own duty to “consider such information” and to “act upon it as appropriate.”
