BREAKING: The President of the UN Human Rights Council is reportedly planning to evade his legal duty to convey to the plenary our objection to the reappointment of Francesca Albanese (per HRC 8/PRST/2) by claiming that her violations of the Code of Conduct are not “persistent.” Image
Image
2/ Any refusal to convey our objection to Albanese’s reappointment by claiming her violations aren’t “persistent” would be a specious excuse. The President's duty under 8/PRST/2 is to transmit, not judge. In any case, our 60-page dossier shows clear persistent misconduct.
3/ Here are 60 pages of Francesca Albanese's grave, numerous and indeed non-stop violations of the Code of Conduct from the moment she took office in May 2022 until October 2024:

For more examples of her wild vitriol, just check out @FranceskAlbs.unwatch.org/wp-content/upl…

Antisemitism Leads to Madness: Leftist Irish politician Clare Daly, an avowed feminist, covers herself in Islamic garb to join pro-Iran Jihadis at Houthi conference in Yemen that repeatedly called for “Death to America! Death to Israel! A Curse Upon the Jews! Victory to Islam.”
You can also see Clare Daly in front row on the far left joining the Jihadi crowd to shake her fist in approval as the speaker, a former ANC MP who converted to Islam to marry his fourth wife, chants “Viva Hamas” & “Viva Hezbollah.”
3/ For a feminist, Irish left-wing politician Clare Daly seems to repeatedly enjoy covering herself in religious Islamic garb. Here she is falsely praising Iraq's Popular Mobilisation Forces for their “egalitarian nature” and “inclusiveness”: Image

No joke: Meet the new Chair of the U.N. Women's Rights Commission. Image
2/ Ambassador Abdulaziz M. Alwasil of Saudi Arabia is now chairing the U.N. commission on the status of women, “the principal global intergovernmental body exclusively dedicated to the promotion of gender equality, the rights and the empowerment of women.” unwomen.org/en/how-we-work…
3/ @UN_Women and their chief @SimaBahous are even cheering their pride in having this Sheikh from Saudi Arabia—a country that imprisons and tortures women's rights activists—as Chair of their U.N. Women's Rights Commission: Image

@faniaoz @ICRC_ilot 🧵 1/ Out of 187 tweets by the Red Cross on the conflict, including by ICRC president  Mirjana Spoljaric Egger and director Robert Mardini, 77% criticized Israel. Only 7% criticized Hamas. So the Red Cross is 10 times more critical of Israel than Hamas. unwatch.org/report-red-cro…
@faniaoz @ICRC_ilot 2/ Red Cross officials told the family of a female hostage held by Hamas in Gaza not to worry about their daughter's need for daily medication — and that they should worry about Gazans instead.
@faniaoz @ICRC_ilot 3/ Red Cross said last year they would "investigate" their viciously anti-Israel and anti-neutrality head of office. Nine months have passed. Never heard a thing from them:

BREAKING: U.N. Special Rapporteur Mofokeng is now calling me an “evil scum” “white man” after I called for her to be disciplined for tweeting “F**k off” to Israel's prime minister. Mofokeng actually sits on the U.N. committee overseeing all 86 U.N. human rights experts. 🧵 Image
2/ Doubling down on her violations of the UN Code of Conduct—which require to act with probity, integrity & good faith—Mofokeng unleashed a rant against me replete with racism, obscenities & insults. Her actions bring the UN into disrepute and @antonioguterres cannot stay silent. Image
@antonioguterres 3/ Any individual who resorts to racism, obscenities and insults is demonstrably unsuited to serve as a human rights expert or in any other position at the United Nations.
