A reminder that Amnesty International has lost its way.

It was founded to defend prisoners of conscience jailed by oppressive regimes.

Now Amnesty's focus is accusing Western democracies of racism while the organization itself supports misogynists, homophobes & terrorists.

🧵:
In 2010, Gita Sahgal, then head of the organization's gender unit, was fired for exposing Amnesty's shameful ties and support for Britain's most famous Taliban advocate, former Guantanamo Bay detainee Moazzam Begg. theguardian.com/world/2010/apr… Image
Supporting terrorists has been a recurring theme with Amnesty. In 2015, a senior employee of Amnesty International was found to have undeclared private links to men alleged to be key players in a secretive network of global Islamists, revealed The Times.

thetimes.co.uk/article/amnest…
Christopher Hitchens wrote that Amnesty’s actions backing the Taliban—and targeting whistleblower & women's rights chief Gita Sahgal—exemplified the organization’s “degeneration and politicization,” reflecting “a moral crisis that has global implications.” slate.com/news-and-polit…
In 2015, @amnesty's speaker said the 9/11 attacks were “sweet revenge”; & Europe made “the cult of the Holocaust & Jew-worshiping its religion.” He labeled gays “AIDS-spreading faggots.” Part of Hezbollah, he questions the existence of Nazi gas chambers. tabletmag.com/sections/news/…
Amnesty backed the pro-Taliban group "Cage," which promotes an ideology that mocks the values of tolerance, especially towards women.

Amnesty used Cage propaganda, shared logos with them, co-produced briefing papers & co-signed letters to the government. economist.com/britain/2015/0… Image
Rights activist Sigrid Rausing criticized Amnesty for "blurring" its original mission. The Economist: "A group which devotes more focus to rights abuses in Britain & America than those in Belarus & Saudi Arabia cannot expect to escape doubters' scrutiny." economist.com/international/… Image
In 2015, Amnesty justified hosting an anti-gay Holocaust denier to protest Islamophobia—due to "the significance of this issue" & as it "was not an endorsement of any of the views of the individual speaker." Yet in 2018 they saw fit to ban London's Jews. theguardian.com/world/2018/jan…
Amnesty International chief Agnes Callamard makes a moral equivalence between Nazi Germany and the American city of Minneapolis.

.@MarkJCarney Prime Minister, why did you appoint a Governor-General who admitted herself that as U.N. human rights chief she gave a free pass to the worst tyrannies, saying she was “constrained by the reality of the organization's power centers, including China and Russia”? Image
2/ In fact, as U.N. high commissioner from 2004-2008, Louise Arbour turned a blind eye to billions of victims in 153 countries, including of regimes in Algeria, Bangladesh, Belarus, North Korea, Libya, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Vietnam & Yemen.

🔗 Full report: unwatch.org/new-report-giv…Image
Image
3/ UN Watch's Aug. 2008 report revealed that in her official statements over a two-year period, Arbour criticized China only once—and that she never said a single word on Russia. Instead, she posed for pictures taking flowers from Vladimir Putin, legitimizing his brutal regime. Image

DAY OF INFAMY: New video shows the moment when Canada, Australia, UK, France, Germany, Netherlands, Finland, Norway, Austria and Switzerland joined the consensus decision to nominate Iran—and when they were repeatedly invited to object. They chose silence.
I regret that some democracies now suggest they never endorsed Iran for this UN committee that soon meets to address women's rights.

Ask your MP and foreign minister:

1. Yes or no, did our government join ECOSOC's April 8 consensus nomination of the Islamic Republic of Iran?
2. Yes or no, did the United States take the floor in that meeting to disassociate from the consensus nomination of Iran, stating that the regime threatens its neighbors, infringes on the Iranian people’s ability to exercise their basic human rights, and is thus unfit to serve?

GOOD NEWS: World Bank ousts husband of Hamas apologist Francesca Albanese from key post after we exposed him as a dangerous nutcase who for a decade promoted Jihadi terrorism and Holocaust inversion. Albanese lashes out in The Guardian: “The World Bank was completely craven.” 🧵 Image
2/ We demanded the World Bank hold Massimiliano Calì to account for extremist political conduct flagrantly violating his duty to “act responsibly in public statements” and avoid “compromising World Bank neutrality” and causing “reputational risks.”
Our 📨: unwatch.org/wp-content/upl…Image
Image
3/ Like his wife, Cali is a dangerous nutcase who says Israel “invents” terrorist attacks. He equates the IDF fighting Hamas rockets with the Nazis murdering Jews in the Warsaw ghetto. He collaborates with his wife in promoting Holocaust inversion. unwatch.org/world-bank-eco…

“Montréal is lost”: Journalist doesn’t feel safe covering pro-terror protesters that police “babysit” every week. In Toronto, three synagogues were just attacked by gunfire.

In Canada today, the jihadi mobs get police protection. Jews and journalists have to fend for themselves.
@TLNewmanMTL: “The group ‘Montreal for Palestine’ calls for jihad—like they've done weekly. No politicians in Canada seem to care. News outlets never mention it. Why is that?”

@MarkJCarney @PierrePoilievre @francoislegault @csiscanada @rcmpgrcpolice @SPVM
@TLNewmanMTL @MarkJCarney @PierrePoilievre @francoislegault @csiscanada @rcmpgrcpolice @SPVM 3/ Pro-Jihadis rally openly on the streets of my beloved hometown Montreal, pledging allegiance to “resistance” in Gaza (Hamas), “resistance” in Lebanon (Hezbollah), and “resistance” in Montreal. This terror supporter should be deported or prosecuted.

Mr. Secretary-General, when last month the Islamic Republic slaughtered tens of thousands of Iranians in two days, your response was to congratulate the murderers on the Islamic Revolution anniversary while your organization elevated them to multiple U.N. and human rights bodies.
2/ Reminder, @antonioguterres: Less than three weeks ago, on February 11, your UN elected the murderous regime Vice-Chair of the UN Commission for Social Development, which addresses “democracy, gender equality, and ensuring tolerance and non-violence.”
@antonioguterres 3/ Reminder, @antonioguterres: Twelve days ago, on February 16, your organization welcomed Islamic Regime rep Afsaneh Nadipour to start a new term on the U.N. Human Rights Council, as one of 18 experts on its Advisory Committee — addressing women's rights.

BREAKING: U.N. list shows Iran Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi to address U.N. Human Rights Council with Antonio Guterres on Feb. 23.

@antonioguterres, if you don't disinvite this mass murderer, we will be calling on Swiss police to have him arrested for crimes against humanity. Image

Horrible: “UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has congratulated Iran on the anniversary of the victory of the Islamic Revolution in a message to President Masoud Pezeshkian.”
en.irna.ir/news/86075281/…Image
@antonioguterres We are calling on the UN to release this shameful letter of congratulations to the Islamic Regime. It was reported in Iranian regime media but everything about the story sounds authentic, and in line with your past approach. The world needs to know the truth.
