Mass murdering Ayatollah Khamenei regime relies entirely on Amnesty International chief @AgnesCallamard who devoted her UN career to passionately echoing Iran's narrative on the killing of terrorist mastermind Gen. Qassem Soleimani—which actually made the world a safer place.
When Amnesty chief Agnès Callamard was a UNHRC expert, she sprang into action within minutes of their deaths to eulogize Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps commanders Qassem Soleimani and Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, and to condemn their killings as "illegal."
Moments after Soleimani was killed, @AgnesCallamard launched into a tweet storm declaring the U.S. airstrike “unlawful,” saying it “violates international human rights law.” Later she presented a major report on this to the UNHRC—which was adored by #Iran. unwatch.org/top-un-human-r…
When terrorist Bin Laden was killed, the UN chief was "very much relieved that justice has been done to such a mastermind of international terrorism."

When terrorist Qassem Soleimani was killed, UN monitor @AgnesCallamard instantly declared it "illegal."

When Amnesty International chief @AgnesCallamard was the UN expert on executions, she was 22 times more interested in defending terrorist mastermind Qassem Soleimani than the 1500 innocent Iranian protesters slaughtered by the Ayatollah Khamenei regime.
It's not accidental that Amnesty International chose Agnes Callamard to be its new secretary-general.

Supporting misogynists, homophobes and terrorists is not a bug at Amnesty, it's a feature.

Emotional UNHRC rep @NilsMelzer threatens to undermine trust in the United Nations.

Images he shows are old—from March 2021—and the officers are already being prosecuted.

He shared alt-right sources with 0 verification.

I told him this last night.
🧵:
Note:

1. UNHRC "expert" @nilsmelzer shared a tweet from @visegrad24, even though it's a pro-Viktor Orban propaganda account that openly promotes racism like this tweet opposing "mixed-ethnicity" societies.

2. The video— presenting images from The Hague in March as if it were news from Amsterdam this week—is from @Konfederacja_, a Polish anti-gay, antisemitic party.

What kind of UN expert launches an official tirade—tagging @DutchMFA—with zero verification?

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.

“I deeply appreciate the valuable work performed by UN Watch. Informed and independent evaluation of the United Nations’ activities will prove a vital source as we seek to adapt the Organization to the needs of a changing world.”
— Kofi Annan, United Nations Secretary-General
Source: Letter by United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan to Ambassador Morris B. Abram, Chairman of United Nations Watch, January 30, 1997
UN Watch enjoyed a long relationship with Mr. Annan. Even as he noted being “on the receiving end of some sharp criticism from UN Watch,” Annan encouraged our work and understood the value of an outside watchdog holding the world body accountable to the UN Charter's principles.

On this day in 1944, Nazi troops occupying Holland urged a truce by broadcasting Silent Night and 🇨🇦 Canadian soldiers answered with a withering hail of mortar fire.
More than 7,600 Canadians died in the eight-month campaign to liberate the Netherlands, town by town, canal by canal, in a tremendous sacrifice for the cause of freedom.
The Dutch pay tribute to their liberators by lighting candles on Christmas Eve at all the war graves, below at the Canadian and British war cemetery in Bergen op Zoom. This year due to the pandemic there was no public audience, but the candles were placed and lit once again.
