Pictured below is (more) rank hypocrisy by Francesca Albanese.
Left: she defends material suggesting all of Israel is actually Palestine, saying it's "racist" to oppose the material.
Right: She suddenly recognizes it's wrong to suggest a country is a different country.

Any reference to a couple of tweets by Albanese will inevitably understate the extent of her extremism.
And Smotrich is certainly an extremist, too.
Still, she shouldn't get a pass.

3/ Francesca Albanese should be called out. For the above, and for the rest of it.
For her endorsement of Richard Falk as a supposed expert on antisemitism.
Richard Falk, who enthusiastically promoted an antisemitic book by raving antisemite Gilad Atzmon.

Richard Falk, who enthusiastically promoted an antisemitic book by raving antisemite Gilad Atzmon.
4/ For her endorsement of John Mearsheimer as an authority on antisemitism.
Mearsheimer, too, blurbed Gilad Atzmon's book.
Mearsheimer, too, blurbed Gilad Atzmon's book.
5/ Just to be clear: Atzmon is a Holocaust-denying Nazi-apologist who blames the Jews for killing Jesus, for scheming and conspiring to rule the world, and for responsibility for American wars.

6/ She should be called out for retweeting propaganda by other antisemites/Holocaust deniers.
https://x.com/GileadIni/status/1562141478973067266
7/ She should be called out for charging the "Jewish lobby" with "subjugating" America. jewishinsider.com/2023/01/france…
8/ And for disingenuously claiming she didn't stand by her language from 2014…
…even while denying her words were antisemitic; and insisting critics of her words are part of a dark conspiracy; and lying about casualties to make her point.

https://x.com/GileadIni/status/1605315715791060992
9/ And even though, well after 2014, she had rushed to the defense of others who charged the "Jewish lobby" with controlling media.
https://x.com/GileadIni/status/1605315717464834048
10/ Indeed, for standing in solidarity with the person who made the charge, and for insisting it is "preposterous" to view as antisemitic the accusation that the Jewish lobby controls media.
11/ She should be called out for pretending civilians murdered by Palestinian terrorists were combatants (or "Israeli forces").
https://x.com/GileadIni/status/1606390886828544010
12/ At risk of sounding glib: the extremism and dishonestly we see above can be found in nearly every one of her utterances about Israel.
That doesn't mean Israel can't be criticized, or that a stopped watch can't be right twice a day.
It just means her behaviour is vile.

13/ Adding to the catalogue:
In the spirit of Albanese's lie that Israeli civilians killed in a terror attack were soldiers (see earlier tweet), she now absurdly argues that Israel doesn't have a right to self defense in the face of Palestinian attacks.

14/ Here, Albanese insists that Israel's military response this week—May 9, 2023—to Islamic Jihad's barrages of indiscriminate rockets last week—May 2, 2023—is what "violated" a ceasefire from last summer—August 7, 2022.
When you're not even trying, time doesn't have to matter.
When you're not even trying, time doesn't have to matter.
15/ BTW, unlike Israel's strike on the PIJ terror leadership, those indiscriminate Islamic Jihad rockets fired at Israeli population centers last week and this week are unequivocal war crimes.
But not a tweet from Albanese about them.
But not a tweet from Albanese about them.
16/ Here, Albanese shares a flagrantly doctored quote, which replaces the word actually used, "terrorists," with the word "Palestinians."
Ben Gvir is a terrible man. I despise him. But he isn't a UN rapporteur. Albanese, the person peddling hoax quotes, is.

17/ The quote in question:
https://x.com/HezkeiB/status/1673315808783523842
18/ Albanese pretends Israel bombed a hospital ("atrocity crimes") long, long after it was widely understood that a misfired Islamic Jihad rocket was responsible.
19/ Gaslighting by Albanese and a fellow rapporteur.
Exhibit A. Exhibit B.
Exhibit A. Exhibit B.
20/ She's not sure what happened on Oct 7:
https://x.com/GileadIni/status/1746698870279524545
21/ Albanese arguing that the killing of Jews by Hamas, a transparently antisemitic organization, isn't related to antisemitism.
Instead, she insists, it's ultimately Israel's responsibility.

22/ This (etc. etc.) is the Hamas she exculpates of antisemitic violence:
24/ Albanese knowing of but ignoring UN data so that she can spread disinformation.
https://x.com/Aizenberg55/status/1772618313987748267
26/ She's a cartoon character.
28/ Albanese continuing to smash the control-pad button.
https://x.com/GileadIni/status/1820579590818918578
29/ Some of the above examples of Francesca Albanese dishonestly are mentioned in this overview of the unhinged UN rapporteur:
https://x.com/GileadIni/status/1833515337461207531
30/ This, from the person who in UN circles is called a "UN expert," is unhinged.
31/ At @BrownUniversity, Albanese told students there's no such thing as antisemitism in Gaza, lied about the entry of humanitarian goods into Gaza, and misquoted officials.

33/ Francesca Albanese thread continues, down and down we go…
https://x.com/just_whatever/status/1848134813389127734
36/ Apparently Albanese promoted a conspiracy theory, propounded by a Holocaust denier, that blamed the CIA and Mossad for the Charlie Hebdo attack:
Not the first time she was enchanted by a Holocaust denier.

37/ Albanese stating that "there is no evidence of rape."
https://x.com/nicolomontarini/status/1851604161546064191
38/ Despite Albanese's rape denial, there is, of course, evidence of rape — including but not limited to this from Albanese's own UN.
39/ Albanese is, if anything, consistent. (Speaking strictly about her affinity for antisemites.)
https://x.com/just_whatever/status/1875962452648874270
40/ Albanese might not be an attorney in Italy, but she'll always be Hamas's attorney.
https://x.com/UNWatch/status/1956302771445010478
41/ Albanese, Very Serious Person.
42/ Utterly vile by the @nytimes.

"acecsnarf," in case you missed it, is Francesca backward— and is a name she uses on social media. (There's Francesca, and there's her husband Massimiliano, and I blotted out the kid since she didn't bother to.)
So yeah, she posted that Charlie Hebdo was an Israel/US false flag.

@nytimes 43/ Albanese, 2 years before Hamas perpetrated the worst attack on Jewish civilians since the Holocaust.
@nytimes 44/ On the occasion of International Women's Day 2024, Albanese slurs Israeli women as a class.
Not even the pretense of concern for their safety, though they were murdered, abducted, subject to sexual violence just a few months earlier and still suffered deadly rocket attacks.

@nytimes 46/ The idea that it's wrong to cheer the worst slaughter of Jews since the Holocaust and mock its victims counts as "absurd whining," in the view of bigoted UN rapporteur Francesca Albanese.
What a monster.
What a monster.
@nytimes 47/ Openly pro-Hezbollah propaganda by Francesca Albanese, supporter of war criminals.
