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: 🧵
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.”
3/ Therefore, Khan played a direct role in shielding Hamas terrorists who worked at UNRWA, such as Mohammed Abu Ittiwi and Fathi Sharif. Without any basis, Khan arbitrarily blocked human rights activists from reporting on systemic antisemitism incited by the teachers of UNRWA.
4/ As UN human rights council chief in 2021, Nazhat Shameem Khan selected Israel hater Navi Pillay to chair the UNHRC's permanent inquiry against Israel.
Khan is now ICC Deputy Prosecutor in The Hague. She hasn't recused herself from meeting Pillay and taking her submissions.

5/ Hamas rejoiced: As ICC Deputy Prosecutor, Nazhat Shameem Khan unethically met in The Hague with the Israel-hating figures—including Navi Pillay and Miloon Kothari—whom she had shamefully appointed to the UNHRC commission of inquiry targeting Israel. asianewslb.com/?page=article&…
6/ After she abused her UNHRC presidency to appoint rabid Israel haters to the perpetual commission of inquiry targeting Israel, Nazhat Shameem Khan became ICC Deputy Prosecutor. Here she is meeting with PLO foreign minister Riad Malki during his visit to the ICC in June 2022.
7/ A mere 19 days after the October 7th Hamas invasion and massacre of Israelis, Nazhat Shameem Khan again met in The Hague with the PLO's Riad Malki, to receive “evidence of the recent Israeli crimes against the Palestinian people.” english.wafa.ps/Pages/Details/…
8/ For more on the bigoted anti-Israel members of the perpetual Pillay Commission who were deliberately appointed for their bias by Nazhat Shameem Khan, in violation of the UN's own rules of impartiality, see here: unwatch.org/pillay-commiss…
