Albanese: The Special Rapporteur from the Empire of Lies

The Special Rapporteur from the Empire of Lies
The appointment of a declared anti-Semite as the UN’s authorized representative is a welcome step, exposing the hypocrisy and antisemitism of the entire organization.

There’s nothing good to say about the Italian-Tunisian anti-Semite Francesca Albanese, except for her consistency. She was the legal advisor to the terrorist organization “UNRWA,” lectured at Bethlehem University on her favorite topic: “Palestinian oppression by Israel,” flirted with old antisemitism when she wrote: “A Jewish lobby controls the US,” and published an entire book, under legal pretense of course, about Israel’s law violations. This was enough for the UN to announce to her one day in 2022: “You’re hired! You’re exactly who we were looking for as the special, official, and objective ‘Reporter’ for Israel’s crimes against the oppressed Palestinians in the occupied territories.”
Armed with her bionic glasses, engineered to magnify all Jewish sins, Francesca went into the field to do what she does best: present the Jewish state as an illegal entity, legally speaking of course, and report on an inverted reality where the attacked is the attacker and vice versa.
Anyone who thought the official appointment would cause the incoming Reporter to soften her language or adopt a somewhat more objective image was greatly mistaken. Even with a business card bearing the UN’s name, Francesca consistently and systematically, and legally of course, justifies Palestinian violence, equates the Nakba with the Holocaust, reinforces claims that Israel commits apartheid, and calls for an arms embargo on Israel. Even the October 7th massacre didn’t particularly impress her, and afterward, she justified the killing of Israelis, reported that Israel was the one committing genocide, and didn’t forget to report that Israeli testimonies about sexual assault were fabricated.
Like a Tasmanian devil on steroids, she reports and reports, and always – from an inverted world, where organized Jewish terror threatens peace-seeking Palestinians. This week, as almost every week, the Reporter made headlines again when she reported similarities between Netanyahu and Hitler, and that the elimination of arch-murderer Sinwar was “inhumane and unjust” because he legally should have stood trial, alongside Israel’s leaders.
Francesca is no innocent mistake. If her conduct wasn’t to her employers’ liking, she would have long been sent back to the boot-shaped country with boot marks on her behind. But her ongoing rampage proves: Francesca is the very embodiment of today’s UN, an organization that exists, it sometimes seems, for one purpose: to be a tool for an entire world led by 57 Muslim countries to attack one small country trying to survive.
While I’m not a “Special Reporter,” I can identify an anti-Semite when I see one, and I actually prefer Francesca’s type. True, we’ve gotten used to the polite anti-Semites who say “Israel has the right to defend itself,” and then, in a surprising turn, call for an arms embargo on Israel so it can’t do so. I prefer the Special Reporter, a proud, direct, clear anti-Semite, who says explicitly, with legal backing of course, that Israel has no right to defend itself, and that killing Jews is so important.
Because only this way will we better understand what we’re facing, without the pretense, polished statements, and laundered words that no one has the energy to hang out to dry anymore. This way we’ll better identify today’s UN – antisemitic, hypocritical, completely identified with the axis of evil, and therefore irrelevant, and should be taken in the right proportions.
And Francesca… let her continue to spread her poison, like her fascist forefathers, and remind us and the whole world that we have no one to rely on but ourselves. Because if Sinwar was “eliminated in an unjust way,” I’m proud of this injustice, and expect us to persist in it until all terrorists are eliminated. That’s how it should be. Legally speaking, of course.
