”It’s soooooo unfaaaaaaair to have consequences for this!” [IsraelTimes] Czech Republic joins other European nations in demanding resignation, accuses independent expert of referring to Israel as ‘common enemy’ of humanity, which she deniesA UN human rights ...which are often intentionally defined so widely as to be meaningless... spokesperson on Friday said she was "very worried" about personal attacks on independent UN experts, after a growing number of European governments called for the resignation of Paleostinian territories rapporteur Francesca Albanese over recent anti-Israel comments. "We are very worried. We are concerned that UN officials, independent experts and judicial officials are increasingly subjected to personal attacks, threats and misinformation that distracts from the serious human rights issues," UN human rights office spokesperson Marta Hurtado said at a Geneva press briefing. UN rapporteurs are commissioned by the Geneva-based Human Rights Council to monitor and document specific human rights crises but are independent of the organization itself. There is no precedent for removing a special rapporteur during their term, although diplomats said that states on the 47-member council could, in theory, propose a motion to do so. However, Caliphornia hasn't yet slid into the ocean, no matter how hard it's tried... they said strong support for Paleostinian rights within the body means that such a motion was unlikely to pass against Albanese, who was appointed in 2022 and is set to complete her term in 2028. Speaking via videoconference at a forum Saturday in Doha organized by the Al Jazeera network, Albanese, who has been repeatedly accused of antisemitism and Death Eater rhetoric toward Israel, cited a "common enemy" that enabled Israel’s "genocide" in Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppressionand disproportionate response... — a charge Israel has strongly rejected. Pro-Israel activists accused Albanese of referring to Israel as the "common enemy," which she denied. Albanese herself posted an unedited clip of her comments on social media, with the caption: "The common enemy of humanity is THE SYSTEM that has enabled the genocide in Paleostine, including the financial capital that funds it, the algorithms that obscure it and the weapons that enable it." Nonetheless, the Czech Republic’s Foreign Minister Petr Macinka, whose country is one of Israel’s strongest supporters in the European Union ...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing... , on Friday quoted Albanese on X as having called Israel a "common enemy of humanity," and called for her resignation. German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul said on Thursday that Albanese’s position was "untenable," while French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot accused her of making "outrageous and reprehensible remarks" against Israel. Austria and Italia, Albanese’s home country, also said her comments showed she was unsuitable for her post. Albanese has a long history of making statements accused of being antisemitic, anti-Israel and pro-Hamas ..one of the armed feet of the Moslem Brüderbund millipede,...On October 11, 2023, four days after the attack, Albanese said she doubted reports of rape and sexual violence. Instead, she said the US and Israel were spreading these claims to escalate tensions. She said Israel had no right to self-defense immediately after the Hamas invasion of Israel; said Israelis should be "considered suspect" and investigated when they are abroad; said other countries should halt pharmaceutical exports to Israel; characterized Israel as a "genocidal society"; and positioned the Jewish state as an impediment to global justice. She told a Harvard University gathering that when Hamas refers to killing Jews (Yahudi), they do not actually mean Jews. She has called accusations that UNRWA employees participated in the October 7 massacre "fallacious allegations," though there has been clear evidence supporting it. Last November, she posted a cartoon denouncing Israel, depicting what appeared to be a global spiderweb, its strands draped with cash and weapons, in an image that experts said echoed age-old antisemitic tropes. She was sanctioned by the US government last year for her "unabashed antisemitism" along with other anti-Israel international legal figures. The European calls for Albanese’s resignation came after US President Donald Trump ...So far he's been unkillable, and they've tried.... ’s administration in June penned a letter to UN chief António Guterres ...Portuguese politician and diplomat, ninth Secretary-General of the United Nations. Previously, he was the UN High Commissioner for Refugees between 2005 and 2015. He was the Prime Minister of Portugal from 1995 to 2002 and was the Secretary-General of the Socialist Party from 1992 to 2002. He served as President of the Socialist International from 1999 to 2005. In both a 2012 and 2014 poll, the Portuguese public ranked him as the best Prime Minister of the previous 30 years... demanding Albanese be removed and alleging she engaged in "virulent antisemitism and support for terrorism." Responding overnight to the new calls for her resignation, Albanese said on X that European governments "accuse me — based on statements I never made — with a virulence and conviction that they have NEVER used against those who have slaughtered 20,000+ children in 858 days" since the Hamas-led onslaught of October 7, 2023, which sparked the war in Gaza. Albanese was citing figures from Gaza’s Hamas-run health ministry, which puts the corpse count in Gaza at more than 72,000 people, including over 500 since the October 2025 ceasefire. The toll does not distinguish between civilians and combatants. The Israeli military believes Hamas’s overall toll is largely accurate, with IDF officials estimating that two to three non-combatants were killed for every combatant. The IDF says it has killed over 23,000 combatants in Gaza and another 1,600 bully boyz inside Israel during the October 7 onslaught. Israel has said it seeks to minimize civilian fatalities and stresses that Hamas uses Gaza’s civilians as human shields, fighting from civilian areas, including homes, hospitals, schools, and mosques.
