UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese says US sanctions have made her “almost like Osama bin Laden.” Albanese — whose UN report on Gaza formed part of the evidence used in South Africa’s genocide case against Israel at the ICJ — says she now cannot even open a bank account or a credit card because Washington blacklisted her after she concluded Israel is committing genocide. Meanwhile, sanctioned Israeli officials still have full access to Western banking — while the woman who helped bring genocide charges to The Hague is being financially erased. The US isn’t punishing the genocide. It’s punishing the investigators.

History will not forget who stood on the right side. The side of justices, against genocide.

Sucks to be a terrorist.

She is much worse than Bin Laden. She does all to support Hamas and her terror regime. This causes more deaths than Osama ever reached. The right answer is: IDF, FINISH THE JOB!

Then why have the Americans not killed her?
Replying to @MintPressNews
So a UN expert gets Bin Laden treatment for calling out Israel, but actual sanctioned officials still bank freely?

Whilst Europe is fully tied into the US Banking and IT it can't be truly independent on anything.

fun facts: Francesca Albanese, like all other UN Special Rapporteurs, does not receive a salary or any financial compensation from the United Nations or Palestinian Authority for her work as an independent expert. her position is completely voluntary and unpaid.

Great montage, enlightening. It'd see a considerable improvement having the pesky, non-diegetic score stripped off it.

It's too late Israel has been exposed, and its crimes will keep being exposed as the world stands together to end its reign of terror.

Many do not realise extent or implications of US sanctions. Vital journalism.

2 points Point 1. It's scary that Israel wields so much influence in Italy that it can get a journalist fired for asking a legitimate question in the EU. Point 2. It's scary that Israel wields so much power over the executive branch of the European Union.

The IDF are completely broken now! Hamas is so sophisticated, in their high rises, massive computer systems, building rockets, killing every living soul! Oh wait, that is Israel.

The woman is a terrorist funded propaganda machine, and she's appointed by the UN! The UN needs to be defunded.

States like the US currently behave as if their own legitimacy is not a thing worth bothering about. I'm fairly sure they're wrong about that, at least in the long term.
