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.
