US’s UN Ambassador Slammed for Unfounded Attack on UN Palestine Expert | Truthout
On Tuesday, U.S. Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield said that the U.S. believes Albanese is “unfit for her role.” She baselessly accused Albanese, who has been outspoken against Israel’s genocide and occupation of Palestine, of being antisemitic — an accusation that has been leveled countless times against Albanese as Israel has carried out its slaughter in Gaza and beyond. “The United Nations should not tolerate antisemitism from a UN-affiliated official hired to promote human rights,” Thomas-Greenfield wrote on social media. Critics swiftly responded, saying that Thomas-Greenfield is complicit in attempting to paint over the U.S.’s participation in Israeli genocide. “Your attack on UN special Rapporteur Albanese is so clearly intended to hide your criminal complicity in an ongoing genocide that you truly should be embarrassed. Is there any trick from the genocidaire’s playbook that you will refuse to carry out?” said the Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention. “By attacking a person who is courageously speaking truth, you obviously hope to draw attention away from the criminal conspiracy that is the Biden White House, State Department, Department of Defense, and your office, all of which have materially aided Israel in committing genocide,” the group continued. “Apartheid shill in action yet again,” wrote Middle East expert and analyst Mouin Rabbani. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
