She seems very good.

Content Warning: there is an American asshole from I24 at one point. It gets a bit confrontational. Other than that, it’s incredible.

It’s honestly very cathartic seeing someone at the highest possible level be this honest and upfront about what is going on. Also, Abby Martin is there.

    Thanks for posting. I am watching the press conference.

    Here is the page for the report: A/79/384: Report of the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967, Francesca Albanese - Genocide as colonial erasure | OHCHR

    Summary

    In the present report, the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967, Francesca Albanese, examines the unfolding horrors in the occupied Palestinian territory. While the wholesale destruction of Gaza continues unabated, other parts of the land have not been spared. The violence that Israel has unleashed against the Palestinians post-7 October is not happening in a vacuum, but is part of a long-term intentional, systematic, State- organized forced displacement and replacement of the Palestinians. This trajectory risks causing irreparable prejudice to the very existence of the Palestinian people in Palestine. Member States must intervene now to prevent new atrocities that will further scar human history.

    If the above isn't heinous enough, there are 576 documents in UN Human Rights tagged #Palestine

      Thanks for the links! I’m glad someone found the video useful :)

      YouTube just randomly recced it to me as I was going to sleep and I had to stay up to watch it. I couldn’t believe someone as high up in a position of power as her was being so frank and honest about what was going on.

      In a way it was cathartic. But it was also depressing - even she can’t get through to the people with actual power…

        I mean there is a reason why Israel hates the UN. Because as much as it would be to their benefit to adhere to the US line, they can't help themselves but to appoint people like this. For all it'll do. One big puzzle for me is why this isn't a more concerning aspect for libs. Shouldn't this be their problem?

        I didn't actually bring myself to read the report yet. I only opened it and zoomed out. Look at the footnotes (purple) vs text ratio in the report:

        it is allllll citations. The mark of a writer who knows they will not be believed when asserting the sky is blue.

        I'm surprised at her pep. I felt tired on her behalf watching.

        I only notice at the end she is wearing a gray and black kufiyyeh.

        I think you found the only good italian.
