Recent signers:

The Issue

Francesca Albanese, an Italian lawyer who was appointed as the "UN Special Rapporteur on the Situation of Human Rights in the Palestinian Territories" has made antisemitic and strongly anti-Israel remarks in the past and is clearly not impartial. Furthermore, her husband previously worked for the Palestinian Authority.

She is appropriately referred to the NGO Monitor as the "Special Rapporteur to Demonize Israel." Francesca Albanese has demonized the Jewish people and the state of Israel by using antisemitic tropes and borderline antisemitic and certainly hateful images. Her social media feeds are full of one sided content promoting people such as Mohammed El Kurd, a well known instigator of violence. In another post, in 2014, she accuses the Jewish Lobby of controlling the US. Moreover, she has often referred to Terror Operatives as "Human Rights Defenders" on social media.

Her prejudice and prior positions create a conflict of interest, rendering her unsuitable for her United Nations position.

Sign this petition and demand that the United Nations remove Albanese from her post and replace her with an unbiased individual!
