Did you know? China is one of the top donors to so-called UN human rights experts, providing over $2 million — including to mandates on minority rights and counterterrorism. No credible human rights expert would accept a dime from a regime that oppresses 1.5 billion people.

BREAKING: UN torture expert denounces colleagues Francesca Albanese and Reem Alsalem for denying October 7 atrocities and ignoring Hamas torture of Israeli hostages: “My colleagues said nothing. I felt ashamed. Their one-sided, vitriolic reports added to families’ anguish.”
Dr. Alice Jill Edwards: “The UN had done so little to help them... I felt ashamed. I am still outraged that UN special rapporteurs Francesca Albanese and Reem Alsalem never formally documented these horrors. Instead, both have continued to issue a stream of what I regard as one-sided and vitriolic reports, and hard-to-justify excuses for their lack of attention. That, families and returned hostages have told me, only added to their anguish.”

BREAKING: Today I can exclusively reveal that Professor Ben Saul - an Australian UN human rights official who previously called for the arrest of President Trump - has been caught conducting an email pen-pal relationship with serving Chinese Communist Party officials.
Replying to @UNWatch
Ben Saul, the UN expert counterterrorism, received $150,000 from China then refused to issue any statements on China’s persecution of the Uyghurs, which Beijing justifies as “counterterrorism.” In March, Saul condemned the U.S. while praising Somalia as a “responsible state.”

.@mehdirhasan Didn't you call notorious non-lawyer charlatan Francesca Albanese a “human rights lawyer”? Will you now acknowledge that the Hamas de facto spokesman lied about being a lawyer, and will you apologize for spreading the lie? xitter.cf/mehdirhasan/status/211…
