New York, NY – Harriet P. Schleifer, Chair, and William C. Daroff, CEO of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, released the following statement:
The United Nations system has long demonstrated ceaseless, deeply-ingrained bias against the state of Israel. Since the Hamas pogrom of October 7, 2023 and the beginning of Israel’s war to defend itself, the UN’s one-sided condemnations have reached a fever pitch.
One of the worst offenders in the entire apparatus is Francesca Albanese, the body’s Special Rapporteur for the Palestinian Territories.
Albanese’s malign fixation on the Jewish state has of late escalated to comparing it to Nazi Germany, mocking the recent tragic deaths of four IDF soldiers, and even demanding that Israel be stripped of its seat at the UN. This comes after she claimed that the Hamas pogrom was not an act of antisemitism, which drew the condemnation of several governments, including the United States.
