Why Democracies Should Oppose Renewal of Volker Türk:

Analysis of his 2022-2024 record:

• UN human rights chief Volker Türk condemned the United States more than he condemned all of China, North Korea, Cuba, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, combined.

• Türk was completely silent on gross and systematic violations of human rights committed by the regimes of Cuba, North Korea, Algeria, Eritrea, Mauritania, Lebanon, and Qatar. At the same time, he had no trouble criticizing democracies such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, Italy, and France.

• Even when Türk did criticize some of the most oppressive regimes, he ignored many of their worst offenses. For example, he made only three criticisms of China, yet even in these he never mentioned Beijing’s imprisonment of more than one million Uyghurs in concentration camps.

• Türk was obsessed with condemning Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East, making 58 condemnations during the past two years, with 49 on the Hamas-Israel war. To put this in perspective, over the same two years, the Maduro regime in Venezuela was criticized only 4 times.

• Türk has made more statements on the Hamas-Israel war than on wars that directly affected millions of more people, with more statements about Gaza than all of his total combined statements on Ukraine, Sudan, and Myanmar. To put this in perspective, although the war in Sudan also began in 2023, it has already killed tens of thousands of civilians and has created over 2 million external refugees, which is nearly as many refugees as the entire population of Gaza. Another 7.7 million Sudanese have been left internally displaced.

• Despite his position as the highest independent voice in the UN human rights system, Türk was silent when the UN elected serial abusers like China, Cuba, Qatar, and Eritrea to the Human Rights Council, which now has a membership that is more than 50 percent non-democracies, and he was silent when the Islamic Republic of Iran was made Chair of the UN Human Rights Council Social Forum.

Accordingly:

• UN Watch calls on High Commissioner Volker Türk to resign. He is not fit to serve as the top authority on human rights on account of his documented record of placing political considerations over human rights, and turning a blind eye to hundreds of millions of victims of the world’s most oppressive regimes.

• In the event that Türk does not resign by January 1st, to be replaced by a genuine human rights voice with moral credibility, all democracies should pull out of the UNHRC.

• Democracies should stop lending legitimacy to a UN human rights system that has become corrupted by selectivity, politicization, and the dangerous domination of dictatorships.

BREAKING: Before his successor takes over, Guterres is trying to preempt and rush through an unprecedented, second 4-year term for his protegé Volker Türk as human rights chief. Türk has been abysmal on calling out abusers like China, Cuba & North Korea. Vote expected on Friday.

🚨 EXTREMAMENTE GRAVE!

Sabe o Thiago Ávila, apoiador do Irã, militante da Flotilha Sumud e admirador de grupos terroristas anti-Israel?

Ele vai ser candidato a deputado federal por São Paulo e instalou seu comitê de campanha em Higienópolis, simplesmente o bairro com a maior concentração de judeus no Brasil.

Uma clara e abjeta provocação política, como denunciou o Rabino Micha Gamerman.

Estamos falando de um indivíduo que foi pessoalmente prestar homenagem no funeral de Hassan Nasrallah, então líder máximo do Hezbollah.

Alguém que reiteradamente minimizou os nefastos ataques de 7 de outubro e, desde então, discursa contra o único Estado judeu do mundo.

E que agora, em um gesto de total afronta, escolhe a Rua Aureliano Coutinho, em Higienópolis, como seu QG político.

Thiago Ávila não fez do antissionismo uma mera bandeira: essa é exatamente a plataforma eleitoral dele.

Tanto que ele próprio admitiu que pediu permissão à "galera de Gaza" para se candidatar.

E não, o militante não tem qualquer ligação com o bairro de Higienópolis. Thiago não é nem sequer de São Paulo, é de Brasília.

Um aproveitador que, além de não representar o nosso estado, quer fazer do desrespeito à comunidade judaica um palanque.

Qual é a necessidade? Imagine só, por um segundo, se algo semelhante acontecesse com outras populações e grupos: um detrator radical acampado nas proximidades, fazendo campanha.

O antissemitismo não pode estar no quintal das famílias judias. Isso precisa ser barrado!

Você sabia destes factos sobre os cristãos em Israel? ✝️🇮🇱
Os cristãos estão entre os grupos com maior nível de escolaridade em Israel e desempenham um papel de destaque na economia do país!
Israel abriga comunidades cristãs vibrantes que fazem parte desta terra há séculos e continuam a prosperar até hoje.

[Israel no Brasil @IsraelinBrazil]

Samaria (Shomrón) foi fundada como a capital do Reino de Israel há cerca de 3.000 anos. Mais tarde, Herodes, Rei da Judeia, renomeou-a como Sebastia, sendo este um local de grande importância para o legado e o patrimônio cultural judaico.

A UNESCO deve estar ciente da história judaica de Sebastia. Uma designação como Patrimônio Mundial que oculte essa história compromete o próprio propósito da instituição.

Tenho a satisfação de anunciar a publicação de meu novo livro:

O DIREITO DIANTE DO ANTISSEMITISMO
A instrumentalização contemporânea do antissionismo como linguagem de discriminação

A obra parte de um problema jurídico cada vez mais presente: o antissemitismo contemporâneo nem sempre se manifesta de forma explícita.

Muitas vezes, abandona o vocabulário tradicional do preconceito e passa a circular sob categorias de aparência política, especialmente mediante a utilização da palavra “sionista” como substituto funcional de “judeu”.

Antigos tropos antissemitas — conspiração, poder oculto, culpa coletiva, desumanização, controle da imprensa e dos governos, dupla lealdade, demonização e assassinato de crianças — são reciclados sob uma nova linguagem.

O livro examina como o Direito deve reconhecer, interpretar, provar e responder a essas manifestações sem confundir crítica política legítima com discriminação e sem relativizar as garantias próprias do Direito Penal.

A análise é construída a partir da Constituição Federal, da Lei nº 7.716/1989, da jurisprudência brasileira, dos tratados internacionais e do direito comparado.

A obra aborda, entre outros temas, o antissemitismo explícito e implícito, a instrumentalização do antissionismo, a liberdade de expressão, a Lei do Racismo, a negação, trivialização e inversão do Holocausto, os tropos antissemitas, os códigos do ódio, a prova digital, a interpretação contextual e as dificuldades enfrentadas pelo julgador diante de uma linguagem deliberadamente disfarçada.

O livro é destinado especialmente a magistrados, membros do Ministério Público, advogados, defensores, professores, pesquisadores e estudantes de Direito.

Ele dialoga com O Antissionismo Impossível — História, direito e crime na negação da autodeterminação judaica, obra em que desenvolvo de forma mais extensa as bases históricas e políticas do tema.

In recent days, in cooperation and coordination with our partners from UNDP, the pest control campaign in the Gaza Strip has continued with the aim of improving sanitary conditions in the area.
Accordingly, more than 2,600 sites have been completed to date, representing over 80% of all the locations that were planned for treatment. In the coming days, the campaign will continue in cooperation with the organization in order to complete all of the planned sites.

Israel is the most hated country in the world because it’s the only country in the world that is at war with Islamism.

“According to Resolution 5.2, mandate holders are required to do no harm and act with objectivity and professionalism… This report, like others by this mandate holder, violates these obligations and brings this council into disrepute.”

@anneherzberg14 was censored, and her video submission was never shown during the @UN_HRC Item 7 Debate. “Coincidentally” the speech called for accountability for the Special Rapporteur @FranceskAlbs who published a report missing the word “Hamas” and omitting the facts.

Silencing us will not stop us. Watch the full speech ⬇️

[NGO Monitor @NGOmonitor]

Apparently, challenging the @UN_HRC for its silence on terrorism against Israelis is “incendiary infaming rhetoric.”

That’s what the VP of the Council conveyed when he silenced NGO Monitor Legal Advisor @anneherzberg14 in the middle of her speech challenging the Council’s silence on “decades of terrorism, murder, and hatred…Iran’s threats of genocide” and UNRWA’s abuse of “generations of Palestinian children”.

Sure, free speech is great and all, unless it involves defending universal human rights.

[Rawan Osman روان عثمان @RawaneOsmane]

My mother’s family is Lebanese Shiite. My father’s, Sunni, from Damascus. I grew up in Lebanon. I went to a French Catholic school. And we lived through war.

The Lebanese civil war. Then the wars with Israel.

The south was occupied by Israelis fed up with terrorists crossing the border. The rest of the country was occupied by the Syrian army, which ruled every part of our lives and terrorized the powerful just as much as the powerless.

Shelling. Checkpoints. Edgy adults. Trauma. Disrupted life. Shouting. Sonic booms. The radio. The TV. The newspapers.

Israel. The Zionists. The Jews.

It was all because of the Jews.

One day, Israel will disappear, they said. Soon, said Hassan Nasrallah. Eventually, it will be destroyed. That was the general belief, repeated so often it stopped sounding like an opinion and started sounding like a fact.

As a child, I asked: why is Israel doing this to us?

Because the Jews are the Jews.

That was the whole answer. Nobody needed a better one.

In my mid-twenties, after my divorce, I decided to raise my son in Europe. I moved to France. I ended up in Strasbourg, surrounded by Jews.

On the first day, I had a panic attack.

That stopped me. It forced a question I had never asked myself: why? Why this reaction, to nothing, to no one, to strangers on a street?

Because I was sharing space with the enemy.

Why is the Jew the enemy?

I had never met one.

So I started thinking. Reading. Zooming out.

And I realized: everything I knew about the Jew was not true.
