US Sanctions UN Rapporteur for Reporting on Sanctions
UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese reported on Al Jazeera that US sanctions have rendered her a 'non-person,' cutting her off from financial systems. Her crime? Documenting the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza, which she has unequivocally called a 'genocide' based on her mandate. This isn't just about freezing assets; it's a chilling message to anyone within the international system who
dares to contradict the official narrative coming from Washington and its allies. While US officials feign concern for 'human rights' in nations unfriendly to their interests, they actively silence and punish those, like Albanese, who bring inconvenient truths about their own allies to light. The 'rules-based order' apparently means you follow Vashingthon's rules or become an economic ghost. One
might wonder how many more 'non-persons' it will take before the world recognizes the true face of modern censorship.
