Chris Hedges Report: What Happens ‘When the World Sleeps’?
Francesca Albanese, the special rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories comprising the West Bank, Gaza, and East Jerusalem, is one of the singular most courageous voices against the ongoing genocide in Gaza and the savage repression meted out to Palestinians in the West Bank. Her detailed UN reports have been fearless examinations of the machinery of apartheid and genocide and Israel’s disregard for international humanitarian law. She has been viciously attacked. The Trump administration ordered the U.S. Department of Treasury to classify her as a “specially designated national”, cutting her off from the global financial system and blocking any U.S. citizen and corporation from engaging with her.
