UN Candidate is a rabid anti-Semite, homophobe and hater of Western nations

Hend Al-Muftah

Ambassador Hend Al-Muftah, a Qatari diplomat contending to chair the UN Human Rights Forum was recently exposed as an anti-Semite, homophobic, hater of Western nations, among other wonderful findings.

In a letter sent today to Federico Villegas, the president of the United Nations Human Rights Council, (UNHRC) UN Watch, an independent human rights monitoring group, called on the UN to reject her bid to become chair of a UN forum on human rights, democracy and the rule of law, because her ideology represents the exact opposite of those issues. The chair position will open at the end of November.

The letter addressed their ambassador's “racist tropes about Jews, bigoted attacks on gays, and disinformation and conspiracy theories about Western societies and liberalism.”

“Ambassador Hend Al-Muftah is a rabid anti-Semite who for well over a decade has been tweeting vile hate against Jews and gays, while spreading conspiracy theories and disinformation about Western countries. She is the last person in the world who should head a UN forum on human rights, democracy and the rule of law,” said Hillel Neuer, executive director of UN Watch explained. 

UN Watch, based in Geneva, released a new report on Monday that documents a sample of Al-Fatah’s many bigoted remarks.

“The Jews focused their investments in industry and the media, and that is why they dominated, tyrannized and ruled the world,” this hateful creature alleged in one tweet.

“The American zionist controls the U.S. media,” and “thus it is well-targeted for achieving their anti-Islam everywhere!” she accused in another.

“We learned from a young age that the Jews are our enemies!” she said. 

[FunFact: this time she was telling the truth--anti-Semitism is taught to the very young in Islamic nations because it's part of Islamic scripture. In fact, the Qur'an often refers to Jews and Christians as "apes" and "pigs" and forbids Muslims from making friends with them.]

“To despicable lies, dangerous anti-Semitic tropes, discrimination against gays and disinformation, the UN cannot give sanction. On the contrary, hatred must be exposed and condemned at the highest levels,” Neuer said.

“Accordingly, we urge the UNHRC president to summarily reject the nomination of Qatari Ambassador Hend Al-Muftah to become Chair of the United Nations Forum on Human Rights, Democracy and the Rule of Law, and we appeal to him and the Secretary-General — as well as to all UN member states — to denounce her bigotry,” the letter demands.

Unfortunately, Qatar’s chances of winning the post are high due to its influence at the UN in Geneva.

 Qatar sponsored a $20 million “Hall of Qatar” next to the UN Human Rights Council chamber, and its GDP dwarfs that of Bahamas and Togo, its two competitors for the post. 

Money talks.

As a result, Al-Muftah was expected to easily secure the appointment in the coming weeks by the president of the 47-nation Human Rights Council, Villegas of Argentina.

“But now that Al-Muftah’s bigotry has been exposed, we trust that her bid will be rejected,” said Neuer, but he's probably wrong and the UN will continue being filled with anti-Semites, homophobes, and basic a-holes.
