UN official: Oct. 7 victims were killed because of Israeli oppression, not antisemitism

United Nations Special Rapporteur on Palestinian Territories Francesca Albanese denied that the Hamas massacre of over 1,200 people in southern Israel on October 7 was antisemitic yesterday (Saturday) and blamed the State of Israel for the massacre of its citizens.

Albanese made the shocking statement in response to French President Emmanuel Macron, who called the October 7 attacks "the largest antisemitic massacre of our century."

Macron's statement is accurate, as the atrocities of October 7 were the worst massacre committed against the Jewish people since the Nazi Holocaust.

In response to Marcon, Albanese wrote on X (formerly Twitter): "The 'greatest antisemitic massacre of our century'? No, Mr. @EmmanuelMacron. The victims of 7/10 were not killed because of their Judaism, but in response to Israel's oppression. France & the international community did nothing to prevent it. My respects to the victims."
