SDNY COURTHOUSE,
May 30 – The United Nations
has hit a new low, with its
supposed human rights
commissioner Michelle Bachelet
whitewashing China's genocide
against the Uighurs during a
stage-managed trip to the
country.
At the end, in a
press conference dominated by
scripted questions from
Chinese state media in
response to which she read
from prepared notes, she said
she was unable to access what
is happening in Xinjiang.
Defund the UN.
And call out the
cowards. There are dozens of
human rights experts paid
through the UN and counties
like China who will say
nothing about Bachelet's sell
out. Some, like Adama Dieng,
owe their current sinecure to
her (and are afraid of China
knocked them off the gravy
train). Consider: "The UN
Expert on human rights in the
Sudan, Adama Dieng, will begin
an official visit to the
country on 1 June
2022.
During his visit, which will
end on 4 June, Dieng will meet
with senior government
officials, representatives of
civil society organizations,
human rights defenders, heads
of UN entities, and
diplomats.
This is the second visit to
the country by Dieng since he
was designated by the UN High
Commissioner for Human Rights
in November 2021 as the UN
Expert on the situation of the
human rights in the Sudan."
Note:
while pleasant in his way, here
was the time Dieng when asked
about Paul Biya's slaughter of
Anglophones referred to them
as separatists, here.
And Dieng was palling around
with Guterres when the latter
had Inner City Pres roughed up
and banned since. Dieng never
said or did anything. Some
human rights advocate. But
now, for him and others, the
Bachelet sell out litmus test.
Watch this site.
A fish rots
from the head. The head of the
UN system is Antonio Guterres,
and the reasons for his
silence on China's abuses is
more
sinister.
Before being
selected - by China, which
like Russia could have vetoed
him - Guterres took money from
the Gulbenkian Foundation in
Lisbon. The China Energy Fund
Committee, whose Patrick Ho
was convicted of UN bribery
involving UN President of the
General Assembly, offered top
dollar for Gulbenkian's oil
company.
Guterres omitted the money he
took from Gulbenkian from his
financial disclosure form.
And after Inner
City Press, which had
aggressively reported on
Guterres' predecessor Ban
Ki-moon from inside the UN,
asked about it, Guterres had
Inner City Press roughed up
and banned from the UN ever
since. Very Xi.
In
the run up to Bachelet's trip,
Inner City Press put written
questions repeatedly to
Guterres' spokesman Stephane
Dujarric, who daily takes
three of more questions in his
noon briefing from Chinese
state media. But to Inner City
Press, no answer.
Likewise, when
pro bono law firm Quinn
Emanuel wrote to Guterres'
head of media accreditation
Melissa Fleming asking for
Inner City Press to be allowed
to re-enter the UN and ask its
questions, she refused to
response, as did the supposed
UN Correspondents Association,
on whose Executive Committee
China has a permanent seat.
So how is
it surprising the the UN
covers up for China?
But where
if the US Administration and
US Mission to the UN under
Linda Thomas-Greenfield on
this? They praise the UN and
their work there, amid all the
failures and censorship.
There is no
accountability mechanism for
today's UN. Defund and decamp.

book by Inner City
Press, "Belt
and Roadkill." (Also, Genocide Games of Guterres)
