Genocide-enabling France uses fake video to demand Albanese resignation

Albanese has become a towering – and targeted – symbol of the dignity of the Palestinian struggle for freedom and of opposition to Israel’s crimes against them. So fearless and effective has Albanese been that the Israeli regime and its western collaborator governments have tried desperately to silence her – and failed.

So now the Israel lobby has gone to the bottom drawer of its dirty tricks chest. And to their shame, several Western governments are aiding and abetting the genocidal occupier.

An edited version of an Albanese speech has been circulated in which she appears to say that Israel is the “common enemy of the world”. Not that she’d be wrong if she did say it – but she didn’t. More to the point, she provably didn’t say it.

But shamefully, the French government – knowing that she didn’t say it – is demanding her resignation for the comment. Even after this was shown beyond doubt, the French still won’t apologise – and other governments continue to amplify the lie and the demand.
