A new UN Watch video showing “human rights expert” Francesca Albanese openly defending the Hamas terrorist organization has gone viral with over 4 million views on X, formerly known as Twitter.
In the shocking footage exposed by UN Watch, from an event in Sicily on August 8, 2025 Albanese said: “People continue to say, ‘But Hamas, Hamas, Hamas…’ I don’t think people have any idea what Hamas is.”
“Hamas is a political force that won the 2005 elections-whether we like it or not. Hamas built schools, public facilities, hospitals. It was simply the authority, the de facto authority.”
Albanese continued her defense of the Palestinian terror group: “It is critical that you understand, that when you think of Hamas, you should not necessarily think of cut-throats, people armed to the teeth, or fighters. It’s not like that.”
