Well now – an apology.
I sincerely apologize.
— Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt (@FranceskAlbs) September 28, 2026
I misread the term "Muselmann" (Muslim) used in Nazi camps for prisoners at the brink of death, wrongly inferring that the term antisemitism originally meant hatred of all Semitic peoples. In fact it was coined specifically to denote hatred of Jews.
Added:
The UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories, who has been in position for more than 4 years, today openly apologised that she did not even know the meaning of the word antisemitism before yesterday.

No that is not an exaggeration.
