"Francesca Albanese’s clear moral voice and expert analysis sheds
light on Palestine’s darkest moment in history. This book will help
to judge those who were on the right and wrong side of history." -
Ilan Pappe, bestselling author Israel’s genocide in Palestine and
the complicity of powerful Western states is undermining international
human rights and the UN system. The United States has imposed
sanctions on lawyers, UN experts, and Palestinian officials in an
attempt to bully and intimidate them into silence. One prominent
example is UN special rapporteur Francesca Albanese, who has played an
important role in documenting Israel’s atrocities and those who
profit from its oppression of Palestinians. This book compiles
Albanese’s indispensable and damning reports on Israel’s conduct
in Palestine since October 2023. First outlining the case that this
period should be understood as a genocide, Albanese goes on to explain
how the ongoing violence fits into a longer history of Israel’s
settler colonialism, and finally presents a devastating indictment
against the international corporations that treat mass killing and
destruction as a business opportunity. The volume also features a
reflection by Albanese on the current state of affairs; revelations by
her predecessors Richard Falk, John Dugard, and Michael Lynk of their
experiences as UN special rapporteurs; and a preface by Lex
Takkenberg, a 30-year veteran of UNRWA, co-authored with scholar Mandy
Turner. All royalties from sales of the book will be donated to UNRWA.
"Francesca Albanese is perhaps the one figure of our times that future
historians will recall as the one who did the most to redeem our
generation from its guilt over the genocide of the Palestinian people.
Her reflections in this book are not just timely—they are for the
ages." - Yanis Varoufakis, author, economist and former Minister of
Finance of Greece "When I came out of Gaza at the end of November
2023, I discovered that Israel was only the tip of the genocidal
iceberg. The rest of the iceberg was the enablement apparatus – a
system of states, institutions and individuals whose sole purpose was
to ensure the longevity of a genocidal project now into its third
year. This book dissects this apparatus, shedding light on its
constitutive accomplices." - Ghassan Abu-Sittah, British-Palestinian
trauma surgeon and Rector of the University of Glasgow The ebook is
free to download from www.plutobooks.com indefinitely, with a request
for a donation to the Palestinian refugee agency, UNRWA.
