UN experts greatly troubled over labeling antifa as domestic terrorists
Experts for the United Nations have expressed great concern over the labeling of antifa members as "domestic terrorists."
“International human rights law protects the right to freedom of expression, association and peaceful assembly,” said Fionnuala Ni Aolain, the U.N. special rapporteur on the promotion and protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms while countering terrorism said Friday. "It is regrettable that the United States has chosen to respond to the protests in a manner that undermines these fundamental rights."
The denouncement came in response to a statement made by Attorney General William Barr late last month while riots were breaking out across the country.
"It is time to stop watching the violence and to confront and stop it. The continued violence and destruction of property endangers the lives and livelihoods of others and interferes with the rights of peaceful protesters, as well as all other citizens," he stated.
Barr concluded, "The violence instigated and carried out by antifa and other similar groups in connection with the rioting is domestic terrorism and will be treated accordingly."
The same day, President Trump tweeted, "The United States of America will be designating ANTIFA as a Terrorist Organization."
This controversy comes in the wake of the death of George Floyd, an unarmed black man who died in Minneapolis late last month after a police officer knelt on his neck for several minutes. In response, protests and riots have been occurring in cities across America.
On Wednesday, Floyd's brother, Philonise Floyd, pleaded with the U.N. Human Rights Council to investigate the issue of police brutality in the U.S.
"The way you saw my brother tortured and murdered on camera is the way black people are treated by police in America. You watched my brother die. That could have been me. I am my brother's keeper. You in the United Nations are your brothers' and sisters' keepers in America, and you have the power to help us get justice for my brother, George Floyd," he said.
The U.N. has already begun debating the issue and will continue to do so.

Wow, I finally agree with failed political consultant Steve Schmidt, who called Wacko John Bolton “a despicable man who failed in his duty to protect America.” Also stated that he should never be allowed to serve in government again. So true! Plain and simple, John Bolton,….
…..who was all washed up until I brought him back and gave him a chance, broke the law by releasing Classified Information (in massive amounts). He must pay a very big price for this, as others have before him. This should never to happen again!!!
