VOICE OF EUROPE — On Friday, the United Nations, on its Geneva social media account, declared its unwavering support for members Antifascist Action, a violent Marxist-Leninist organization which US President Donald Trump said would soon be labelled as a terrorist organization.
On its official Twitter account, the United Nations Office in Geneva (UNOG) launched a defense of the anti-police extremist organization, saying that it was worried by recent statements made by senior officials within the Trump administration which described the group’s activists as domestic terrorists.
“UN #HumanRights experts express profound concern over a recent statement by the US Attorney-General describing #Antifa and other anti-fascist actrivists as domestic terrorists, saying it undermines the rights to freedom and expression and of peaceful assembly,” the tweet reads.

Below the tweet’s text, an image of the Antifascist Action banner was posted.
Shortly after going live, the tweet, which appeared to endorse the group that’s well-known for regularly carrying out violence against their political opponents, sparked widespread outrage. Among other reactions, some commenters called for the UN to be defunded. […]
Another reason to dump the UN. We pay for this organization and their despot leaders try to embarrass the US.
The U.N. has morphed entirely into a platform for Globalism and the consequent extreme left wing ideology. It needs to be defunded, dried up and blow away.
