Some people are trying to put words in a good woman’s mouth again. So here are her real words:

“Women in the Occupied Palestinian Territory face multiple layers of violence and discrimination. The analysis made by the Special Rapporteur on violence against women in 2005 remains valid. She found that the combination of decades of Israeli occupation, the use of force against Palestinians by Israel, the different forms of resistance used by Palestinians against such use of force and the patriarchy prevailing in Palestinian society expose women to a continuum of violence in all spheres of life.”

Navi Pillay is a South African jurist. She won the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize. She was the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights from 2008 to 2014. She chaired the UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory from 2021 to 2025. The commission found that Israel committed genocide in Gaza.
