Obama: Racism Conference Attacks Israel
Obama: Racism Conference Attacks Israel


The Obama administration quietly announced this weekend that it would boycott United Nations international conference about racism and discrimination because of concerns that the conference unfairly singles out Israel for criticism...

not so quiet

they weren't really quiet about it. australia, germany, netherlands, italy etc also boycott the conference. the uk will send some diplomats despite concerns. Some countries led by Iran (whose president has hosted a holocaust denial conference and who will be a key speaker on the first day) are pushing for an agenda were criticism of Islam, Sharia law and Mohammed are classified as racism. this should prevent such cartoons as printed in danish newspapers in 2005.

Hating Jews, like Latuff does, is still RACISM.

latuff doesn't hate jews, he hates the military/industrial/legal apparatus of the state of israel and he hates zionists,the last time i looked you didn't have to be either or involved in either to be a jew. zionists need to get their story straight, everytime we talk about the region, they declare themselves to be supportive or part of the only secular democracy in the middle east, and then in the next breath declare israel to be a "jewish state", not particularly secular or democratic. latuff hates hypocrisy, murderous intent, racism, violence, the internalised facist etc, qualities that most of the common or garden zionist's i've met have in droves. carry on mr latuff your "uncle tom" obama always serves to make me smile in the morning!

Zionists are RACISTS!

The former and current colonial powers boycotted the speech by the Iranian Prime Minister. Why?
Tell me what was exactly said that was offensive or not true? Israel is a racist state. Israel is an Apartheid state. Don't believe me then let us examine the laws and their discriminatory treatment of NON JEWS!
From Immigration, Land, Housing, Jobs, Votes etc. etc.
The stunt pulled by the 23 european countries does not change the facts! These 23 countries don't represent the voice of millions who oppose Israel's treatment of non Jews!
The zionists don't want peace. They don't want dialogue. They don't want debate. They fear the truth because it shows their ugly policies and behaviour.
I don't think crying "anti semite, holocaust, 6 million dead, we the jews are persecuted ones" will help them any more. The world is sick of their excuses for their violent and vicious actions!
The zionist scums come out in force to defend their sickening behaviour!
