Are these countries right in boycotting the UN conference on racism to support Israel?
-
Canada, the United States, Italy, Germany, the Netherlands, Australia and New Zealand have all announced they're boycotting the UN conference to show their support for Israel - because of the likelihood it will be used to criticize Israel by Muslim countries. So I guess Israel has a few friends in the world after all? http://www.google.com/hostednews/canadianpress/article/ALeqM5hbGUeds_7Z1M8nGEhsHjFHbHrx7Q http://www.nzherald.co.nz/world/news/article.cfm?c_id=2&objectid=10567533

Answer:
Absolutely, this is outrageous that the UN is singling out israel for racism, while there are many more muslim and third world countries as well as major european countries who claim to be so moral, these countries that are supporting this conference are very hypocritical!

They're right, it probably will. After all, if anybody cared about my suffering black brothers down in the sudan and darfur, they might actually stop p*ssyfooting around and STOP the slaughterings that are occurring there! So if they dont care to stop racism in africa, and they SURE AS HELL aint botherin to stop racism here in america... then where else would they be worried about except the Jews? Clearly they arent gonna diss muslims, cuz then theyd get blown up!

They are right to protest any conference that defies it's title. Call it a conference against racism and hatred and spend 2 days spreading hatred? Huh? As for Israel having friends, I do not doubt that Israel has friends but this is not a good proof of that. These countries are standing up for morals and equality and openhandedness, I would hope they would do the same for any People that was the victim of racism.

Everyone can be criticized. Israel isn't any more special than anyone else. People criticize me, my religion and my country. What can I do about it? People are entitled to their opinions. If someone criticizes you, take it in to be a better person if it's true. And if it's false, then you may argue with it. Making someone not speak their opinions wont make any situation better.

So whats new. America either applies the veto, walks out or boycotts any criticism of its buddy Israel. Its surprising how much control the Zionists have in American decision making or is it ? Just take a look at this lot EDIT At least Britain are beginning to see Israel in its true light. EDIT I take back what I said about Britain as they were one of the countries in a mass walk out at the conference. I am ashamed of my own country.

They aren't doing it to support Israel. They're doing it because the conference is that gross.

The list of boycotting countries is impressive, but short. It includes mostly developed countries that resist Muslim invasion to the West. Muslim Overpopulation is #1 problem of The Planet Earth.

I would stand for israel any day. they've put up with enough crap. And then not long ago the rocket fire coming from Gaza. Sure it was Hamas, but Gaza allowed and supported it, so israel should have wiped them off of the map.

Yeah but they are going to criticize Israel while they sit home with their alcohol and BMW's...............that is the main point.
