| Anti-Racism Conference Boycotted by World's Most Racist Nations |

Naturally, Israel will not be there. Nor will the US be there. Nor Canada. And now it looks like Australia may not be there either. As one Ha’aretz reader points out; “What do the U.S., Canada, Australia and Israel all have in common? All were created through ethnic cleansing and apartheid. No wonder they all stick together.” It will come as no surprise to learn that other countries that have threatened to also boycott the conference include the UK, Denmark, the Netherlands, France and, with the irony noted, Germany; all nations that over the past few centuries have demonstrated their own propensity to establish racially orientated empires. And, of course, all of them are now supporters of the racist apartheid state of Israel. Source: Damian Lataan Readers have left 32 comments.

Yes, the civilised nations of the world will not be attending this racist conference.
Anti-Zionism = Anti-Semitism, in the mouths of those who scream about it the loudest.

Well then none of the Arab countries will be represented there I suppose nor Pakistan. They're just as racist. Why single out by religious belief ?

"Founding a modern state on a single ethnic or religious identity in a territory that is ethnically and religiously diverse leads inexorably either to politics of exclusion (think of the 139-square-mile prison camp that Gaza has become) or to wholesale ethnic cleansing. Put simply, the problem is Zionism."

The reality is that israelis are the biggest anti-semites as hidden and covered up by the so called civilised world, america home of genocidal maniacs who have exterminated and oppressed hundreds of millions.
Israel a state built upon theft-murder-torture-rape and daily oppression, if this is what is meant by civilisation then i sure would not like to know what uncivilised means.

Dave the Skeptik:
You are joking yeah? Racist? Rubbish, objections to this have nothing to do with racism. As Christopher Hitchens has pointed out in SLATE magazine this UN forum has a rather unpleasant clause about not giving offence to the religious.
Though it is written tongue-in-cheek in the language of human rights and of opposition to discrimination, the nonbinding U.N. Resolution 62/154, on "Combating defamation of religions," actually seeks to extend protection not to humans but to opinions and to ideas, granting only the latter immunity from being "offended." The preamble is jam-packed with hypocrisies that are hardly even laughable, as in this delicious paragraph, stating that the U.N. General Assembly: Underlining the importance of increasing contacts at all levels in order to deepen dialogue and reinforce understanding among different cultures, religions, beliefs and civilizations, and welcoming in this regard the Declaration and Programme of Action adopted by the Ministerial Meeting on Human Rights and Cultural Diversity of the Movement of Non-Aligned Countries, held in Tehran on 3 and 4 September 2007. Paragraph 5 "expresses its deep concern that Islam is frequently and wrongly associated with human rights violations and terrorism," while Paragraph 6 "[n]otes with deep concern the intensification of the campaign of defamation of religions and the ethnic and religious profiling of Muslim minorities in the aftermath of the tragic events of 11 September 2001." You see how the trick is pulled? In the same weeks that this resolution comes up for its annual renewal at the United Nations, its chief sponsor-government (Pakistan) makes an agreement with the local Taliban to close girls' schools in the Swat Valley region (a mere 100 miles or so from the capital in Islamabad) and subject the inhabitants to Sharia law. This capitulation comes in direct response to a campaign of horrific violence and intimidation, including public beheadings. Yet the religion of those who carry out this campaign is not to be mentioned, lest it "associate" the faith with human rights violations or terrorism. In Paragraph 6, an obvious attempt is being made to confuse ethnicity with confessional allegiance. Indeed this insinuation (incidentally dismissing the faith-based criminality of 9/11 as merely "tragic") is in fact essential to the entire scheme. If religion and race can be run together, then the condemnations that racism axiomatically attracts can be surreptitiously extended to religion, too. This is clumsy, but it works: The useless and meaningless term Islamophobia, now widely used as a bludgeon of moral blackmail, is testimony to its success. And see where the language of Paragraph 10 of the resolution is taking us. Having briefly offered lip service to the rights of free expression, it goes on to say that "the exercise of these rights carries with it special duties and responsibilities and may therefore be subject to limitations as are provided for by law and are necessary for respect of the rights or reputations of others, protection of national security or of public order, public health or morals and respect for religions and beliefs." The thought buried in this awful, wooden prose is as ugly as the language in which it is expressed: Watch what you say, because our declared intention is to criminalize opinions that differ with the one true faith!! Pah, this is nothing to do with racism. I shall be writing to my MP and anyone else who will listen to get the UK to vote against this.

Abu Haadiya:
Calling countries like the UK, USA, Australia etc to a conference against racism, is a bit like calling Pol Pot, Hitler and Stalin to a conference on Human Rights. What can they teach the rest of the world??? The racist colonialist mindset held by the majority of it's citizens, especially thier ruling classes has led them to slaughter tens of millions of innocents in the last few hundred years. Even today the slaugter continues as they pursue their plans for dominance and power. The RACIST, APARTHEID state of Israel is the natural 'bastard' child of these imperialists.

Mpac are you realy this stupid or just angry that level headed head of states are seeing through this charade for what it is, a hate fest against Jews isnt that why only Arab nations and jew bashers support it?
If you want to equate the correct idea of non muslims being weary of Islams mandate for them ref koran 9.29 as racist against muslims, then you must by the same token admit that muslims are racists and have ethinicly clensed 98% of the middle east e.g what happened to all the copts in Eygpt, Asirians in Siria, Chritians in Lebanon, Hindus in India, and expelled 900,000 jews from arab lands as collective punishment so dont moan when no one falls for muslim propaganda

Q:
So once again we are to be treated to this unseemly circus staged by the assembled dictorships and oppressive regimes of the world. Of course it will provide us with the opportunity to rant and rave without challenge in every ascending cycles of hysteria. Of course there will be the usual cast of characters who will appear to voice their support of this international performance of the theatre of the tragi-comic. Within each act they will perceive progress that the regimes that fund them neither aspire to in fact or have ever attained.
Yet we should be grateful for the catharsis this provides our troubled souls. We shall feel refreshed. And we shall return like dogs to our vomit, to wallow in self-righteousness and self-pity. Not once we will question why the nations who have opened their doors to us to provide succour and opportunity, to whose laws we appeal for protection, voice objection to the tenor of this event. We are blind and deaf to the abomination that we have created from the purity of Islam. It is we who have formed from the love of Islam the endless cycle of murder-rape-sodomy-theft to be visited upon the weak and defenceless. Whatever the crimes of the Zionists and their allies, Durban is an exercise in dishonesty and as such fundamentally opposed to the central tenets of Islam.

I don't know whether you've realised, but they're still all there. Lebanon is 40% Christian, Copts make up 10% of the Egyptian population, Hindus were always the majority in India.

I suggest you go an look athttp://www.thereligionofpeace.com/ to see how much hate can be found in Islam. Just this week alone 183 people have been murdered in Jihad attacks.
One should take note of typical Muslim ignorance and paranoia and recall what al Arit al Akhdar said: The idea of taking responsibility for the ills of one's own society (meaning Islamic ones) lost out to the ease of blaming everything on evil foreigners.

That website? I've never seen so much hate packed into one page. As for ills in the Muslim world, both people in the Muslim World and foreigners are to blame. To completely blame one side over the other is stupid.

President “barack hussein obama” can limit Americas billions of tax dollars, we tried zionisiom for 90years and it brought noting but death and distraction to humanity. Now Change, go to plan B, just deal direct with the oil dealers, Israel will loose its importance.

Commando:
The context of Silvers questioning is so wrong, I dont know where to being to tell you the flaws. 'JIhad' means struggle, but obviously to the Western world, you have many meanings to this word. Whereas you are quite quick to jump on the 'Jihadi bastards' bandwagon' you are equally vociferous in defending what is 'democracy' and your inability to answer my question shows that.
To me murder is murder, whether that be in the name of democracy, or brutal terrorism, however please refrain from using the word 'jihad' as you havent acquired the necessary meaning and the in depth analysis and study of this subkect. And to provide you with more information about conquest, do youn ot remember the Spanish Inquisition, and the Middle Ages (Crusades). How quick are you to forget such demonic actions but you criticise others on that you dont know much about..

Q:
On what basis do we determine what is or what is not "true jewish ideology (TORA)" (Deen). Even if a handful of Jews who hold views at odds with the vast majority.It is a strange situation where we as Muslims assert that we have insight into what is or is not Judaism.
What credibility would we give if Jews arrogated themselves the position of defining Islam on the basis of what some minority sect claimed as being "true" Islam? I suspect that we would be incandescent with rage at their presumption. Let us not tarry reminding the Jews of their errors while we err ourselves.

2009-03-24 10:19:20
Q:
Commando, the term Jihad encompasses many things and is an amorphous term ranging from the inner struggle for perfection to the external struggle against those that would subordinate Islam. However you should recognise that as an outsider Silver uses the term in association with those that have hijacked it to legitimise their murderous actions. He should not be the object of criticism or censure, for he is neither educated nor informed enough to be aware of the distinctions. Those that misuse "Jihad" to provide cover for their infamies should be objects of blame and condemnation. We equally should learn to be less sensitive about this until such times as we lead the way condemning those who misuse the teachings of the Prophet (PBUH) to further their criminal actions.
