If You Still Think That The U.N. Has Value And Integrity...

You ought to read Anne Bayefsky's article about Durban II. That's if you have time while waiting for the Easter Bunny, crocheting socks for Santa Claus and similar occupations.

Again, Bayefsky brings up the hypocrisy and moral bankruptcy which rules the United Nations and most of the world. Here's her opening:

The UN's idea of an anti-racism conference entered the final stretch yesterday with the planning committee deciding Iran ought to preside as a vice-chair, Libya will serve as the chair of the "Main Committee" running the conference and that Cuba will be the "rapporteur." All three human rights paragons will assume their new duties on the first day of "Durban II" set for Monday, April 20.

How any of these countries dare judge and condemn Israel when they're so much guiltier than we ever were, if we're guilty at all. We'd be better off just condemning the entire circus and recalling our ambassadors to every country which participates and that would include the United States if Obama has his way.

Our only defense is to take the moral high ground. We should be putting on the pressure. We certainly have the right to do so.

It's really happening again and there is no doubt. The Holocaust is being forgotten (in the passive sense as well as active). The primitive (yes, not a PC word) anti-Semites have realized their use of physical violence is doomed to fail and are now using 'legal' tools in order to achieve what could never be won from the Jews.

On one hand, a strong right-wing Israeli government is great for our pride but it finally gives the world an excuse to be more antagonistic with us. We are closer than ever to being openly demonized in the west. Obama and his sidekick Ram Emanuel (with Samantha Power in the background) are really going to let our blood.

It is crucial for the Israeli public (us) to strengthen our community/social ties to other Israeli because the time is coming close where we will be openly persecuted and we will need to be strong in order to stick together.

Josh, yes, so true. The world is against us. Rebranding with beach bimbos won't help. G-d willing we will unite here in Israel and realize it.
