| Durban II Drafts Getting Worse |
| 2009-02-23 |
| The initial draft of the Durban II text, posted on the United Nations Web site, spoke of the suffering of the Palestinians under occupation. Obama Admin's first UN test of 'smart diplomacy' "A foreign occupation founded on settlements, laws based on racial discrimination with the aim of continuing domination of the occupied territories," it adds, is a "contemporary form of apartheid and a serious threat to international peace and security." An alternative paragraph calls for the right of return for Palestinian refugees and refers to the "racial policies of the occupying power." Israel itself is not named in the document, although the reader can clearly understand where it is being referenced. "As far as we believe, Durban II is going to be the anti-Semitic event of 2009," said Amos Hermon, the head of the [ Jewish Agency] task force [on anti-semitism]. "It looks worse than we expected, even though it's not yet clear what the end result will be." |

| #6 The US has, in the past, refused to attend, or even acknowledge this Arab spittle session. So what is Obamalamadingdong gonna do? He's sending one of his persona; friends/advisors to attend. This SOB is going to cause real trouble with his Muzz ass kissin'. |

| #5 Then there is the 2,000,000 Arab Christians who have been coerced out of the Judaeo-Christian Holy Lands since 1948. They don't count to the Durbanazis. |

| #3 I'm not so sure Bambi will veto it. After all his very first call after becoming president was to the Palieos.... |
