The U.S. announced Saturday it will not attend a UN conference on racism set to start Monday in Geneva. State Department Spokesman Robert Wood says the U.S. will boycott the conference “with regret” because of objectionable language in the meeting’s draft declaration.
The useless President Barack Hussein Obama said Sunday:
“I would love to be involved in a useful conference that addressed continuing issues of racism and discrimination around the globe,” but the inclusion of anti-Israel language in the draft final communique was “completely hypocritical and counterproductive.” “We expressed in the run-up to this conference our concerns that if you incorporated, if you adopted, all the language from 2001, that’s just not something we can sign up for,” he said.
