Don. I didn't write it for you. I wrote it for the rest of the Forum. I knew you wouldn't understand it. But They did.
Mary, I realize they wanted to talk at the UN conference on Racism. They wanted to talk about the "racist apartheid state" of Israel, which state they have been trying to destroy since it was formed in 1948. That's hardly a dialogue that's going to go anywhere. The rest of the conference talked about reparations for something that ended in this country 130 years ago. I suppose the reason they didn't discuss reparations from Somalia is that slavery is still going on there. And, of course, Somalia is on the UN's Human Rights Council.
The whole thing was an opportunity to bash the US. Our Govt. knew it would be and that's why Colin Powell didn't go. To have sent him would have lent legitimacy to the whole farrago.
