Obama to boycott World Conference Against Racism: I think he should attend

The Washington Post is reporting that the Obama Administration will boycott "the World Conference Against Racism next week in Geneva." The Post:

White House spokesman Tommy Vietor said that although progress has been made in revising the draft text, concerns remain. "We hope that these remaining concerns will be addressed, so that the United States can reengage the conference negotiations in the hopes of arriving at a conference document that we can support," he said.

The main reason the U.S. has objected to this conference is that it is, like so much U.N. business, a veil for Islamic anti-Semites to bash Israel done in the name of ending racism. In 2001, the U.N. held a similar conference in South Africa, and all of the Israel-haters used the conference as a guise to vent their bile on the Jewish state. The U.S. ended up walking out. A large percentage of the U.S. Congress does not want to see a replay of 2001:

Last week a bipartisan group of House members sent a letter to Obama congratulating him for deciding to boycott the meeting, which is scheduled to begin Monday.

"We applaud you for making it clear that the United States will not participate in a conference that undermines freedom of expression and is tainted by an anti-Zionist and anti-Semitic agenda," said the letter signed by seven members of Congress.

Israel and several Jewish advocacy groups have urged the United States and other nations not to take part in the conference. Canada and Italy have said they will not attend, and several other U.S. allies, including Australia, are considering not participating, according to representatives of several advocacy groups.

While I appreciate the principled stance of not supporting the idiocy of the Islamic countries -- everyone of which is far more racist and authoritarian than Israel or the United States -- I think President Obama should go to the conference himself.

He should stand up in front of the sheiks and Marxists and bigamists and cannibals and tell them what jackasses they are. Tell them, the 70 percent white United States just elected a black man president. Who the eff are you to lecture us on racism you two-bit morons? Who are you to lecture us on religious liberty, when a person will be killed in your country if he was born a Muslim and converts to a different faith? Who are you, the people who kicked all of the Jews out of your countries and forced them to move to Israel to lecture Israel about modernity, liberty, human rights, democracy, free speech, civil rights, religious freedom, women's rights, racism or any other value of the modern world? Go back to your effing caves where your four wives live and you beat your daughters for not wearing a burqa.

Boycotting may feel productive. But shoving the feces that the Third World morons are digging up back in their faces would do a lot more good. I say, Obama, go to that conference and tell those yutzes what's what.
