From news article:
Will this September's UN anti-racism conference in New York be yet another anti-Semitic, anti-Israel hatefest -- or will it actually work to forward human rights? Known as Durban III, the confab comes 10 years after the World Conference Against Racism in Durban, South Africa.

At Durban I, nearly 1,500 "nongovernmental organizations" -- NGOs, the term in UN-speak for activist groups of all kinds -- hijacked the language and values of human rights to turn the conference's NGO Forum into a prolonged Israel-bash, with huge dollops of anti-Semitism. The forum "declare[d] Israel as a racist, apartheid state," and "Israel's brand of apartheid" to be "a crime against humanity" and "call[ed] upon the international community to impose a policy of complete and total isolation of Israel as an apartheid state."
