UN: Germany joins boycotters of UN racism meeting

A U.N. official says Germany has decided to boycott this week's U.N. racism conference, joining the United States and five other countries who will not attend it.

The U.S., Netherlands, Australia, Canada, Israel and Italy are boycotting the conference out of concern that it could be used by Muslim countries to criticize Israel and limit free speech when it comes to criticizing their religion.[Comment: OK The US , Canada and Australia have a long history of racism and genocidal practices against their indigenous populations, Germany invented Nazism the worst form of modern racism , Italy invented Fascism and has a long history of colonial racist practices in Libya and Ethiopia, it makes total sense why they would boycott a conference on racism, I mean they know exactly what poor Israel is going through !!]
