The UN (Useless Nincompoops) is run by anti-Semitic/anti-Israel- Arab-loving countries... why would they care if the US and Israel show up or don't show up for this supposed "anti-racism" (natch) conference. Israel should withdraw from the UN anyway since the UN never cares if Israelis are being bombed, just if they retaliate.

to show those anti-Semitic asshats some fine, bare butts.

Because they are the most hypocritical nation when it comes to human rights anyway! SO it's a good thing for the world, IMO.

A meeting designed at propagating anti-Semitism cannot be regarded as anti-Racist. Ynet editors must be more accurate.

if they bit you in the ass.

If it weren't so sad it would be very funny describing this conference, and the one before, as Anti-Racism. It's more like a conference on how to PRACTICE racism, prejudice & bigotry against Jews & Israel. I'm glad the US & Canada will boycott. I'd like to hope most other nations do the same. Let the racists talk to each other, everyone else stay home.

Let's fund Hamas/Hizbullah while we're at it.

What a dumb article! It contradicting in and of itself!!! If you READ the two paragraphs below you'll see it just propaganda!!!! How can one administration state what an unknown administration will do? Oh that's right they can't unless it's a law... :D and this would NOT be a law... it would be a (anonymous) "Senator" decision!!! WHO CARES WHAT THIS "Senator" THINKS AND WHO IS THIS "Senator" TO DECIDE WHAT THE US GOVERNMENT WILL DO AND NOT DO????!!!!!!!! A US senator says the United States has decided not to attend next year's follow-up to the 2001 UN World Conference on Racism because the panel seems certain to repeat anti-Semitic and anti-Israel positions of the original gathering State Department spokesman Tom Casey told reporters Thursday that the United States had not yet determined whether to participate. He said the decision would be up to the next US administration because the conference is to take place after President George W. Bush leaves office in January 2009. Thank you!!!

The "anti-Israel" picture you selected is excellent. I am certain that nowadays most Israelis would agree with what is written on that sign.
