A U.N. racism conference on the eve of Israel's Holocaust Remembrance Day disintegrated into chaos moments after Ahmadinejad became the first government official to take the floor. Two protesters in wigs tossed the noses at Ahmadinejad as he recited a Muslim prayer to begin his speech.
"They resorted to military aggression to make an entire nation homeless under the pretext of Jewish suffering," he said.
I respect his gangsta.

I never said he wasn't a hypocrite or using it as a staging post for his re-election campaign but all I am saying is this epitomises the feelings of a lot of the world, that the israeli government government is racist and yet gets away completely unscathed. Of course the arab countries were and have been complicit in allowing the suffering of the Palestinians to continue. As has been mentioned before they don't really like the palestinians, because they are seen as the black sheep of the arab world but will use them as a political tool whenever the need arrises. I guess this just underlines how controlled these said governments are.
the problem is shit like Amadinejad's speech hijacks and radicalises an otherwise legitimate view.

That's actually an interesting point. It should tell you something about how western doctrinal systems function. First, they marginalize certain views. Then, they wait for enemy states to start harping on the marginalized views, something they typically do. Finally, our doctrinal systems use the fact these views were voiced by official enemies in order to delegitimize them even more. This practice has also another important side benefit of exerting pressure on dissent, because dissidents can be accused of being in cahoots with the enemy, and with some credence because the views are indeed very similar.
So when I wanna hear about Israeli human rights violations I can go to B'tselem (the Israeli Information Center for Human Rights), that carefully documents Israel's violations. Or, I can listen to Ahmedinejad make generalizations about Israel's practices. Later, apologists will equate B'tselem-an Israeli organization-to Ahmedinijad and other official enemies.
