Topic: Ahmadinejad uses anti-racism conference for racism
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has used the UN anti-racism conference to once again blast the Jews and blame the West for everything wrong in the world in a hypocritical rant which saw the few Western delegates who were there walk out in disgust. The U.S., Israel and other Western nations like Germany boycotted the conference as they feared something like this might happen while France and Britain sent delegates. Just goes to show they hit the nail on the head, doesn't it? Ahmadinejad goes on to say the only way to end racism is to accept Islam.
I think it simply highlights the question of the role of religion in the promulgation of racism.
