UK Jewish groups, peers urge government not to attend Durban IV

Jewish groups and peers in the UK are calling on the government to boycott the upcoming Durban IV conference commemorating the 2001 South African anti-racism conference that descended into an anti-Israel and anti-Semitic hatefest.

The United States and Israel walked out of the 2001 Durban conference when it became clear that the event was nothing more than a venue for labelling Zionism as racist and attacking the Jewish State’s legitimacy.
