Jeremy Paxman NAILS the British Ambassador Peter Gooderham on his churlish walkout of the speech by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad by asking him the question,"What is the difference between Zionism and racism?"

I'd like to see the speach Ahmadinejad gave before I judge this.

The United States didn't attend the UN Conference on Racism to begin with.
(Following isn't interesting, really, just a link to a press release at the conference site with the notice that said the USA decided not to go. Just compulsive about backing up where I find my shit online.)

I've been watching this closely. Countries that did not attend including the U.S. and Australia really dropped the ball on this one.
By not attending, they allow these events to devolve into a slanging match between the most extreme attendees. They should attend, debate, and rebutt - see it as an opportunity to confront racism rather than an excuse to run away.

America is to busy side stepping from things the US helps to put together, then walking away to let the sparks fly.
the united states government is passive aggressive (and bipolar, with fits of rage)
