UN Anti-Semitism

Two weeks ago the UN held its first conference on anti-Semitism. The highlight of the conference seems to have been the speech given by Anne Bayefsky. Today, Joel Mowbray gives his assessment of the conference and what it could actually accomplish; according to him, not much.
The UN hosting a conference on anti-Semitism is like the Ku Klux Klan holding one on racism: It can produce some interesting discussion, but at the end of the day, a profoundly bigoted organization is not likely to change its core nature.
