NEW YORK, Feb. 27 -- The Obama administration has said it will boycott a major U.N. conference on racism scheduled for April...
A State Department official said that the current text is "unsalvageable" and that the United States would reconsider its position only if the negotiators stripped out provisions criticizing Israel's occupation of Palestinian lands and recommendations for restrictions on the defamation of religions, an initiative by Islamic states that Washington fears could undercut free speech. The United States also opposes any language requiring reparations for slavery.

Behold YOUR Nation.

You guys should see the discussion I had on this same topic on the NVS forum, and how they censored it after so many pages. Anyway I rescued it and posted it here: http://proudnigerian.com/index.php/topic,86.new.html#new

It's unfortunate that even things we call our own(Nigerian) are wrought with as much or more vile, sentiment, bias and manipulative extremism as neo-colonialists don't even portray.
