PETITION:
"BOYCOTT DURBAN 2!" Nearly seven years
ago, the, UN World Conference against Racism
met in Durban South Africa. The official aim
of the event was the public recognition of slavery
and colonialism as crimes. However, the conference
mutated into an upright tribunal against Israel
and its right to exist as well as defense for
unfree states and dictators. Now, the United
Nations plans a Durban Review Conference to
take place in April 2009. A group of intellectuals
urges European governments to call off their
participation in this event/conference. Read
more about the press release here.
Sign the petition here

Request From McMaster Faculty To The World Academic
Community To Commend and Express Appreciation

The
Jewish Communities in Austria mourn for the reservists
Eldad Regev and Ehud Goldwasser.
Vienna
(OTS) - 735 days ago two Israeli soldiers were
kidnapped to Lebanon against law of nations. Medical
aid for them and a visit of Red Cross International
were refused. In a cynical way, their relatives
were left in uncertainty about their fate. Five
terrorists, thereof a child murderer, undeservedly
received freedom to allow a honourable funeral
for the dead Israeli soldiers.
The
dissymmetry of values and moral speaks for Israel.
