UN Open For Anti-Semitism On Yom Kippur, Closed For Business On Ramadan

Closed

"Equality" at the United Nations under the management of the Organization of the Islamic Conference
October 8-9, 2008: The only two substantive planning sessions for the UN's so-called "anti-racism" conference - known as Durban II - were deliberately planned over major Jewish holidays, including the holiest day of the Jewish calendar, Yom Kippur.
September 30, 2008: By contrast, in order to observe the Eid holiday to mark the end of Ramadan, the United Nations shut down totally in both New York and in Geneva.

Which is weird, because you'd think that they'd want to celebrate Eid with something more dramatic. Like calling Israelis Nazis while they themselves go around burning thousands of books. Or appointing Khaddafi Prize founders and anti-Semitic Truthers to report on imagined Israeli human rights abuses. Or at the very least condemning Israel in the UNHRC a couple dozen times or calling for an anti-Israel boycott or something.

Anything short of genocidal anti-Semitism just feels like kind of anti-climactic, ya know? Although I guess that's what last week was for.
