UN Anti-racism conference likely to be avoided by Australia
April 14, 2009
The Australian
FOREIGN Minister Stephen Smith has given the strongest indication yet that Australia is unlikely to attend a controversial UN anti-racism conference.
There are fears the Durban Review Conference, to be held in Geneva from Monday to Friday next week could become a repeat of the original South African event in 2001, which was marred by claims of anti-Semitism.
Mr Smith expects to make a decision on whether Australia will attend possibly days before the main session of the conference on April 24.
Delegates from the US and Israel walked out of the 2001 meeting because much of the discussion focused on Israel being a racist state.
The Opposition has been urging the Rudd Government to withdraw from the conference, known as Durban II.
Australia has been delaying a decision so it could give organisers an opportunity to improve the draft text but the Rudd Government remains dissatisfied with the work done to date.
"I continue to have very grave concerns about the text," Mr Smith said yesterday.
"I continue to have very grave concerns about the prospect of Australia attending (the conference)."
The last opportunity for change appears to be as the group working on the text moves into a preparatory review conference this week.
"I will see how developments unfold in the course of the preparatory review conference before making a judgment," Mr Smith said.
"As things stand, I remain very gravely concerned about the state of the text. I remain very gravely concerned about the prospects of the Durban Review conference being a repeat of the earlier conference, and I expect in the next week or so to be able to make a final judgment about Australia's attendance or not.
"Frankly, unless something qualitatively changes or something qualitatively different occurs, it is most unlikely that Australia will attend the Durban Review Conference in Geneva."

Kevin Rudd's Australia: Paedophilia of the Mind
Racism lessons planned for the under-5s

CHILDCARE centres could be forced to fly the Aboriginal flag and use "persona dolls" to teach youngsters about exclusion and ethical issues.
The guidelines are contained in a draft Federal Government program designed to help teachers deal with children aged under five.
Under the Early Years Learning Framework, childcare workers would be encouraged to teach the children in their care about a raft of social and ethical issues including reconciliation and racism.
Critics of the initiative, which claimed to make children socially responsibly for a "future world", yesterday said youngsters should be left alone to play.
"It is unnecessary and will cause enormous angst in the community," Opposition community services spokeswoman Pru Goward said yesterday.
"Let children be children. I have never heard of racism or discrimination (at a childcare centre).
"For goodness sake, they are three and four years old."
Ms Goward said most centres were good at teaching social inclusion and about Aboriginal heritage to peers at centres attended by indigenous children.
Psychologist, author and speaker Evelyn Field yesterday questioned the need for role modelling using puppets and dolls, instead preferring teachers "keep it simple through encouraging children to play together".
The political emphasis of the guidelines had divided early-learning experts.
Some, such as educational consultant Kathy Walker, yesterday questioned the merits of such issues being "rammed down the throats" of youngsters.
"Although I welcome the emphasis on play-based learning, there is an air of political correctness about the document overall," Ms Walker said.
Others, such as Kindergarten Parents CEO Victoria Meredith Carter, believed it was merely an attempt to "include and welcome all families to join in preschool and kinder".
In less controversial sections, the guidelines focused strongly on play-based learning, the importance of communication and language, the role of family in children's lives and social and emotional development.

Sydney International Airport, 12 "Middle Eastern men assault Female Customs officer
I well remember the Transport Workers Union (TWU) during the previous Howard governments terms of office, holding press conferences at the Sydney International Terminal,Tony Sheldon,if memory serves me correctly,the head of the TWU,looking into the assembled medias TV cameras advising the citizens of Australia that it was only a matter of time (minutes even) before Australians would experience an act of terror at Sydney International Airport due to the Howard governments lax security at Sydney International Airport.
One such case of the TWU alerting the Sydney media to such an imminent catastrophe,was when,what was described by the media as a mentally disabled man, inadvertently accessed a secure area of the terminal, within minutes of this incident taking place,the TWU was joined by not only their adoring media fan club,but surprise,surprise the oppositions shadow minister Robert McClelland, for what I will, loosely call homeland security, ie all things anti terror.
There they were Sheldon and Robert McClelland warning Australians of this close call and demanding everything from the resignation of the Howard Government Minister responsible for National Security, through to free cheese for dead rats in Siberia.
Neither the media or the TWU reported on what happened to the mentally disabled man after he was,I assume was taken into custody and later taken into care by either his family or the relative mental health service providers,there was never a follow up reported on this "poor" mans situation.
The TWU has a very poor record when it comes to security issues at Sydney Airport,their members have been charged and convicted with theft from passenger baggage and using passenger baggage to transport drugs for Union friendly International drug rings.
The TWU and it's members (as is the case of all union members in Australia) are also major Financiers / Bankers / Fundraisers, of the Australian Labor Party (ALP),the present Federal Government of Australia, led by Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, who was elected on November 24 2007.
The attack upon the Female Australian Customs Officer at Sydney Airport,by twelve men of "Middle Eastern appearance" inside the secure Customs area was apparently not thought of as been as serious an incident,as the TWU's and McClelland's "disappearing mentally disabled man" entering a non descript area of the same airport when the Australian Labor Party was in opposition, otherwise they would have had the media out at Sydney International Airport within minutes of the attack taking place wouldn't they ?
I disagree with the Australian Labor Party and their financiers the Transport Workers Union, along with the Customs officers Union, call me crazy but hey I believe we have more to fear from twelve Middle Eastern thugs who are so emboldened by whatever,that they feel they are immune from the restrictions that apply to Australians,that they can enter restricted Royal Australian Customs area's of Sydney International Airport and when challenged and asked to leave they simply vilify and physically assault a Female officer of the Crown,whereupon these twelve brave men ? of Middle Eastern Appearance simply walk away and continue on with their plans unhindered by the AFP or Airport security.
I have said good bye to friends and loved ones at the same entrance to this particular gateway to Customs at Sydney International Airport, there is nothing about the signage that would make anyone think that it was an area open to NON passenger access, I have been inside the same area as a passenger and you simply have no business been there other than as a passenger leaving Australia, so the 'me no speaka da English " defense holds no water at all.
The scary part is that there is NO video footage of the invasion and assault by no less than twelve men of Middle Eastern Appearance.
A man was bashed to death in front of hundreds of passengers at the Domestic terminal some four weeks ago by twenty men who were able to escape by Taxi, before security arrived, there is no video footage of this attack either.
The same weapons used to smash the Domestic terminal victims skull in, were used in the attack upon the Female Royal Australian Customs Officer at the International Terminal, stainless steel bollards used to support the queuing tape.
Sleep tight Australian and International passengers who use Sydney International and indeed all Australian Airports, there has been no further reports of the "mentally disabled man" who so alarmed the TWU, the media and the now Rudd Labor Government, phewwww!!!
Nothing to see here..... move along now ...nothing to see here.
There does seem to be a different set of rules for people awaiting passengers from Middle Eastern arrivals at Sydney Airport, I have seen with my own eyes these people blatantly disregarding all and every security / sign within the arrivals area.
They simply seem to think that the rules of the arrivals terminal, just like every other rule or law in Australia, does not apply to them.
I have been told by Airport staff that their attitude is one of so what we do what we want, try and stop us without a riot taking place by the hoards that they usually bring with them to meet another of their kind arriving.
I have seen them push and shove elderly Australians and children out of their way and dominate seating and eating areas with no regard for common manners and decency, the images you see on TV where they are running in murderous riots over cartoons depicting their infamous Paedophile Pirate Mohammad,are no different than their behaviour when they think they might have to wait an extra minute or two to see some relative or friend emerge through the arrivals exit chute.
But then I am so arrogant and probably Islamophobic and indeed racist, for objecting to this type of Pig Ignorant behaviour by the members of the "Religion of Peace".
