America and Israel walked out of the conference because they claim it degenerated into an Israel-bashing session. In fact, it is they who made such a big deal of the attempts to condemn Israel before the conference even started, and it is they who have pushed the other, equally important racism issues aside, thus hitting several birds with just one stone and evading the weighty slavery issues.

The only weighty slavery issue is the fact that some people in a few countries are slaves. The United States has little to do with this, and no one seemed to care to raise the issue. Instead they want to deal with something that was already dealt with by a bloody war over 130 years ago.

Whatever the motivations for Israel's creation the fact is that it exists as a country now. It is unlikely to disapear nor do I think it should. Arabs can try to negotiate peace with it or they can fight it like the Palistinians are now. The first course seems more productive to me but others might disagree.
