A European Durban II petition

A German group recommended by Clemens Heni is circulating a petition urging German, EU or other governments to boycott the Durban II conference in April. This conference is already shaping up as an antisemitic hatefest of the highest order, a worthy successor to the shameful one held in September 2001 in Durban, South Africa.

Some European governments may be considering a boycott, so urging them to do so could help. If you want to sign, click here (just scroll down for the English text). If you look through the list, you'll see a number of American signatures.

This isn't the only petition; last month I posted a link to a U.S. one here. Since then, the Obama Administration has announced that it is returning to the negotiations - while it could still decide to boycott, this is not/not a good sign.
