| Western leaders recoil in horror at Iran speech |
| 2009-04-22 |
| [Al Arabiya Latest] Western leaders recoiled in horror Monday at a fierce anti-Israel speech by Iran's president at a U.N. conference on racism, as the Czech Republic joined a growing boycott of the week-long gathering. As Washington denounced the Islamic Republic's "hateful rhetoric," U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon effectively said Mahmoud Ahmadinejad had betrayed his trust. The Iranian leader used his podium in Geneva to criticize the creation of a "totally racist government in occupied Palestine" in 1948, calling the Israeli administration "the most cruel and repressive racist regime." |

| #5 "Al Arabiya has less of a slant than most US outlets" The beheadings haven't started yet. |

| #4 I don't know if it's Fred's editing or if the source is really that neutral, but most of the reporting listed here from Al Arabiya has less of a slant than most US outlets - like it's really a news organization rather than an agenda-driven organization. huh. |

| #3 What I haven't heard is how racist Arabs are? I guess its too politically incorrect. Arabs and that Persian guy were actually giving a lesson on that very subject in Geneva - the media just chose not to comment on it explicitly. |

| #1 Too many Arab Israelis choose not to be well educated, Gaza has become Judenrein and the West Bank is pushing to become so, the rest of the Arab world either expelled their Jewish populations post 1948 or attempted to drive them out. Who, then, is practicing the greater racism? /sorry. I realize there isn't any point in speaking to those who will not hear. |
