The United States will not participate in an upcoming U.N. conference in Geneva, Switzerland, on racism unless the conference officials make major revisions to a key document that critics argue unfairly singles out Israel for criticism and that could erode the fundamental right to freedom of speech.

" .. that critics argue .."
We assume that the "critics" are jews.
And what jews want of the USA, the jews get. .
The Arabs/Palestinians do not hold a similar sway over the USA. Are Palestinian "critics" going to prevail upon the USA to reconsider its stand? Not likely.
.
Neither do the Africans. Would African "critics prevail upon the USA on any topic - say the plunder of Africa by western companies, the human trafficking of Africa's children into sex slavery in USA and Europe, or the economic sanctions that have killed multitudes and created a humanitarian crisis in Africa? Hardly.
.
And we note that the USA sides with Israel at the UN.
[And strangely, the USA claims to be neutral in the Israel-Palestine conflict . But then, doesn't the USA of the racism, due process and Guantanamo fame claim that ALL MEN are born equal with a right to ... liberty and happiness?]
For a country that is termed " the world's only superpower and the leader of the free world", the USA sure seems to be cowed - a follower.
