If They're Looking for Racism, Just Visit the DNC

Some clown from the UN appropriately named Doudou will be visiting the United States looking to stir up some trouble and call us all racists.

A special U.N. human rights investigator will visit the United States this month to probe racism, an issue that has forced its way into the race to secure the Democratic Party's presidential nomination.

The United Nations said Doudou Diene would meet federal and local officials, as well as lawmakers and judicial authorities during the May 19-June 6 visit.

"The special rapporteur will...gather first-hand information on issues related to racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance," a U.N. statement said on Friday.

His three-week visit, at U.S. government invitation, will cover eight cities -- Washington D.C., New York, Chicago, Omaha, Los Angeles, New Orleans, Miami and San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Well, since those are all liberal Democrat enclaves, he'll be certain to find plenty of bigotry and hatred, directed in particular at Republicans.

Glad to see all the world's ills have been cleaned up that Doudou now finds it important to come to the most openly tolerant society on the face of the Earth to unearth some racism.

Maybe he can have a sitdown with Jeremiah Wright while he's in Chicago and ask him why he hates white people so much.

Good News: Islamophobia Rising in Eurabia

If you define Islamophobia as fear of having your head lopped off because you draw a cartoon of Mohammed (peanut butter upon him), then let's hope it keeps increasing.

Maybe at some point the Europeans who have a sense of self-preservation will wisen up and start limiting immigration from Islamic hellholes.

Islamaphobia on rise, especially in Europe: U.N. envoy

GENEVA (Reuters) - The United Nations investigator on racism on Friday condemned a rising trend of Islamaphobia, especially in Europe, where he said it was being exploited by some right-wing political parties.

Doudou Diene, U.N. special rapporteur on racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related forms of intolerance, also accused Switzerland's most popular party, the right-wing Swiss People's Party (SVP/UDC), of inciting hatred.

He urged the withdrawal of the party's controversial campaign poster calling for expulsion of foreigners who commit serous crimes, depicting three white sheep booting out a black sheep under the headline "For the Security of All".

"In the current context, Islamaphobia constitutes the most serious form of religious defamation," Diene said in a speech and report to the U.N. Human Rights Council, whose 47 member states were holding a debate on religious defamation.

More and more political leaders and influential media and intellectuals were "equating Islam with violence and terrorism," and some were seeking to "silence religious practices by banning the construction of mosques", Diene said.

Pakistan, speaking for the Organisation of the Islamic Conference (OIC), called the rise of Islamaphobia "alarming".

"Recent acts of defamation in the shape of blasphemous sketches in Sweden and posters in Switzerland reinforce this conclusion. Such blasphemy should not be encouraged in the name of freedom of expression," Pakistan's envoy Masood Khan said.

He said the 57-nation OIC, which represents 1.3 billion Muslims, condemned terrorism in all its forms.

Equating Islam with violence and terrorism? How that ever happen?

Out of my longheld respect for the office of the special rapporteur on racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related forms of intolerance, I'll refrain from making any jokes about the name Doudou.
