Durban III Hate-Fest excludes UN Watch from attending but permits Gaddafi-funded organization

UN Watch has been a strong critic of Human Rights abusers like Iran, Syria, China and Libya, all of whom have at one point or another been members of the ironically named United Nations Human Rights Council at one point.

Evidently disliking having their hypocrisy pointed out to them, the organizers of Durban III, which the world's major democracies have declared that they would boycott, have banned UN Watch.  Probably because it couldn't be a proper hate fest with those party-poopers from a genuine human rights organization pointing out what a bunch of assholes the tyrannies that are participating in Durban III are.

US joins Canada and Israel in boycotting farcical Durban 3

The United States yesterday announced it would not attend the ironically-named United Nations World Conference Against Racism. The previous two conferences, nicknamed `Durban,`after the site of the original one ten years ago, have been marred by displays of overt anti-Semitism and rabid anti-American rhetoric.

Canada was the first country to announce it would not attend, followed by Israel. Eighteen US Senators, both Republicans and Democrats, had urged the Obama administration to follow Canada`s lead and boycott the 2011 version of the conference. In a letter to New York Senator Kirsten Gilibrand, the US State Department, citing `ugly displays of intolerance and anti-Semitism`in the Durban process, announced it would not participate in the event to be held in New York on September 21, 2011.
