This book is a dramatic history of the 1975 U.N. General Assembly Resolution equating Zionism with racism. The campaign for the abrogation of the Resolution began with the 1985 International Women's Conference in Nairobi, which showed it was possible to stem the anti-Zionist tide. The commitment and activism of the U.S. administration and the critical role of the Austrailian government were decisive factors. The resolution's overturn in 1991 helped put an end to Israel's pariah status, removed a moral stain on the U.N., restored its ability to fight anti-Semitism, and enabled the U.N. to condemn anti-Semitism as a form of racism.
