...resolution been accepted in its original form, as a proposal by several African states to condemn apartheid and proclaim a "Decade for the Elimination of Racism," the United Nations might have been commended for achieving a long-sought goal. But the inclusion of the amendment defining Zionism as racism and its passage by an overwhelming majority of member states, not only defames the United Nations' name; as black leaders and church groups in this country have pointed out, it also hampers the U.N.'s ability to pursue its worthwhile goal of eradicating true racism throughout the world...

He's not been prepared during incarceration to shoulder responsibility. I don't condemn a man who's been out six months and then commits another crime.
