Israel is making Durban 2 as high a profile as possible on the international scene. It seems that Israel will try to make a case to the world that will make them support Israel in the same way that Israels "fanboy" nations did. This is a risky strategy because the evidence that Israel has racist policies and activities is not exactly hidden. As is often the case, it is easy to make a pitch to a party that is already biased in your favor. Much harder to convince someone that is completely neutral. Often the process will push them in the wrong direction.
