The 8th World Conference on Injury Prevention and Safety Promotion (Safety 2006) is being held in Durban this week. Notable delegates addressing the Conference will be President Thabo Mbeki; Her Majesty, Queen Rania Abdullah of Jordan, UN Ambassador for Violence and Injury Prevention; Dr Manto Tshabalala-Msimang, SA Minister of Health; and Dr Lee Jong-wook, Director General of the WHO.
Professor Virginia Tilley, arch-enemy of Israel and author of "The One State Solution", will also be talking on “Safety, state and peace promotion in the Middle-East.” Tilley will as usual be peddling propaganda and distorting reality trying to evince maximum disdain for Israel.
What that topic has to do with the theme of the Conference is anyone’s guess – but given the feelings of SA towards Israel, it appears that any and every subject dealt with here is somehow associated with it.
