How the UN declared Zionism a form of racism

Original: How the UN declared Zionism a form of racism - Britain then lobbied against revoking the resolution

In 1975 the UN General Assembly passed Resolution 3379, declaring Zionism a form of racism and racial discrimination. The resolution stood until 1991, when it was revoked, with the United Kingdom lobbying against its repeal beforehand. The history is drawing renewed attention amid ongoing debate over Israel, Palestine and the role of international institutions.

Why now: Renewed interest in the history of UN resolutions on Israel amid current debate over the Israel-Palestine conflict.
