The Race Theory (Haaretz)

THE RACE THEORY
Deputy-Minister Boim and Knesset-Member Hazan declared
that all Muslims are murderers by birth.It is in their genes.

If this had been said about the Jews on any TV program in Europe or America, the station chief would have been fired within hours.

If this had been said about the Jews in any parliament in Europe or America, the member would have been forced to resign within hours.
Even if he had "apologized".

Only in Israel does such racist talk pass almost without reaction.
In the State of "the Survivors of Racism", racism has now become routine.



"Haaretz" 27/02/04

2. Racism? Amongst Israeli officials?
Where? I don't see it. It must be made up. Gush-Shalom is really anti-semitic. So is the BBC. The ISM are hate-mongering terror-lovers. Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East. Why are you bashing only little Israel. Noam Chomsky supports holocaust-revionism. Saint Rachel Corrie died of stupidity. Uri Avnery ain't nuthin but shit. Israel only defends herself. All killings of Palestinian civilians are accidents. Oh my. All hail the Peace Fence. Palestinian land is really "disputed" territory. Sharon only wants to make the world a safer place.

4. These "officials"

Consider that for just a moment.

5. This is beyond words....
If ANYBODY would have made such a statement about jews there would
have been a serious backlash. Now, Israeli government officials
are making blatant racist remarks...yet...no outcry? :eyes:

Hmmm...makes one think, no?

7. Israel should become a monarchy and crown Uri Avnery King

Then he could dismiss sharon. All very democratic, very European.

Israel wants to be in the EU, don't they? Well...

9. "Get pry..." ?
Just asking.

I did not now he was got stuck up there.

Pesky Israeli leftists! If they want real peace and oppose Israeli Anti-Semitism against Palestinians, then others say they smell like Arab shit.

Something is wrong with this picture.

Israelis who promote peace and a just Judaism should be considered righteous.

10. Why does the media and government give Israel a free pass on racism?
It isn't as bad as the Saudis are Egpytians but it gets a complete free pass.

Edited on Sat Feb-28-04 12:28 AM by Aidoneus
only the "they" people get the non-free pass treatment.. incitement against loyal agents and productive properties serves no purpose.

12. Israeli racists? Nonsense!
The Palestinians are "..beasts walking on two legs." Menahim Begin, speech to the Knesset, quoted in Amnon Kapeliouk, 'Begin and the "Beasts"', New Statesman, 25 June 1982.

"Jewish blood and a goy's (gentile's) blood are not the same." Israeli Rabbi Yitzhak Ginsburg, Inferring that killing isn't murder if the victim is Gentile. Jerusalem Post, June 19,1989.
