I don't think I need to write much here, plenty of things in the article to discuss.

For me? I am baffled, a Swedish politician could never had said anything like that.

He's the SD equivalent in a country where they are currently expanding settlements in a pure occupation grab.

Then again, our regulars are making trice stupid statements instead. Debating climate is much nicer than that though.

[Hooahguy]

Yup. Saw a ton of this when I was there. Blatant racism is everywhere. I was talking to a Yemenite soldier who was complaining that he was being passed over for promotion because he was Yemenite.


Also I think this line was eerie:

"Put everyone without exception into prison or detention camps,"

Well, it only took like six decades to forget history. Ironic for us Jews whose motto seems to be "never forget."

[Kadagar_AV]

Yeah, that line made me go "WTF"...

I am starting to become deeply troubled by the Israeli's. They seem to have some post-WWII-get-out-of-jail-for-free card a'la in the Monopoly game, I just wonder how much longer it lasts?

Also, bordering Iran, how many comments like that can the American populace swallow before they become less inclined to support Israel? I guess this has been quieted down in the US media, but I do wonder what African Americans feel about it.

Im still trying to find a way to release the grip AIPAC has on our government.
Also why I refuse to attend any AIPAC conference, even if it means a free trip to DC.

I crossed that bridge a long time ago. My brother has had extensive business dealings in Israel, and his white-boy take: "There is nobody on God's green earth more racist than the Israelis."

[Hooahguy]

I spent the past year laughing at people who say that Israel is a place that accepts everyone.

Unless you arent Jewish. In that case you arent welcome in Israel except as a tourist so you can be cheated out of your money.

He needs to visit Japan more then.

I might very well be wrong, "what to remember? I was never there" might be more true in this case.

Or to be more clear and as a general question: How much does time of migration and original country influence political stance in Israel?

[Hooahguy]

Well there are still a good number of survivors left, though the number is dwindling.

Sorry, I dont get your question.

Sorry, I dont get your question.

How many of the more radical Isrealis is actually related to holocaust victims/survivors or refugees? And a more general question of how those different groups still have different political opinions. The old hardcore Zionists should've moved to Palestina before things started to go really sour. It's merely a thought and might be completely wrong.

You have no idea what it's like in South Tel-Aviv with all those immigrants, now do you?

[Hax]

And you do?

Discrimination of Sephardim and Mizrahim is not a new thing, it's been around basically since the founding of the state. There's this brand of Israeli cinema in which the Mizrahis are typically regarded as charming cavemen.

I found that the Sephardim prided themselves as being "true" Israelis, while others mock them for being "uncouth barbarians."

[Rhyfelwyr]

Ulster Scots are the true Israelis.

Ulster Scots are the true Israelis.

I knew there was a reason you took one of my green fields
