Ask the people who have to live amongst them. Look at it another way...when anyone talks about any groups of nationalities behaving badly, there are no screams of anti-Russian, anti British, anti-Chinese, anti-Indian etc There's only one lot that does that, every time, in order to try to kill the conversation. Much like no admiring anyone who thinks that they are always right and who are boastful and conceited. We have members like that and people don't like them. That's not racism or against a religion, is it? You wouldn't like anyone from anywhere who behaved like that. Just as you would not appreciate anyone who coughed or belched into your face without at least covering their mouths. What difference does the nationality of that person make? You would think them disgusting. Behaving badly is one thing. The situation is made worse when we have people going into denial mode and attacking others with cries of 'anti-Semitism', which seems to have gone out of fashion of late, now turned into 'jew hate'. Different words, same behaviour. Dismissing people's experiences is only going to enrage them. That's not racism. People don't like their real experiences dismissed and replaced with cries of victimhood. In my experience, I also met Israelis who distanced themselves from the herd and also girls with whom I kept in touch. I travelled to meet and learn from people from other cultures. There were no preconceptions nor prejudices. At that time, the behaviour of Israelis in general, was considered appalling. So much so that their own authorities had to tell them to behave. I'm sure there were people in your own family with whom you might not have seen eye to eye. Was that racism and anti-family member? Crying wolf were there are no wolves, tends to hurt your credibility somewhat. Everyone becomes a terrorist or a jew hater. That's pretty sneaky, isn't it?
