Those of you who are using specific incidents to paint the whole of the Palestinian or Arab or Muslim people with a broad, broad brush are doing exactly the same thing as people who say all Jews are (name your poison) because of what some Jews are doing in Israel (or wherever). It's the same racism, the same bigotry.

Everything that is being used as a way of condemning all Palestinians on this thread (or all Arabs or all Muslims) can also be said about the people on the other side (the Israelis, the US, etc). I'll start gathering documentation shortly, and I'll post it when I have a chance.

Terribus, I'll be responding to your posts as time allows.
