Subject: RE: BS: Israel condemned by UN
You are passing judgement on a whole ethnic group on the basis of one crime by a group of far-Right football hooligans.

What "ethnic group" was I passing judgement on? And "one crime"?? It's a running sore in Israeli football, not a single incident.

If I put up a post condemning racist chanting at an English footie match, would you immediately jump down my throat and claim that I was demonising a "whole ethnic group"? So what's different here? You think I'm chomping at the bit to demonise Jews, is that it? Paranoia of the highest order, Keith, I'm afraid. Just like all those militant Zionist bedfellows of yours, you want to mark out any criticism of Israel as criticism of Jews and shout it down. First you try to trivialise my link, then you try to accuse me of passing judgement on all Jews. Just for once, why can't you do the honest thing and admit that there is a problem of discrimination against Arabs in Israel and that the link revealed one of its instances.
