Racist? Well… um… noooo. Of course not. It’s just a “delicate situation”… just don’t want to lose our country to them… That’s basically what Israeli right-wingers are saying. Why does racist rhetoric always sound the same? Great investigative reporting by The Nation.

“[W]e have Israel which is supposed to be a beacon for Democracy in the Middle East demonstrating venom and hatred on par with any KKK and Neo-Nazi group.”

– Davey D
