In reply to the discussion: Yes, Netanyahu, Let's Talk About Ethnic Cleansing [View all]shira
(30,109 posts)7. What's up with yet another OP from a vile racist like Gideon Levy?
You said it yourself, "racism is about targeting a person or a group due to their ethnicity".
Gideon Levy does exactly that & yet you pretend there's nothing racist about him and keep peddling his hatred here.
So I ask, WTF?
Gideon Levy arguing Jews believe they're superior, chosen, and better than everyone else. Anyone familiar with David Duke of the KKK & White Nationalism knows this argument is his rhetoric over at Stormfront.

Another from Gideon Levy...
At the end of a terrible day, it is this that leads to the burning of families whom God did not choose. No principle in Israeli society is more destructive, or more dangerous, than this principle. Nor, unfortunately, more common. If you were to examine closely what is concealed beneath the skin of most Israelis, you would find: the chosen people. When that is a fundamental principle, the next torching is only a matter of time.

Blatant racist attack on all Jews, which you would recognize if aimed at Palestinians.
Again, WTF?
