Foxy,

As I mentioned before, being critical of Israel does not per se make you racist, however, at the same time being completely silent on the murderous Hamas and Fatah does.

shadowminister,

You really are not know very knowledgeable on the subject
at all. Do try to get better informed, then we can continue
this conversation.

Foxy,

Clearly, I am more knowledgeable than you. I am simply using a definition developed at the UN.

Apparently, behaviour that you find acceptable is the bounty paid to Palestinians by their government for killing Jews (incl women and children), throwing gays off buildings and summarily executing "collaborators" who coincidently are political opponents.

shadowminister,

You've made your positions quite clear on the subject
over which I have no control. I have made my positions
quite clear as well. Enjoy your day.

Once the racists stop bleating racism the situation will improve !

I think we are all aware that not all persons are the same.
Skin colour, features, stature, accent when speaking, and many other characteristics, can all vary.
This is because sections of our human race evolved and developed separately, in different parts of the world.
One would need to be blind or stupid not to notice these differences.
Evolving separately gave rise to useful variations in the 'gene pool'.
That can definitely be an advantage for any 'race' which has been interbreeding for thousands of years.

To comment on these differences is not necessarily 'racist'.
Only when remarks are derogatory, or aimed at causing harm or disadvantage to another person, should they be classed as 'racist'?
To shout 'RACISM' when someone comments innocently on a person's accent is a total over-reaction.
Unfortunately, it seems to be becoming fashionable these days to deride any reference to racial difference.
What we really need is a greater amount of friendly discussion about these things.
And an acknowledgement by all persons that we benefit greatly from genetic difference.
