Friends don't let friends be racist
Apartheid without shame or guilt Israel News | Haaretz Daily Newspaper. Will people still call Jimmy Carter anti-Semitic after this poll? After the Arab spring, we can see a future of democratic Arab states and a non-democratic, Apartheid Israel. True friends don't let friends drive drunk; if the US were a real friend of Israel, its government would have the balls to prevent this situation.
"Israelis themselves … are openly, shamelessly and guiltlessly defining themselves as nationalistic racists [...] It's good to live in this country, most Israelis say, not despite its racism, but perhaps because of it. If such a survey were released about the attitude to Jews in a European state, Israel would have raised hell. When it comes to us, the rules don't apply." (Gideon Levy)
