The two Iranians couldn't handle the conflict between what their culture teaches and reality, but your act of kindness was like a virus. What happened will be pondered and discussed, and they will now start to question the other lies they were taught. You did the right thing, for many reasons.

Reminds me of my Grandma who was a German Jew working as a nurse in a hospital in London during the Blitzkrieg. When a Nazi pilot who was shot down was brought to the hospital lacking blood, she gave blood that saved his life. He tried to tell the doctor that he didn't want to take blood from her because she was Jewish, but the doctor refused to hear of it.

Why do we Jews always try to kiss Muslim Ass? We are so pathetic. The more we try to please them and show them we are good people, the more they treat us like schit.

they were just shocked- lucky they're heads didn't explode- given rampant hate and incitement in the mid-east over Jews

what more did the lifeguards want? They were kissed, hugged, and thanked?.....-_- I don't like the subliminal message behind this

"If they got caught on camera mingling with Israelis they'd face severe penalties and torture back in Iran" True. Also what's up with all the racism on this site? Is this an Israeli right-wing site or some sort of ultra-nationalist news site?

Honestly, people don't know how bad the Iranian government is or what they will do at the slightest infraction. Anyone can come on this site, so... sure, some people are going to be prejudiced or jaded. BUT, that said, A LOT of good people are totally sick of Islamic Supremicists dictating to people and threatening everyone and being destructive. So people aren't racist, they're just anti-totalitarian and tired of the anti-Jewish attitudes on the part of Moslems.
