Racism is defined by online Oxford dictionary as: "the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics, abilities, or qualities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races" "prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one’s own race is superior". In what sense do "horrible" white skinned Jews that you love to hate so much, express any of these beliefs as suggested by Oxford dictionary's definition of racism above? In what sense has anyone suggested that white people are "superior" and that black people are "inferior"? I don't consider myself to be superior or inferior to anyone. If I were one of those parents in Eilat I would react the same. The issue is not that they are black. The issue is that they are not Jewish (Asians, Europeans and blonde blue eyed Scandinavians are not Jewish either), they entered our country illegally and that most of us Jews here in Israel don't want them here. If you want to honor the statement of a "multi colored" Israel I suggest you stop this obsessive self victimization of black people and start to treat people on an equal basis. Protecting these non Jewish illegal immigrants merely because they are black is racism, because you believe that blacks should have only rights but no obligations and due to their outward appearance they should be granted legal exemptions. That is pure racism. If you want to see a racist Ethiopian Jew, look yourself in the mirror. It seems you care more about black people then white people merely because they happen to look like you. How about judging people based on the content of their character and not the color of their skin like Martin Luther King once said?

Who has no right to the land of Israel, then why was I allowed to purchase a piece of this same land? Israel didn't seem to worry that much when I gave the money for it. And why I ain't the only one? Face it Alexander, your fantasy about a pure Jewish country is an utopia and it has failed

I am again - not talking about 1) ethic cleansing of non Jews in Israel. 2) I am not talking about civil rights. I am talking about national rights. In the same way as I would be a foreigner in Italy - since I am not ethnically Italian and I have no Jewish national rights in Italy, you are a foreigner in Israel since you are not ethnically Jewish and you have no Italian national rights in Israel. I am refering only to national rights - what ethnic group can claim a piece of land. In the same way as Germany, Austria, France, Sweden and Denmark are nation states and have ethnic minorities among them, Israel too is a nation state - for the Jewish people, where non Jews are foreigners - in the same way as ethnic minorities are foreigners in European countries too. The right to purchase land for private purposes does not give you national rights and does not give you the right to claim that Israel is "your" land. Israel has about 1.4 million Arabs - most of them disloyal to Israel. Why you were allowed into Israel? Most likely because Israel didn't know that you are an anti-Semite and that you hold a grudge against the Jewish people and that you would like the Jewish State of Israel destroyed - while you take other nations for granted, and second - Israel has no laws requiring loyalty of its citizens. These things are about to change. So yes: you have civil rights in Israel but no national rights and since you are not a Jew, you are a foreigner in Israel. In the same way as Jews are foreigners in Italy. I've never talked about a pure Jewish country, but you don't need ethnically "pure" countries to say that the country nationally, ethnically, politically and demographically belongs only to one nation, and that ethnic minorities have civil rights only. The problem with you Gregg is that you deliberately mix up civil rights with national rights and that you want the Jewish State of Israel destroyed while you take other countries for granted - even if they have minorities among them. Can we argue that Italy belongs to Albanians and Poles too?

I am aware of the imposing dangers and cost associated with illegal migrants. I am of the same opinion that laws are not made to be bent, but upheld. In the case of Yinrot who is already in Israel now with her two children, to believe that parents would keep their children home from school and single out migrant children is undeniably racist. And those who've claimed in their defense that "[they] are within [their] rights to keep [their] children -safe-" are, for lack of better words, idiots. You must be mad to think that a single child can pose a threat to an entire school. It is a child, not a bomb or rocket. You can put your Oxford dictionary down for this one and see-with-your-eyes that this case is flat out bullying. There is no other way to look at it. It is a shameful, it is backwards thinking, and it is xenophobic pig-headedness. And I feel sorry for the children who stayed home who did not know, who couldn't have possibly known, that their absence from class would only represent the ignorance of their mothers and fathers. #47 has the right idea, why not just cut to the chase and start lynching illegals? We're certainly not above treating innocent children like lepers.
