Jews were put out of 141 countries in time. Amir Benayoun the Israeli singer who threatened death on Obama in a song can't get a visa to come the shores of the US to perform at the UN. The US we are trying to extradite an Israeli as I type. You got to watch these Israelis,,,, but preferably on the Netflix series "Fauda".
2. THE HOSTEL LOOKS LIKE A SHITHOLE

3. LOOKS LIKE A NICE HOSTEL.

4. not so bad.....
Joe Wyse ,   Hadera   (01.15.18)
......at least the hostel made themselves clear. Much better than having the cook pee in your coffee at breakfast and then you drinking it unawares. for all we know we Israelis are getting preferential treatment....it's quite possible that they do much worse things to Americans, Brits, Brazilians, Chileans and Argentines, not to mention Colombians and Mexicans who stop for the night without warning them...after all Uruguayan hosteliers are notoriously xenophobic, so all vacationers should steer clear of that particular establishment unless they need to use the loo.
oh, and one question ...does the ban include Israeli Moslems, Israeli Christians or are we just talking about Israeli Jews here.
5. Very good. Now let’s do the same to Lorde

Ban her all over the world wherever we can. This the only way to extirpate the evil antisemites from our lives
6. Uruguay becaming racist?remember Rodriguez Fabregat?
david ,   ramat hasharon   (01.15.18)
As an Israeli who was born and raised in Uruguay ,a country with a strong tradition of liberalism and hospitality I am appalled ,hurt and angry.
this is not an example of the uruguay I grew up,
Something is changing for the bad.
however so is here in Israel
7. Israeli tourists are uncivilized
George Steiner   (01.15.18)
Unfortunately, many hotels and hostels - worldwide - are not too enthusiastic about Israelis. They behave like Barbarians, leave a mess, are noisy and dirty, tend to take 'souvenirs.' It's a lot easier to invent a political excuse than say it bluntly how uncivilized Israelis are.
8. The same happens in Israel all the time
Ex-Oleh Chadash   (01.22.18)
Some Arab owners did not want to host me. They don't want to help a Jew to settle.
Some Jewish "hosts" also discriminate you against your age (that generous man that offers a hostel for free in JLM)
I was planning to come back. I give up again.
9. An unlicensed business
BUILD BABY BUILD !!   (01.21.18)
with a policy of anti semitism that assures its failure.

Uncivilized?
The blatant anti semitic bigotry didn't allow the tourists to enter how could they be 'uncivilized.'?

More to the point when did any hotel ban Muslims for having so many Muslim terrorists?

You'll think more clearly when you get your cranium removed from your rectum.

Illegal business will be gone with the wind as will any profits.
11. Israeli Tourists Are The Scourge Of The Hospitality Business
World Citizen ,   the world   (03.08.18)
Being in the business and seeing and hearing of their loud, obnoxious, arrogant and thieving behavior I have banned Israelis from my small hotel. I know them by listening for the the accent, or how loud they speak or seeing how trashy they look. It's easy to say I have no vacancies. Too many other polite nationalities to book Israelis.
