These videos are AMAZING. From just looking at them it looks like the average Israeli is more in favor of defending Arabs and Muslims than the average American is. I saw the American version of this and many more Americans let discrimination happen. Actually, this is probably the single most video to convince me to be more tolerant and supportive of Muslims.
Before the psychotic "I HATE ALL ISRAEL" fanatics come in to ejaculate their obsessive compulsive Tazmanian devil fits all over the thread, I just want to say this: Israelis don't hate Muslims and they don't hate Arabs. The 10% which are ULTRA-ORTHODOX Jews in Jerusalem do. They're the problem and they're as much of the problem as Hamas are.
It would really be nice to take the 10% crazy Jews and 10% crazy Muslims and throw them out and then there will be peace.

This is great !! and exactly how I thought the average Jewish person is toward the arabs, Its just a shame that the Zionist Fanatics like Lieberman and his pushing for settlements along with NetanYahu going along with those far righters, fucks up negotiations for peace by continueing the settlement building, over and again I've said the everyday jewish person doesn't share the Fanaticism that blocks peace by stepping on the rights of Palestinians by continuing settlement construction and other violations of their rights. thank you for posting this, and I wish that you all would not confuse disgust for Zionist Fanatics such as C4, (who try to make right and defend, settlements and other violations of Palestinians rights), with being anti semitic. You mentioned the ULTRA ORTHODOX Jews as the problem but you need to add those like Liebermand and the C4 types who make the rest of the good and decent jews look bad, because the good ones are quiet and the bad ones are out there in everyones face finding every way possible to defend displacing Palestinians for settlements. So we call them out !!!. There needs to be more moderate jews calling them out too.
Do any of you have vids of Jewish young people demonstrating against NetanYahu ? Wouldn't it serve the Jewish cause better if you promoted good will between Jews and the Palestinians instead of defending the likes of C4 ? Is there any defense for such things as his Shitzpah to actually suggest and defend his suggestions that the Gazans weren't hungry enough to need the flotilla on which some fanatics killed 9 people, after the fanatics started the aggression ? do yourselves a favor and distance yourselves from such idiots as C4, with friends like him who needs enemies for your cause. ? Think about it !!! Think about not jumping to the conclusion that speaking out in direct terms to counter C4's fanaticism against the rights of Palestinians is not Anti semitic. Grab every opportunity to consider how the palestinians might feel while being put in such deperate positions because of the Zionist Fanatics. then befriend those Palestinians and call out wrongfull Zionist acts against them. You Do this and you will see peace !! keep quiet and defend C4's Ilk and you will be lumped in with him. IS THIS REALLY SO HARD TO SEE? HIS MINDSET DOES HARM TO PEACE !!!
True_Blue_Aussie saidRacism is not a one way street, nor is it the first time in history when the persecuted, become the persecutors, the hunters, the pack of wolves.
Your right here, but its the Zionist fanatics for instance who promote settlements that displace Palestinians, or defend killing 9 people on an aide ship, The C4's that never see anything but Zionism is always right, no points are valid unless in favor of Israel. IT IS NOT THE EVERYDAY JEWISH PEOPLE WHO ARE BEHIND THIS !! The everyday Jewish population don't like a lot of that crap either, but what can they do to stop the likes of Lieberman promoting settlements for instance, unless they join the Palestinians in demonstrations ?
realifedad said This is great !! and exactly how I thought the average Jewish person is toward the arabs,
I'm actually surprised you said this. Kuddos. I thought you were completely bat-shit crazy but it's good to know you don't view the whole country of Israel as NEONAZIFASCISTRACISTZIONISTPOOPBLAHBLAHBLAH

I stopped reading your post after you said "Zionist Fanatics" I swear man its people like you, with the mind set like yours on both side who are the obstacle of peace, I'm sure in your mind you think you are right and you are for peace, but its just that childish inappropriate language, and name calling that you do all the time, which causes bitterness for each other. You called C4, Me, and Lieberman a "Zionist Fanatic" I am a member of Meretz, a lefty/liberal political party in Israel, Lieberman's party is in the opposite side of the political spectrum, I have no Idea where C4 stands in Israeli politics, but the fact remains your attitude resembles a witch hunt against Jewish people who do not see eye to eye with you on the issues...
It's like the fucking idiots who label all Muslims in the same category... Muslims are so diverse in every way possible to be diverse, from their skin color to their nationality. From political opinion to the the way they see God and the Koran, (Sunni, Shiite, Zaidi, Ismaili and Sufism) yet... in their had if a muslim person does not see eye to eye with them on some issues they are a... Pick one: Islamic Extremist, Terrorist, Muslim Extremist, Jihadist....)
If you want to personally attack people of the Jewish faith, then you are achieving that goal. However, if you want to peace peace and corporation between 2 nations that are blood related, then you need to change the way you do things. my 2cents, Tnx.

your '2cents' worth was rendered useless by your saying that you stopped reading as soon as you read the words ZIONIST FANATICS, you again jumped to the conclusion that I was labeling all jews as fanatics, you claimed I called you a ZIONIST FANATIC, no I did not, I gave you hell a few times for defending one name here CEASEREA4, You went on above at length to say that I was lumping all jews in with him and that I shouldn't do that and that its people who label like "me" that are the problem.
Trouble is your doing to me what you claim I am doing to all jews
for the umteenth time a ZIONIST FANATIC is one who like C4 only sees things as right if they are to the benefit of Israel, such as steeling land and displacing Palestinians from their homes then building settlements, another example is defending such blatant abuses of human rights as initiating violence in international waters and killing 9 people on an aid flotilla. Lieberman is one of the prmary ZIONIST FANATICS who promote building settlements on Palestinian land and territories. There is no better way to expose such people than to call it what it is, ZIONIST FANATICISM, that is what created and still is creating the block to peace, it is not the people who expose their fanaticism and lebel it what it is. Why are you so afraid of the truth where those two are concerned ?? Is it not Zionists who promote building settlements on stolen lands ? Is it not Fanatical to actually believe that its right and ok to do that as long as its for Israel ? Is it not fanatical to live and breath and support that anything done for Israel is always right and that anyone who exposes their wrongdoing is a jew hater.
Could you summarize what and who do you believe a Zionist is, I'm truly trying to understand your point of view, Who is a Zionist in your view, and what qualifies one to be a Zionist.
dglater saidCould you summarize what and who do you believe a Zionist is, I'm truly trying to understand your point of view, Who is a Zionist in your view, and what qualifies one to be a Zionist.
A Zionist in its pure and rightful form is one who believes in a Jewish homeland, there is nothing wrong with jewish people wanting and looking forward to having a homeland
a ZIONIST FANATIC is a zionist whose mindset has it that they should get that homeland at any cost, no matter whose rights they trample on to get their homeland, They will use and defend whatever tactics it takes. To me Lieberman is an example of a ZIONIST FANATIC, he has pushed for settlement building, for removing palestinians, and he believes there is nothing at all wrong with it.
C4 is one also, he defends every wrongful act against the Palestinians according to his posts,
now you see that there is a difference between my giving hell to fanatics who trample over Palestinians rights and how I have no problem whatever with the majority of Jewish people who may or may not be pro jewish homeland or Zionists, but the Fanatics give Zionism a very bad name.
I am hoping that you can see that I am not in the least prejudiced agains Jewish people, I just think its very wrong to kick someone off their land, then build a home on it as a zionist fanatic would do, there is no excuse for doing that.
You would find me very friendly to you, but if you supported Leibermans idea for annexing settlements that sit on land that belongs to palestinians, then we could not get along. do you see the difference ?
In realifedad's defense, I did train him to use the phrase "Zionist fanatic" instead of "Zionist" to differentiate between psychopathic ultra-orthodox Jews who wanted Israel to be a Jewish state at all costs (the former) and the normal Jews who simply believed that they should have a Jewish country (the latter). If anything it nudges realifedad's rhetoric slightly towards being more focused and relevant on what he dislikes.

Like I said before I support Meretz, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Movement_%E2%80%93_Meretz
not a fan of Lieberman, but I also understand the fact that Bibi, had to have him there to form a coalition so he can be in power, thats just politics.
ok as to your answer, yea I see where you are coming from, now tell me so as a Jew, are you shocked that one gets offended when people use the term Zionist to if in it by its self it was a derogatorily term?
dglater, good to read your pleasant messages. I'm not shocked that jewish people would be upset about the use of the word Zionism. What I cannot understand though is why they would not expect the worlds onlookers to be down on supporters of the kind of Zionism responsible for taking Palestinians lands and then building settlements on them.
Additionally If anyone points that out as wrong to most jewish people, the person doing so is immediately labeled as a Jew Hater, then the jewish person goes into defending that faction of Zionism doing the wrong against the palestinians. Then they wonder why Zionism is becoming a term covering Jewish people in general.
Here on RJ we have C4 that defends and goes to great torturous lengths to justify everything ever done against the rights of Palestinians, if it was done by a fellow Zionist on behalf of Israel, Its right and there is a righteous reason behind it according to him, This C4 belittles every Palestinian, middle Easterm person, or anyone else as soon as they point out wrongs, labeling them liars, liars for the cause, Jew Haters, Stupid and god knows how many more derogatory names and statements. Call him out for it, or use his own tactics against him because his rhetoric begs for it and the jewish members go into overdrive to defend him and start throwing out the Jew Hater statements.
Again, why are jewish people not calling these kind of fanatics out themselves? rather than defending such actions, when you defend wrong you get labeled right along with them, so it stands that if a fanatical zionist is called out for wrongdoing, don't defend him if you don't want to appear just like him. You wouldn't be any less jewish because you won't go along with wrongs done by a Zionist Fanatic who makes all of you look bad, especially if you defend him.
Lastly, your being reasonable to converse with here, your not labeling me Jew Hater for telling you what I think, and I'm not labeling you a Zionist Fanatic either, actually I never thought you were anyways, no reason we cannot talk is there. There's a lot of difference between talking to you and a fanatic like C4, Its refreshing !!
Despite the misleading topic title, this undercover video in Israel shows that most Israelis (only 5% agreed with the staged seller boycotting Arabs) not only aren't racist but disagreed vehemently, offering to buy - or just buying - the Arab (actress) the coffee that the concessionaire (actor) wouldn't provide and threatening to call the police since such discrimination is illegal in Israel.
A study in hatist racist nonsense:
realifedad> the C4 types who make the rest of the good and decent jews look bad
This statement is no different than the homophobes who pretend that drag queens or leather daddies "make the rest of the good and decent gays look bad".
Indeed, the notion that an alleged small minority can make the entire group "look bad" is the very foundation of racism.
I suspect it won't surprise many that RLD has also come out saying that Jews are Christ killers. (Followed up by pouncer saying that at least Muslims revere Christ as a prophet.)
dglater> [RLD's] attitude resembles a witch hunt against Jewish people who do not see eye to eye with you on the issues...
That's exactly right. On one hand he pretends that some of his best friends are Jewish, that he has nothing against the Jews most of whom are "good and decent" people, but then he justifies his witch hunt (i.e. stalking & bullying) by labeling each and every Jew who dares to speak up as a "bad" Jew. Or even if he doesn't speak up. As he himself says: "keep quiet and defend C4's Ilk and you will be lumped in with him." In RLD's racist mind, the only good Jew is the "cured Jew" (think cured homosexual) or the Capo.
JakeBenson> it nudges realifedad's rhetoric slightly towards being more focused and relevant on what he dislikes.
It just allows him to mask his own extremist hate with a faux qualifier.
JB> ULTRA-ORTHODOX Jews in Jerusalem... They're the problem and they're as much of the problem as Hamas are.
False equivalence. These Jews do not advocate the genocide of Arabs or Muslims, unlike Hamas. These Jews do not (with only a handful of noteable exceptions - over decades) perpetrate attacks on civilians. Unlike Hamas terrorism (which RLD and his ilk seek to rationalize and justify rather than condemn).
dglater> I have no Idea where C4 stands in Israeli politics
Neither does RLD (nor does it matter to him), but as noted that doesn't stop his tirade of hate.
One need look no further than these topics to see just how full of it he is:

Many Zionists like Lieberman and Bibi doesn't really consider them (Meretz) Zionists. Meretz was established in 1992 and they are not that big group in Israel. They are like 3 seats in Knesset and there are like 120 members in the Knesset? I wish all the Zionists be like Meretz supporters and share land with the Palestinians.
I am sure the supporters of Meretz group will disagree with those quotes? If yes, then they're not Zionists according to Yitzhak and Sharon.
Yitzhak Shamir, Maariv, 02/21/1997The settlement of the Land of Israel is the essence of Zionism. Without settlement, we will not fulfill Zionism. It's that simple.
Ariel Sharon, Israeli Foreign Minister, addressing a meeting of militants from the extreme right-wing Tsomet Party, Agence France Presse, November 15, 1998It is the duty of Israeli leaders to explain to public opinion, clearly and courageously, a certain number of facts that are forgotten with time. The first of these is that there is no Zionism, colonialization, or Jewish State without the eviction of the Arabs and the expropriation of their lands.
Give me one Israeli prime minsters that are members of Meretz group.
Really Caesarea4? If you believe in peace with the Palestinians, then I am sure you don't support illegal settlements (which you don't believe they are illegals) and you don't support Israeli apartheid wall that divided Palestinian towns, schools, and hospitals. If you support peace, then why do Israeli government ethnic cleansing the Palestinians in East Jerusalem? Wipe Palestinians off the map like Iranian leader said about Israel?
You are such a phony and not smart in this subject (Israeli-Palestinian conflict). Do us all a favor, stop bashing the Palestinian people. You are so freaking weird.
You're a simpleton who confuses slogans and soundbites for thought and whose only goal is to demonize Israel. Not in the cause of peace, but in an attempt to rationalize and justify the contued war to destroy the Jewish state.
You oppose negotiations and compromise and delude yourself into thinking that "peace" is to be achieved by Israel surrendering to a list of ransom demands (with no assurances of anything in return).
For others not so limited, I suggest they review these topics:
"Palestine" is the Latin/European name for Eretz Yisrael, the Jewish homeland - and Arab denials of the existence of "Palestine". http://www.realjock.com/gayforums/349491

Actually I agree with dglater and JakeBenson here. To my surprise they come across as reasonable - even as c4 does not. To clarify a little bit - c4 regularly defends the policies of Binyamin Netanyahu, is a proud and outspoken supporter of Israel's settler activity in the West Bank (this alone places him definitively to the right of most Israelis) and has even gone so far as stating that there are "many reasons" to consider Ariel Sharon a "hero".
To Jake's point (which c4 saw no alternative but to spurn) this from last year is worth reading:
http://www.slate.com/id/2274918/ Those of us who keep an eye on the parties of God are avid students of the weekly Sabbath sermons of Rabbi Ovadia Yosef. In these and other venues, usually broadcast, this elderly Sephardic ayatollah provides an action-packed diet that seldom disappoints. A few months ago, he favored his devout audience with a classic rant in which he called down curses on the Palestinian Arabs and their leaders, wishing that a plague would come and sweep them all away. Last month, he announced that the sole reason for the existence of gentiles was to perform menial services for Jews: After that, he opined, their usefulness was at an end. A huge hubbub led to his withdrawal of the first of these diatribes. (I would be interested to know if this was on partly theological grounds. After all, the local Palestinians may still have some labor to perform before the divine plan is through with them.) The second sermon, so far as I know, still stands without apology. Why on earth should anybody care about the ravings of this scrofulous medieval figure, who peppers his talk of non-Jews in Palestine with comparisons to snakes, monkeys, and other lesser creations, rather as Hamas and Hezbollah refer to the Jews? Well, one reason is that he is the spiritual leader of the Shas Party, an important member of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition. Indeed, two key portfolios, of the Interior and of Construction and Housing, are held by Shas members named Eli Yishai and Ariel Atias.
c4I suspect it won't surprise many that RLD has also come out saying that Jews are Christ killers. (Followed up by pouncer saying that at least Muslims revere Christ as a prophet.)
A direct, bold-faced lie.
OK, pouncer only confirmed RLD's racist comment.
realifedad> Jews rejected the bible's Christ and hung him on a cross. ...So what does Judaism teach about this Jesus, do they believe like the Muslims that he was a great teacher/prophet ? Or was he a total impostor as far as Judaism teaches?
pouncer> More or less the latter. Jews are still waiting for the real Messiah to come. Generally they have a pretty strong belief that he will at some point turn up (though he may tarry) and they read the Bible as saying that he'll only come once all of the land of Israel is Jew-populated (hence the crazed rush to settle the West Bank). For Jews this putative "coming" will be the first (Jesus wasn't the Messiah) but for Christians it'll actually be Jesus' second coming that they think they'll be getting. (What they don't tell Jews is that in the Christian tradition Christ kills or converts all the Jews in this glorious future event for doubting him).
sxydrkhair> Meretz was established in 1992 and they are not that big group in Israel. They are like 3 seats in Knesset and there are like 120 members in the Knesset? I wish all the Zionists be like Meretz supporters and share land with the Palestinians.
Meretz wasn't really new in 1992 but a merger of 3 parties, including Mapam (dating back to 1948, the other two dating back to the early 1970s).
Meretz isn't the only party that supports sharing land and has lost support to other such parties (primarily Kadima - Israel's largest!) as well as due to on-going Arab violence and terrorism.
Where and what is the counterpart to Meretz, or even Kadima, amongst the Palestinian Arabs?
