Tolerance and Manners in the Middle East
Note that it's hard to convey digital sarcasm.
This is a really troubling article. The Jews have gone through their own unfair share of religious persecution (which has its roots in social animosity), so they of all people should no better.
The general hypocrisy of this situation is also not lost on me. Abe Foxman and his type are quick to spot anti-Semitism in the most ridiculous places. Further, there's still an international movement to get random countries to recognize the Jewish holocaust (Greece, of all countries, was recently pressured into building a memorial; why?). Somehow I doubt Foxman and friends would go out of their way to ensure that Christians in Israel are treated with a bit more respect, and I know they'd never bother to help the Christians in places like India that are harassed and injured.
