1. Sad, but true. Although I'm not sure "racist" is the right term. Maybe ethnic or tribal.

The Israelis are definitely gradually ethnic cleansing the Palestinian areas.

3. Good point, actually

If you & I were to observe a dozen Middle Easterners identically dressed, we most likely would not be able to distinguish the 6 Israeli Jews from the 6 Palestinian Arabs.

5. Oh, it's racism all right..

albeit, many Palestinians are in fact semites, in the eyes of Israeli's they're all subhuman, dirty Arabs.

That alone is racist bigotry. When a group of people decides that another group of people are subhuman, just mere animals, then it's ok to subjugate, torture and kill at will.

Yeah, it's racism alright.

2. You're welcome, Roy,

and I agree with BillZ's thought that 'racist' might not be the right term; will think about it.
