In reply to the discussion: Wife of Israel's interior minister tweets, and deletes, racist joke about President Obama [View all]jwirr
(39,215 posts)6. These Israeli haters are no different than the ones in the USA and they should not wonder why
our country is getting less and less willing to fall for their hate. And why our citizens are getting more anti-Israeli. Of all people in the world the Israeli people should know what hate leads to.

Wake up Israel before you push all of us away.
