don't the Ashkenazi Jews in Israel consider themselves a step above the semitic Jews. And if true, how do you think they perceive the Palestinians? And wouldn't that make it a racial issue as well as religious?

That's interesting. I never heard that. Shouldn't it be just the opposite, since the sephardi Jews have more of a claim to the land of Israel vs. a somewhat questionable claim of Ashkenazi Jews to the land of Israel / Palistine?


Joe, do you mean semitic Jews [I thought Sephardic was another term for Ashkenazi Jews]? If that's what you mean, you WOULD think the Semites would have a greater claim to Israel but apparently in Israeli culture its the Ashkenazi Jew who has dominated Israeli affairs. From time to time, the semitic Jews complain of discrimination but whether things have changed or not, I do not know. I am surprised you know nothing about this issue.
