They were a vanquished race. The Jews were basically destroyed. Well, no they weren't, since two thirds of their population was still alive. Psychologically scarred? Absolutely. It is hard to call them a "vanquished race" when Americans wanted to welcome them and the majority of the Jews preferred the U.S. to Israel, but Zionist agitators intervened. No other single race of people would have been able to come back from such destruction. Do you think this positive race steroetype is any less racist than your negative race stereotypes? Tom

First, Jews are not a race. If Arabs were so rabid about Jews, how is it that Jews lived in Arab countries for centuries? If they were so rabid, the Jews would have been annihilated long, long ago. This is Zionist fiction. It is true that Arab countries are less than open and democratic, but you are comparing a Western colony, financed and built on Western principles, by Westerners to what in effect are Third World countries that are resource-based economies. That is less than fair. Besides, Israel is no democracy.
