Troops fired warning shots, and direct fire in some cases, at the suspects who approached the area. There are several Lebanese people dead and wounded in the incidents. Four Hezbollah operatives were also detained today.

    Trying to apply american racism to israeli demographics may be one of the quickest ways to show your ignorance on the topic.

      Wdym Israelis are very racist on average so it does make a lot of sense. You cant surivive the mandatory time in the IDF without at least pretending to be racist.

        Against my better judgement, I’ll take a crack at this.

        American racism, as displayed in the Family Guy meme, is based on skin color. In Israel/Palestine, racism is not based on skin color. Jews aren’t all light skinned, and Arabs aren’t all dark skinned.

      I think the sentiment is the same and correctly enough portrayed in the meme to get it across. Point being, it’s an arbitrary line.

      Also, is America uniquely racist, or just the most prominent because extra guns/cops and a larger news presence?

      israeli demographics

      I guess since South Lebanon is defacto occupied that means Lebanese people are Israelis now.
