How do you know he's a Jew?

You're stereotyping again.

Haaretz is exclusively Jewish. Name one Arab journalist at Haaretz. Go on.

Let's take this a bit further.
Often ethnic conflict is enhanced by nationalism and feeling of national superiority. For which reason inter-ethnic hatred borders with racism, and often the two terms are conflated.

I am considering changing my mind and referring to anti-Semitism as racism. I appear to be in good company.

As you've acknowledged, Jews are not a race. Therefore, your assumptions are invalid.

As always, Gawd, you would do your political critique a power of good if you ascribed the actions you wish to criticise to the correct target; the Israeli government and/or polical parties therein (or even the settler movement)

Lie, eh? Seems like you no longer have any grounds to call me "racist" and you are special pleading.

What's the difference? Bigotry is bigotry, racial, religious, whatever.

And when did I call you a racist?

A logical fallacy. There are plenty of Jewish people, both in Israel and around the world who oppose the policies of the current government. When you rant about Jews in general, you are over-generalising. Even the rather tired and often misused term "Zionist" would be preferable, since it at least implies a sub-set of Jews with strong feelings about the Jewish nature of the Israeli state.

But then he wouldn't get to stuff it up their noses, and pretend there's no racism involved.
