Not to p;ss on anybody's strawberries or anything, but wasn't the guy a Blue Cross ambulance driver in the Middle east somewhere? I seem to remember a post he wrote about Israeli soldiers dragging victims from ambulances...
I think that would mean that he's met a fair number of them in his time...
Hang one, here it is:

Originally posted by WheelyYet again, you've quoted 50% of what he said and ignored the other half... which suprise, suprise was the generalising and sweaping derogatory statements!
I don't think I'll continue with this because I keep saying the same thing over and over again which is getting a bit dull but here we go.
He said all the Israelis HE HAD MET were not likeable. He did sort of infer that they must all be like the ones he has met which is a bit stupid (though not entirely illogical). He then asked someone to help him under ink about it again e.g. racist or PC
b) we don't have to bother to read what they said.
Yes, he DID say 'he's never met a nice one' but he DIDN'T ask for help he DARED someone to prove him wrong by justifying how they've been nice in their lives or giving an example of someone they don't want to eradicate!

Originally posted by WheelyNow this argument I can go along with. However you can't find out by immediately taking his side on the matter and making up hypothetical either. You made up a hypothetical reason for not liking Israelis. Now let me make up one. How do we know that the reason none were friendly to him is because the poster might have been wearing a tee shirt that said " I hate Jews." With a swastika sign on the back? Or maybe he had a tee shirt that said " Israelis are evil prove me wrong." We just don't know why they were unfriendly do we? So you are right we need to ask more questions. To this point I am giving the Israelis the benefit of the doubt. Prove me wrong.
I agree. I mentioned to Shav that I thought the post was "pointless". However, I was rather alarmed at the sudden and rather vocal "racist" label that was thrown at someone who is probably just mentioning an ill thought out, flippant observation about his own experience. He MAY feel that all Israelis are bad but you can't, in my view, infer that from what he says.
We need to ask him more questions to find out.
Originally posted by ark13Who claimed you are being level headed. Oh that was you.
On the contrary, I think Wheely is correct. There's nothing wrong with stating what one has noticed, even if it does catagorize based on race. What is wrong is assuming that all people of this race must be the same way. Granted, the orginal poster may have done this subtly when he challenged someone from Israel to prove him wrong; this is starting to form a ...[text shortened]... read. Looks like I'm in for some harassment for being level-headed and agreeing with Wheely.
