You have not said whether you think it is racist. Kind of hypocritical don't you think given your eagerness to see racism in every criticism of Islam?

Short answer then, I don't consider "arabia for arabs" as "blatant racism". Of course it could be racist depending on the context in which it is used. But the context Aussie used is clearly that of the Israeli annexation and forceful eviction of the inhabitants. Objecting to that is not racist by any stretch.

I'll take your refusal to answer where Aussie said "ethnic cleansing is the solution" - as yet another case of you making crap up.

He did his level best to drag me into the 'holocaust' analogy. "Train rides," etc. I think he is angry with me because I did not rise to his dumb and obvious bait and provocation to see if he could label me as anti-semitic. I like it when he thinks everyone else is stupid and only he sees the light.

He could never answer your question Gandalf, because his premise

is

based on a lie.

Who'da thunk that, wot?

a quarter of Israelis do speak Arabic.

FD do you think it was racist to object to Israelis ethnically cleansing 100s of thousands of Palestinians from their land and unilaterally declaring the vacated land as their state?

How can it be racists if Arabs are not a race, as you pointed out, but a linguistic group? You can't ethnically cleanse a language.

But seriously, the Arabs want the Jews out, they are just not strong enough to achieve their goal. The Jews want the Arabs are and they are strong enough.

The both want the same kind of thing, the Jews can do it the Arabs can't.

The West Bank Arabs should disperse in the neighbouring Arab countries and do business with Israel. The Germans evacuated the baltic states, Silesia, Ukrane, Belorus, the Arabs were cleared out of Spain, the Armenians from Turkey, the Jews from much of Europe. The Arabs shoulkd let go of the Werst Bank - they have all the rest of North Africa, the Middle east all the way to the persian border.

The West Bank is an area that is HALF of Sydney. West Bank = 5,655 km2. Sydney = 12,367.7 km2.

Total Arab lands = 13,333,296 km2.

Arabs, get real. (Zif)

Let me guess, the snake represents the Jews? Nice one Aussie. Gandalf can tell you are not racist.

Along racial lines. Not racist at all eh?

You just described ethnic cleansing for us. Does it not count when Jews are the victims?

You came up with the Jew as snake analogy all by yourself Aussie.

An Arab is, so far as I am concerned, a bloke who looks like most of the blokes is this. Them's are Arabs. Arabia is for them.

And long may they fight over it. Just keep us out of it, please.

I guess you missed that too.

That still doesn't explain where Aussie said that ethnic cleansing is the solution.

But its good to see you pouncing on all the "blatant racism" that goes on here FD - or at least the anti-semitic kind. Though its not quite as juicy as stuff like this, but I'm sure that was an honest oversight on your part - just like how you coincidentally miss all the other equally "blatantly racist" attacks against muslims that goes on in the forums you frequent the most.
