Israeli teenagers: Racist and proud of it
Ethnic hatred has become a basic element in the everyday life of Israeli youth, a forthcoming book finds.
“For me, personally, Arabs are something I can’t look at and can’t
stand,” a 10th-grade girl from a high school in the central part of the
country says in abominable Hebrew. “I am tremendously racist. I come
from a racist home. If I get the chance in the army to shoot one of
them, I won’t think twice. I’m ready to kill someone with my hands, and
it’s an Arab. In my education I learned that ... their education is to
be terrorists, and there is no belief in them. I live in an area of
Arabs, and every day I see these Ishmaelites, who pass by the [bus]
station and whistle. I wish them death.”
