This is a story about a schoolgirl in NYC Brooklyn getting beat up and taunted by a gang of others, Arabs in particular.

Yes, my copout mentality.

Don't lecture me about individuality when you express a reflexive "oh, but everyone does it even Jews". And point me to Gaza and Jenin to show me the evils of the Jews.

Again, you use a phrase like "indefinite time period".

Get a grip. I'm not speaking in absolutes. You are.

And please tell me more about people like me....i'm eagerly awaiting that.....

Of course, individuals are individual; you're the one not accepting that and refusing to condemnt the actions of this arab girl and her gang while badmouthing and dismissing the entire incident...

I would condemn the Arab girl's actions, but her being an Arab is irrelevant. Lets face it, if this was a person of no particular background beating up another person of no particular background, this story would not have been posted on FR. It is solely because it was an Arab beating up a Jew that it is here.

Sure, I will tell you more about yourself. On the assumption that you perceive the main issue in the above post was that the girl is an Arab, then...

You and your ilk are the kind of person who can be mobilized against a race based upon what you selectively glean from external sources (media, etc.) based upon a pre-existing prejudice or what caters to your existing views. It is people like yourself that Hitler managed to mobilize against the Jews in the '30s. It is the same f*cking mentality that has wrought so much grief throughout the history of man.
