there are notable differences.. the similarities in characters could be attributed to "..these are Palestinians..."

but then again, im not fluent in hebrew... but, are you?

I think jsp has a subforum for this language. I made a post there to see if someone could confirm the translation. No replies yet. Let's hold our horses for now...

...fluent enough to recognize the exact same wording in order that does not appear in the troll translations .

Hmm might not be fake after all, though I can't find a decent source to verify it.
If it is true then it reminds us that racism and hate doesn't end at the American border.

Of course that can hardly be a representative sample of Israelis.
There are plenty who are as strongly opposed to the racism/hate in their country as those in ours are.

because you can interpret hebrew or because youre assuming that nouns verbs predicates etc are composed similarly in every langauge?

or none of the above, i suppose

All of the people who replied in the picture seem to have deleted their posts, though there's a second post from Eliya Eliza in there that was sort of difficult to dig out.

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=328154670554071 - there's the original post.

Here's the Google translation of one of the earliest posts on there, which has 202 likes, the most by far of any comments I've seen: Anna Kagna-kitty does not matter that Jews and Arabs or small children! : (

Here's what happens when people try to create racism against Israelis by linking to a few examples of racist Israelis without showing the counter-response: http://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=62561309&f=119

ETA: The newspaper posted this, which would explain why I can't find the original posts: Walla! New members, ceased to write racist comments and not to the point. Surf or surfing the web write racist comment post will be removed from the pole

Which, again, good on them. It's not the place for it. I'm sure that the translations are more or less accurate, but they're also very clearly cherry-picked racist comments.

Not an indicator of any group other than bigots in general...however it would be nice if those of us in society who see these type of people would shun them...( people like Widow for instance )

The longer we tolerate fearmongering, hatred, bias based on race, religion, social class, sexual orientation etc...

instead we turn our cheek the other way and tolerate it

It's not surprising that bitg_pg was so easily manipulated here, the zeitgeist crowd always is.

Incite racism against Israelis? my post say's nothing about Israelis....I'm disgusted by peoples blatant hatred and racism in the posts

Your post implies that all major responses on the tragedy were racist posts by Israelis. You got suckered into this without a second thought, you ought to just admit this, apologize to Israelis as a whole, and move on.
