Criticism of Israel is not criticism of jews, like all religions there are good and bad.
Their treatment of these Africans is wrong, but not surprising.
Indeed it isn't. The Israeli's policy of land 'acquisition and management' is pretty appalling, especially for a country with such a short history ... especially of a people who were dependent upon the benefices and goodwill of others and show scant regard for other people's rights now.
Whilst no worse than their immediate neighbours they are certainly no better.
Some people , for some reason, would exonerate them from blame for anything or get plain snarky and go into a snit.
