If Palestinians called people "jungle bunnies" would any "progressives" speak out?

Last Wednesday, during the clashes in Jerusalem's Old City as police protected Jews from being attacked by crazed Muslims who were incensed at the very thought of Jews walking freely around the holy city, one Muslim woman attacked an Israeli police officer who happens to be a black woman.



The caption for this video on the PalInfo Facebook page was "In Jerusalem [a woman] hits and pulls the hair of an African Zionist soldier who came from the jungles of Africa to kill and desecrate our holy places."

PalInfo is a popular media website that has been around for years and is pro-Hamas.

Naturally, no one seems too concerned at the explicit racism of Arab media. Because Western "progressives" - who seize on any example of Israeli racism they can find, real or imagined -  think that Arabs can't be expected to act any better. They are only Arabs, after all.

Which means that we have identified two groups of racists here.
