People, the Middle East is more complex and multifaceted than BBC lets
you think, come judge for yourself.

Oh, I know you're absolutely right, Harel. I come from the American South,
and other Americans blur the racism line in their perception of reality
here. I am certain that at the root of it everyone will be nice and
welcoming. We're discussing the relevant, non-native socio-political
concerns. These shouldn't exist, anyone should be able to go to Haifa.
Unfortunately, real life doesn't recognize circumstance :)
