Israeli Ambassador to Australia apparently made a foolish mistake in his comment.
I hope my post can contribute to the change and improvement of Israeli' ways of views over racial issues by thinking about the other nations' point of views.
The points of his comments are:
Israel is different from Asian, basically European as Australians, they don't have yellow skins or slanted eyes like many Asian nations. etc.
This angered many Asian Christians who support Israel in many ways, because it sounded that Israel is ashamed about being in Asia, dislike Asians etc.
Already some Asians commented Israel must leave Asia, Israel must be removed out of Asia, Israel miss Europe very much where the Holocaust took place because they want another Holocaust. Israel must be cleansed out of Asia as the Ambassador proudly confessed and insisted.
Israel may have to move to Arctic Canada or to Australia as they dislike Asia.
Asians keen to observe how Israel government take actions against him.
He is already excusing that the press and media reported wrongfully reported what he never mentioned. He is very much similar to Iranian president saying " Holocaust is a myth" or similar to many racists of Germany saying " Holocaust never existed" He denies what he said in the same way as the Holocaust deniers deny it.
I hope Israel government instruct her officials to tame their tongues because Israel herself was the victim of such racism.
I expect this comment will remain in the hearts of many Asian Christians
for a long time unless Israel takes very, very stern actions against him.
