Not So Racist

I don't mean to be pedantic about this, but racism is about viceral reactions to a person's race. So I find it a little difficult to understand how Israelis can be racist when they're constantly granting massive rights and accolades to Arab groups and individuals. Now, you might point out that those groups or individuals are Arabs who have helped the State of Israel - but the entire point is that Israel is a pluralistic country in which multiple races co-exist and contribute. You didn't see the Confederacy, let alone Nazi Germany, handing out accolades to black soldiers.
