15. Absolutely not
Arabs may be the subject of discrimination in many parts of the world, but many groups have, at one time or another, been the subject of discrimination.

I know Jews who were alive in Germany in the 1930s. To compare their lot with that of Arabs today is inappropriate. There is just no comparison on any level.

This isn't to say that Arabs are not being discriminated against - indeed I was just in a flame war in LBN after I attacked France's treatment of its Arab Muslim population - but the levels of discrimination are a joke compared to the deliberate extermination of six million people.
