"P@ki" has a historical context to it, that disliking Americans doesn't. Thay are also of Middle eastern/Arabian descent. Which certainly is a race. I think xenophobic is the correct word (as another poster already mentioned), but it's not racism. We are generally of the same race.
xenophobia is racism. Racism is a catch all word. Saying that anti-Americanism isn't racism, is actually a racist statement in and of itself.

Would you say that Americans that hate Mexicans are racists? I would. Even though both America and Mexico are both majority white european countries.

If i said i hate Muslims they are all terrorists, that would be called racist. Hitler kiling jews was called racist, even though most of the jews he killed were white europeans too.

No it is not. It is a fear or hatred of strangers or anything/one foreign.

Did the poster say they disliked all Americans, or the few American HM's that have been in CBB? Because there definitely is a distinction.

Jews are a race of people, though.

discriminating against jews is racism yes, but jews are mostly white europeans but you just said discriminating against white europeans is not racism.... so now you've contradicted yourself.

Jews are not white Europeans, though. I'm really confused as to where you get some of your history from.

ummm, so what are they then? are there arab jews? yes, are there black jews yes, are most jews white europeans? yes. Just like Americans. But you say discriminating against jews is racist, but against Americans is not?

seems hypocritical to me.

Jews are an ethno-religious group, they may have moved into Europe, but they are not white Europeans.

So you're telling me that you can tell a jew from a gentile just by looking at them? That's racist.
