An interesting article from Haaretz on the racism within the Jewish community in Israel between European and Middle Eastern Jews.
The article pulls no punches and was triggered by a Middle Eastern (Mizrahi) member of parliament there changing his name so that he would not be confused as a non-Jew and suffer the discrimination that they suffer.
The comments are enlightening as well and worth a read:
