You must be Jewish !

B"H

Tourists from all over the world come to Israel which is good for our economy and nice. But, as we are all humans, no one is perfect. Not every Israeli and not every tourist.
Many tourists come here with their own package full of problems and even prejudices against Jews. The moment one Israeli doesn't behave in a nice patient expected way, lots of tourists remind all of us that we are Jewish.

In an Arab shop I once heard from a Gentile tourist that all the Jews cheated him with the prices. The Arab started gossiping his political ideology, laughed and cheated the tourist the same way.

Other tourists tell Israelis straight away that because they are unfriendly, they must be Jewish. It is our fault that we increase anti - Semitism in this world.

My question is:
Would anyone say this to a Catholic or Protestant ?
