These people are rabid, we vaguely knew a young man from Pakistan, he was a student; got along with Americans okay, in every way, seemed normal.
Mention Israel; and SHTF; look out, they brainwash the masses to hate Israel and Jews.
And that’s Pakistan and that’s pretty far from Israel, so I knew it was probably all down to what they are told.
Not all that far and remember:
The “religious” instruction is guided by SA , in Arabic and extends to the entire Ummah
I knew a professor from Afghanistan who was the same way. The mere mention of Israel would trigger this seething rant and rage from him. It was like pushing the detonator on a bomb.
