Jewish lady named Mrs. Rosenberg many years ago was stranded late one night at a fashionable resort - one that did not admit Jews. The desk clerk looked down at his book and said, "Sorry, no room. The hotel is full."
The Jewish lady said, "But your sign says that you have vacancies."
The desk clerk stammered and then said curtly, "You know that we do not admit Jews. Now if you will try the other side of town..."
Mrs. Rosenberg stiffened noticeable and said, "I'll have you know I converted to your religion."
The desk clerk said, "Oh, yeah, let me give you a little test. How was Jesus born?"
Mrs. Rosenberg replied, "He was born to a virgin named Mary in a little town called Bethlehem."
"Very good," replied the hotel clerk. "Tell me more."
Mrs. Rosenberg replied, "He was born in a manger."
"That's right," said the hotel clerk. "And why was he born in a manger?"
Mrs. Rosenberg said loudly, "Because a jerk like you in the hotel wouldn't give a Jewish lady a room for the night!"

Sure she was right! Back in the 1940's Groucho Marx was not allowed to join a country club because he was Jewish. He said to the clerk "My daughter is only half Jewish. Can she go in the pool up to her waist?"

We are not told in which country/state this incident took place. Notwithstanding, I agree with the Jew lady to tell off the desk clerk. Dont believe in discrimination due to religion or race or color. I believe one can only discriminate between "good" and "bad". I am not a Jew, but there's nothing wrong being a Jew. Jew is ethnicity just like English, Dutch, French etc. Yes, it is right to tell the desk clerk off.

Haha - very funny
Though now the boots on the other foot - the Israelis arent allowing Palestinian refugees they expelled back into their land and are starving the men, women and children of Gaza
and if some right-wing zionists had thier way there wouldnt be any Muslims in the US nor would they be allowed in

Truth is relative, so it is not for me to say what is right or wrong.
