An Israeli tourist checking into a hotel in the Japanese city of Kyoto was forced to sign a form declaring his non-involvement in alleged war crimes committed by Israeli forces, Ynet reported on Saturday.
The tourist attempted to check in for a stay at the Wind Villa Hotel in Kyoto, but upon presenting his Israeli passport at the desk, he was told to declare his non-involvement in war crimes or face refusal of service.
The tourist reportedly served in the Israeli Navy as a combat medic.
The tourist told Ynet that "Among the sections in this document was that I did not rape, murder people who raised a white flag, or commit a war crime. This is absurd and ridiculous. I told him that we do not kill women and children, why would we do that?"

Normally, this is not the type of article I would post here, but I see this as nothing but a jumping off point for what is to come.

(15,008 posts)I don't know enough about the history and the details to really give an educated opinion. My kid has reconnected with their Jewish roots and been really useful and informing me of so much of the misinformation and also the fact that Israeli people really don't approve of what netanyahu is doing at all. That said, it's so disturbing to see the anti-semitism resurgence because of that man's inhumane actions.
