Countries (in light green) that reject passports from Israel.
Countries (in dark green) that reject not only Israeli passports but also any passport which contain Israeli stamps or visas.

Islamic countries can ban whoever they want to.

That's just normal, and most people probably don't even notice.

I knew some countries banned Israeli's but i thought it was limited to Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Kuwait and Iran but seeing Malaysia, Algeria, Oman and UAE on that list really shocked me, especially Malaysia.

I have noticed from some on the left, an element of anti-semitism which confuses me because when did that flip?? But anyway, I doubt you'll get too much sympathy for Israel from those on the left. They generally view Israel as something to cheer against and/or openly oppose. Some make the distinction it's not the Jews but the country but some don't even bother.

Um, probably because most of us don't live in those countries...their values are not our values...their governing documents are not our Constitution...their history is not our history.

Off the top of my head. I'm sure there are many more reasons.

Only muslims are allowed to discriminate and deny women their rights and kill gays, and deny refugees, and such. You should know that by now. The US is supposed to "respect their values" and bend over and take whatever the demand. Hopefully those days are over and our military hasn't wasted their time practicing all these years for the big game.

Weird statement.

The situation is more like living in one of the countries that has an "Israeli ban" and "complaining" about it.

It's probably just that no one you encounter is "complaining".
However, your ignorance is only your reality, not everyone else's.

Muslims get a huge pass on most things. Liberals love them (until they go hiking in Iraq) and shun Israel too.

So prove us wrong. Prove all of these people are complaining about it in these countries. I'll wait for your sources. You claim he's ignorant so you must have loads and loads of examples at the ready, right?
