She's not Hispanic. Though it shouldn't detract from what she says at all.

The examples are comparable with regards to the concept of treating people unjustly.

Lebanese isn't a race and no you are incorrect having an interest in a speakers ethnicity doesn't make one a racist, on the contrary a racist is one who believes his race is superior over another. In Brigitte Gabriel's case knowing her life story and the part of they world she hails from helps place her comments in perspective.

Moreover, the push for "diversity" itself proves that people in fact absolutely do not want diversity. Despite the government and brainless liberals pushing and pushing for it, asians still cluster together with other asians, blacks still cluster together with other blacks, hispanics still cluster together with other hispanics, whites still cluster together with other whites, and so on and so forth for all ethnicities. No one really wants diversity, and the few that say they do are deluded, or uneducated, brainwashed by the liberal media, afraid of what others will say if they said what they really felt, and/or simply lying to themselves.
Not really like this to any major extent where I am from. Skin colour, religion and ethnicity are only some traits of a person. There is so much more .... Why would anyone limit themselves to only associated to people who fall under a few categories. If you are that kind of person you really don't know all the good stuff you are missing.

The tell that to ISIS comment is silly... So if someone is doing something stupid you would just follow suit?
