Hey neophyte -
Why don't you get in touch when people start accusing Jews nationwide of being arsonists because of this photo.
Your analogy falls apart when you actually examine everyday practices. People DO call Muslims in the U.S. terrorists based, in part, on distortions in media portrayals of Muslims. People DO call Black Americans criminals based, in part, on disproportionate representation of Black people as criminals in news coverage.
Perhaps the media is suppressing all the reports of anti-Semitic attacks fueled by these incendiary images. (See what I did there?)
