There was a time when Jews were hated by almost all the Germans .After over 70 years of the war In Germany there hatred is still prevailing , government requested Jews to refrain from wearing Kippah which is the traditional cap to avoid confrontation.
In Sri Lanka we have no Jews but we have Muslims wearing their Taqiyah which is s half round cap to identify themselves. Some people who have become quite racist due to the recent incidents make frowned faces when they they see a Musliman wearing Taqyah and utter Thamgiyah which vengeance.
I am not a racist but I hate three wheel drivers who are a menace to the motorists in Sri Lanka.
Quite a few three wheeler drivers wear taqiyah and it Doubles dislikeness
My driver who is quite disciplined always makes comments when three wheeler driver behaves erroneously on the road and comments. Thambiyek”

Shall we be ardent followers of our religion and think
TO ERR IS HUMAN ,FORGIVE IS DIVINE
