Is Gaza conflict now a religious war?

During this month's traditional Flag March on Jerusalem Day, which commemorates Israel’s capture of the city's historic eastern sector during the 1967 Arab-Israeli war, marchers could be heard shouting racist, anti-Arab and anti-Muslim slogans, according to reporting from Haaretz, the BBC, AFP and other sources.

One marcher reportedly shouted: "This is my country. I am the owner here. I'm the boss here, there is no Palestine.” Reporters also recorded such chants and slogans as "We will burn your villages" and "All Arabs can suck it."
