Recently we have had something occur in New Zealand which I am disgusted about.

Basically these 2 cafe owners banned Israelis from their cafe, saying that it was their personal protest against Israel's actions in Gaza.
This really upset me, as this is major discrimination. Take this line of thought and we would be banning every single nationality for their actions in some event in some point in history. You are entitled to your own opinion but don't take it against the people from that country. They are innocent. It is the government that you should be protesting against, and this kind of protest does nothing except antagonise tourists and tourism in an already suffering industry and show your ignorance.
Ok, rant over!
