Christian Horner went on the offensive in Monza: “There’s nothing that concerns us. We discovered a few rubber noses on other cars and are now waiting for them to disappear.”

David Baddiel's book Jews Don't Count makes some excellent points. One is that many people - including Jews - do not consider Jews as a race but rather as a cultural identity. On the flip side, racists very much see it as a race. The essence of his argument therein is that do you think that the Nazis would have checked whether you believe or not before putting you on a train?

It's basically this IMO
