Beyond a willful ignorance of the long and deep history of the Jews in all of Jerusalem, how could the first African-American president of the United States advocate creating Jew-free zones, knowing first-hand about racism?

How can the US support the Arabs’ racist suggestion that would bar Jews from living in Jerusalem?
