`Anti-`Alawite bigotry

I have written this before: I am not surprised to read and hear anti-`Alawite bigotry from Hariri/Saudi media.  Those are Wahhabi outlets, in the final analysis.  But the other day I heard the correspondent of BBC News in Lebanon gives a platform to a guy (he was introduced as Syrian refugee but his accent seemed Lebanese, although it is possible he was Abraham Foxman) who vomited anti-`Alawite bigotry.  It is the season.  If a Palestinian ever expresses his/her views against Israel in a way that referred to his/her enemies as "Jews", he is instantly rebuked in the media and calls for his/her arrest are heard (although Israel presents itself to the world as the state of all Jews for propaganda purposes).   But then again: why is that surprising?  The Saudi/Hariri tools in the Syrian opposition are fanatical extremists.
