An Israeli couple on their honeymoon in the town of Mazunte, Mexico, were expelled from a restaurant yesterday (Wednesday) after revealing their origin. According to the woman, the waitress began playing anti-Israel music, cursed in English, and refused to serve them food, claiming she “couldn't.” The chef threw the sushi they had ordered at them, and the staff demanded they leave. The couple, who have been traveling for about a month, said they had seen Palestinian flags in the town but had not experienced such hostility before. They confronted the waitress, who confirmed that her behavior was due to their origin and said she “doesn't want to serve murderers.” Two Mexicans and another Israeli tried to calm the atmosphere, but the couple left shocked and hurt.
