No, this is something that can't be pressed in a proper definition. But if
people think that sentences like: 

"Either way this ignores the fact that Israel has been murdering Muslims for
countless years and the state of Israel sits on occupied Palestinian land.
Debian having a conference in contestedland where military conflict and
oppressive acts are occurring is unacceptable."
(Just one example). 


are acceptable on our lists they are wrong. We can of course now start
constructing sentences like those for muslims, hindus or whatever ethnical
group. But I don't want to see someone going that route. 

So we either discuss in a constructive way or we should stop that discussion
now.
