Osweld: I still think that you and che are being oversensetive on this issue, especially given the fact that he has been honored by the American Jewish Committee.

Possibly. At first I thought Watto was just a general Eastern Mediterranian stereotype. Could be Greek, Turkish, Arabic, Jewish, Italian. With the changes to him in the second movie, though, there is no doubt.
Oswald, that is freakish.

Arabs are semites. But do they have different shaped noses?

They are not semites? Or the noses are different...or they are same? Or it's not a great thread?

See, that's why I thought it was silly before, but seeing those two pictures together... that's more than a little unsettling, you must admit.
I still think the Trade Federation = Asians thing is crap. One of them might sound like the lowest-quality Asian stereotyped accent, but the other one just sounds like he has a mouth full of cotton balls.
Have you checked your PMs, DD?

Take Israelis and Arabs take off any head coverings. Drop them in a bag. Shake it up. Empty bag. How do you tell them apart?

Umm...the Jews will kick the Arabs' asses!
Anyhow, do you think that Watto is anti-Jew, anti-Arab, or anti-both? I guess there is a negative stereotype of merchants from the Levant wether Jew or Arab.

Besides, there have been accusations of Rascism in Star Wars since day one.
From Chasing Amy:
===============
HOLDEN (calling out): Bulls--t! Lando Calrissian was a black man, and he got to fly the Millennium Falcon!
(Hooper whips his head around, looking for the source of the comment)
HOOPER: Who said that?!?
HOLDEN (standing): I did! Lando Calrissian is a positive black role model in the realm of Science Fiction/Fantasy.
HOOPER: F--k Lando Calrissian! Uncle Tom n----r! Always some white boy gotta invoke the holy trilogy! Bust this - those movies are about how the white man keeps the brother man down - even in a galaxy far, far away. Check this **** . You got cracker farm-boy Luke Skywalker, Nazi poster boy - blond hair, blue eyes. And then you've got Darth Vader: the blackest brother in the galaxy. Nubian God.
BANKY: What's a Nubian?
HOOPER: Shut the f--k up! Now Vader, he's a spiritual brother, with the force and all that s--t. Then this cracker Skywalker gets his hands on a light-saber, and the boy decides he's gonna run the f--king universe - gets a whole Klan of whites together, and they're gonna bust up Vader's 'hood- the Death Star. Now what the f--k do you call that!
BANKY: Intergalactic Civil War!
HOOPER: Gentrification. They're gonna drive our the black element, to make the galaxy quote, unquote "safe" for white folks.
HOLDEN: But Vader turns, out to be Luke's father. And in Jedi, they become friends.
HOOPER: Don't make me bust a cap in your ass, yo! Jedi's the most insulting installment, because Vader's beautiful, black visage is sullied when he pulls off his mask to reveal a feeble, crusty white man! They're trying to tell us that deep inside, we all want to be white!

Disturbing, but I think the issue is over-exaggerated.
