[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hmmmmm this is tricky. I'm Indian American and yes, that is a Hindu symbol that can be found all over India and has peaceful connotations there so they are not making that up. Obviously it's a hateful symbol in the US and Europe. So I can see why everyone is convinced that you are creating a problem that isn't there...But I agree that you have hostility with the neighbor, and the neighbor isn't Indian, and is probably trying to mess with you by drawing that symbol. He's using the prevalence of Indian people to try and get away with it. So IMO you are a little bit trapped. Don't focus so much on the symbol, but be very watchful of this neighbor. I can only see the hostility escalating. [/quote] I am also Indian-American and NOPE, nothing tricky about this situation. It was very clearly intentional but clearly these people don't like you (prob they are the racists, OP, honestly, you are in the Middle East, people don't like Jews). I would raise this to your employer and ask if you can move.[/quote]
