Switzerland the home of the United Nations and supposedly human rights have been previously accused of racism in various occasions.

 

Starting earlier this year with the "Black Sheep" campaign against foreigners, specially from of African origins  living in Switzerland.

 

Now the government showing further aggressiveness and racist attitude towards foreigners and disabled with 2 large scale campaigns against invalidity insurance, with a slogan "Disabled Cost Us So Much, Stop It Now" and the other campaign showing a muslim woman dressed in black with missile looking minerats of mosques, with slogan  "Stop minerats. Vote yes to making minerats illegal" .

 

While Switzerland assumably is considered neutral and peaceful, the fact in real daily life and on the street level is totally different on all aspects of living.
