When it comes to non-racial dicrimination - I think that when it comes to looking at foreign countries a lot of people tend to gloss over or flat out miss the similarities in their own country/culture. I think it`s because from the outside, the reasons (however shallow they may be) for the discrimination aren`t clear... But when it`s your own group you just take it as a given and even if you don`t agree - you can at least tell why. To another culture, their reasons are just as clear.

Everyone discriminates against someone. No matter how much we try to eliminate it and how similar people may be there will always be some sort of discrimination. Despite looking the same (racially) and living in the same area, raised in the same sort of environment, etc... There were plenty of examples of discrimination all through my years of schooling. There were "hicks", "rednecks", "preps", "geeks", and all varieties of the similar which could set someone up for complete isolation and discrimination.
