Why are jews hated all thrue history?
353425
They're a small minority, and a stubborn minority, and a minority who's religious rules tended to make them stand out.  Plus they managed, despite massive oppression, to survive thousands of years.  And words can't do their plight justice.

There most certainly are people who believe not only that the Holocaust never happened, but that all of the pictures, etc were faked. There's an entire generation of young adults in Germany who were taught absolutely nothing about the Holocaust & it was only after the Fall of the Berlin Wall that they began to realize they'd had a "glossed over" version of history. I don't care how much you dislike a subject in history, it happened & can't be changed & SHOULDN'T be re-written to make it palatable or p.c. If you don't learn from history, you are doomed to repeat the same mistakes.

Although anti-Semitism had existed since the establishment of Christianity Jews were only one of Hitler's target groups for elimination. In his quest to purify and strengthen the German race Hitler ordered the killings of Jews, Blacks, Homosexuals, Gypsies, Handicapped persons, the mentally ill hospitals, the elderly, the homeless, Slavs, and even World War One Veterans who had lost limbs or had otherwise become dependent. The reason Jews seemed to have been singled out in the Holocaust is because Hitler used them as a scapegoat for the problems following WW1. Hitler gave the downtrodden German people a face to put the blame of their dire situation. He accused the Jews, because they were different, of bringing down Germany from the inside. You would have to admit that Hitler's greatest achievement was making a whole country believe that less than 1% of their population, the Jews, were to blame for WW1 and it's consequences. With everyone's attention and anger directed at the Jews Hitler was free to eliminate other "unacceptable" people, many his own countrymen, without opposition or even notice. The reason that it's usually a Jewish person who speaks at assemblies is because they made up the largest portion of the Holocaust therefore others didn't survive or have likely passed on.

it really is a very paradoxical question, but it happens when you're growing up in a society that is full of hate towards one race. i've seen jewish people (jewish by birth that is) hate the jewish people, even becoming neo-nazis in their hate.\n\nif you watch the movie "the believer," you'll get an amazing and vivid example just how deep hatred can run.

Hitler did not all of a sudden say, 'Hey, lets band everyone together by hating Jews.' The hatred of Jews in Europe goes all the way back to the time it became Christian. Passages in the Christian's New Testament paint "The Jews" as being the children of the devil, hypocritical, and interested only in money rather than in Gd. \n\nWho wrote the following???\n\n"""But since I learned that those miserable and accursed people do not cease to lure to themselves even us, that is, the Christians, I have published this little book, so that I might be found among those who opposed such poisonous activities of the Jews and who warned the Christians to be on their guard against them....Now, in order to strengthen our faith, we want to deal with a few crass follies of the Jews in their belief and their exegesis of the Scriptures, since they so maliciously revile our faith. If this should move any Jew to reform and repent, so much the better. We are now not talking with the Jews but about the Jews and their dealings, so that our Germans, too, might be informed....Our Lord also calls them a "brood of vipers"; furthermore, in John' 3:39 he states: "If you were Abraham's children would do what Abraham did.... You are of your father the devil." It was intolerable to them to hear that they were not Abraham's but the devil's children, nor can they bear to hear this today.... For they are a heavy burden, a plague, a pestilence, a sheer misfortune for our country. Proof for this is found in the fact that they have often been expelled forcibly from a country, far from being held captive in it....Therefore be on your guard against the Jews, knowing that wherever they have their synagogues, nothing is found but a den of devils in which sheer self-glory, conceit, lies, blasphemy, and defaming of God and men are practiced most maliciously and veheming his eyes on them.......but then eject them forever from this country. For, as we have heard, God's anger with them is so intense that gentle mercy will only tend to make them worse and worse, while sharp mercy will reform them but little. Therefore, in any case, away with them!"""\n\nIt was Martin Luther, one of the founders of the Protestant movement in Christianity!

The Germans hated the Jews and used every political forum to show themselves for the jealous, poor, angry fools they were because Jews are smarter than them, and knew how to make money, when they couldn't. It's a shame Im 1/2 German, yet I can tell the truth, where a lot of Germans wont.

As a Jew, there is nothing wrong with us, no matter what any Anti-Semite might say. The reality is that we have been persecuted as a people for hundreds and thousands of years, and that probably will not change anytime soon. But no matter what lame reason people may give to hate us, we will always be here.

I would be happy to help you understand, if that was your goal.  It's obviously not you hate-filled little thug.  You carefully craft your question with just the right words to make Jews look bad and yourself look good.\n\nWell, guess what you stupid Jew hating creep...you only made yourself look ignorant.  People see right through your bigoted crap.\n\nNow go play in the freeway or something.

Why do all people hate Germany???

Read the Old Testament.  It will give you a very good account as to why these two nations hate each other.  Exodus and Numbers are particularly good books to read.\n\nThe Arabs believe their land was stolen by the people of Moses, and the Israel Nation belives God gave them that land for their inheritance.

the Russian and Gypsy people of that era do not hold all of us to ransom for what a demented german tried to achieve. Why in God's name are we still paying for that mistake in history but are asked to overlook everything the Jewish Lobby and Israel do?

Mishk, your question is a good one.  Anti-semitism is as old as the Bible when Esau hated Jacob.  Esau and Jacob are sons of Isaac who was a son of Abraham.  Roman Empire comes from Esau and Jews come from Jacob.  \n\nUnlike the bad rap that Islam is getting today, hatred toward Jews is baseless.  People are mistrusting of Islam today only because of the constant terrorism that occurs, especially 9/11 here in America, whereas through the generations Jews have been scapegoated for no social or political reason other than being successful and contributing enormously to their societies.  Although Hitler did go after other minority groups (homosexuals, disabled, etc.), his Final Solution was disproportionately aimed at eradicating the Jewish Nation.  He was not the first nor will he be the last.  We just celebrated Purim which commemorates G-d's saving us from an evil person named Haman who lived (I forget what year) in the BC era. And today certain Arab groups in Israel are intent on driving the Jews into the Sea.  So as you see Anti-semitism does rear it's ugly head generation after generation.  Thank G-d our faith in G-d is strong and when we stay close to G-d and His Torah we continue to survive as a nation.  \n\nCheck out these sites to give you more insight into this and Judaism in general.  http://www.aish.com/ and http://www.chabad.org/\n\nFeel free to e-mail me if you wish to discuss this further.  I am a religious Jew and have grappled with the same issue as you.\n  \nYour question is excellent!\n\nBest of Luck.

Because the orgin of Jewish hatered stems from the cruxcifixion of Jesus Christ.  In the Bible, the Book of Matthew, Jesus told us that the world would hate us because we are like him. He wasn't talking about being Jewish but being Christian.  However, the Jewish people in the Bible are the ones who hung Jesus to the cross. Some of the hatered comes from the Jewish belief that Jesus was just a man and not the son of God.  Others come from the secret control of entites in the Amercian and global business world.  It is never right to hate, but it happens.\n\n\nHope this helps.

You said you are looking for legitimate (please note the spelling) answers for why Jews are hated.  The answer is:  there are none.  Jews have always been persecuted and killed.  As a result, we have grown into a very strong people.  As strong people, education is very important, so many Jews are well-educated, and with that often comes success.  Because of this, many people are envious and think that somehow Jews have some silly natural intelligence or ability to succeed, and we don't.  We struggle to survive, and the result is what many do not understand.\n\nAlso, many Christians feel threatened by Jews.  We worship God and only God.  Thus, many Christians feel uncomfortable worshipping Jesus and want to convert Jews in order to validate their (the Christians') own feelings about whom they're worshipping.  When Jews do not willingly convert, it is highly threatening to many Christians.
