What is the reason? Maybe you have a reason now because the war but before all this I have heard many offenses toward them and I am curious to know the reasons even if I am very far from being a jew.

Answer 1

Check out this online seminar on the subject of anti-Semitism:

Answer 2

When a pope exonerated the romans for the death of Jesus of Nazereth he put the blame on Jews. Xtians have been discriminating against jews ever since that day.

Strangely enough despite what you hear in the west the animosity between jews and arabs is a relatively recent phenominum that has been exacerbaed since the usrpation of arab land and establishment of the state of israel.

Answer 3

i'm an Atheist. i do no longer discriminate against Jews. Its a prevalent fact that Christians and Muslims discriminate against them. they do no longer trust their faith, that's reason sufficient for Christians and Muslims to hate all human beings...

Answer 4

I posted this on another question:

"Here's an example:

European Jews would see themselves ostracized from whatever society the were in. As a result, they huddled together. This made them look "sneaky."

Now, since they could work in trades that Christians couldn't (like money lending), they had unique opportunities for economic growth. Thus, they mode more money. This made them look "snooty" and "rich."

Once they acquired economic control due to their positions in finances, they could go on and assume the role of moneylender. Now, when hard times struck and families had to ask for money/had to pay back loans, guess who was villified? That's right... the money-lending Jew.

And that's all I can think of right now. "

Answer 5

you have to face the fact that anti-Semitism is one of those things that defy logic.

let me share this quote with you

Professor Michael Curtis of Rutgers University:

"Everybody has a people that they hate; a group you don't like, that are threatening you. But the uniqueness of anti-Semitism lies in the fact that no other people in the world have been charged simultaneously with alienation from society and with cosmopolitanism; with being capitalist exploiters and also revolutionary communists; with having a materialistic mentality or being a people of the book. We are accused of being both militant aggressors and cowardly pacifists; adherents to a superstitious religion and agents of modernism. We uphold a rigid law and are also morally decadent. We have a chosen people mentality and an inferior human nature; we are both arrogant and timid; individualist and communally adherent; we are guilty of both the crucifixion of Jesus to Christians and to others we are held to account for the invention of Christianity. Everything and its opposite becomes an explanation for anti-Semitism."

Anyone who discriminates anyone else for being different (sex, religion, gender, etc.) is an ignorant person, and there are a looot of those unfortunately.
