Why do prejudiced people spend so much time and hatred hating Israel?

Question

They could pick any country to hate, like countries that kill their citizens in Africa or some Asian countries that mistreat and torture their people or bossy established rich world powers like the U.S. or France or England. Or dictatorships like N. Korea or Saudi Arabia, or drug empires in S. America. But instead they chose to vent hatred on a tiny country just struggling to defend themselves.Is it just a prejudice against Jews and do they truly believe that a teeny tiny country would really want to fight against enemies on all sides. It makes no sense.

Answer 1

Oh the same ones that hate Israel, hate America too. Remember America is just the dog of the Zionist master... or something like that.

ROTFLMAO.

Don't try to understand these people, they are ignorant of how things work.

Erin: Stop drinking the Koolaid. There were tons of investigations of that incident but the NSA and others. It was all classified however, until January 2004. You can now see the majority of the investigation and the results. Which all conclude it was an accidental attack.

Is this that hard to believe? We have shot our own troops, attacked our own tanks, war is a crazy business and bad things happen.

Answer 2

Well first of all if it make you feel better we probably have way more countries that hate us than the ones that hate Israel. Anyway I guess you can say that the hatred for Israel probably began with its founding. They basically took a big chunk out of Palestine and said "This is ours now"(Don't think that I'm anti-Semitic I'm just saying what actually happened). There was of course a war. It was Egypt and a couple other countries in the Middle East. Israel took them all down(Although there is much debate about that since the biggest army, Egypt, didn't even fight. It went close to the Israeli army and then went back home without fighting. The Israelis then dropped napalm down on the army that was basically walking away for some reason killing massive amounts of people. Due to the high death toll it was considered an Israeli victory.). So basically the country was founded on war. Palestine however has never forgiven Israel for taking what it considers it's lands. Then of course you have terrorist groups like the PLO and Hamas that won't let anyone forget and forgive when it comes to Israel. I hope that answers your question.

The Jews were chosen to tell the world about the one God. This has been a blessing and a curse. A Jew said to God, "Is it true we are the Chosen People?" "Yes, my son." "Would you mind choosing someone else for a change?"

In very ancient times, the Jews believed in one God. This was when everybody else believed in worshipping statues of many gods. Consequently, other cultures have seen Jews as a "peculiar people," since they worshipped a god who could not be seen, was in their hearts, and who had no statues. The Romans tried but could not erase these ideas or convert the Jews, so they kicked them out of Palestine in 60C.E and replaced them with the Palestinians. At that time, Palestine was huge. The Israelis have taken a tiny bit back.

For a long time, since Abraham, Jews have been used as a "scapegoat," for people who refuse to acccept responsibility for their own problems. It is called anit-semitism if a Jew is hated just because he is a Jew. Semites were many different tribes that inhabited the Middle East, even before Abraham, but today, it just refers to the Jews in a derogatory manner.

Before Hitler, Jews had more freedom in Europe than any other country. In the 1930's, the Nazi Party was the smallest party in Germany. Hitler wanted his party to be the biggest, so he tapped this underlying prejudice and more people joined. Also, he read about what the Ottoman Turks did to the Armenians. Nobody came to their rescue, so he thought this method would be successful, and it was.

Prejudice comes from ignorant, immature and uneducated minds. When they blame their problems on somebody else, they say more about themselves than the people they hate.

The battle has been "all or nothing" for Hezbollah. Israel has given back a lot of land to the Palestinians. Lebanon and Israel both want to live in peace. Remember, Hezbollah fired about 500 missilew into Israel, with no provocation, and they have 7,000 more.

If Lebanon had a stronger government and army, they could get rid of Hezbollah. Unfortunately, they don't, and Syria and Iraq are supply munitions to Hezbollah.

You are correct. It is a tiny country. Why couldn't the Arab countries get together and jointly give some land to the Palestinians?

North Korea has a million man marching army and rockets that could, potentially, reach the US. The US is using kid gloves with these guys.

Jewish people do not believe they are any better than anybody else, but they do put a high price on family and education. Consequently, many succeed in their endeavors. At the same time, Jews are like all people. They have the same ailments, frustrations, problems and stresses as do all people. Just because they're Jewish,doesn't mean that their lives are easier than others. They work for everthing just like most of us.

A prejudiced person doesn't want to work to improve his life. He just wants to be lazy and blame his lack of accomplisment on somebody else. Perhaps he thinks that we won't notice his weaknesses.

Yes, "it makes no sense," but prejudice never does.

Answer 4

The oldest lie: People hate Israel because it is full of Jews.

People hate Israel because most of the residents moved there within the last 60 years, displacing hundreds of thousands of Arabs with violence. If you think Israel was "a land without people for a people without land" and Jews showed up and "made the desert bloom" you are a moron. We are talking about cities like Jeruselum which are key to Christianity, Islam, and Judaism. Do you think those cities were empty in 1948 when Israel was formed? Look at some pictures of Israel. Everything looks *ancient* (i.e. these are not new buildings, they were old ones that were stolen).

Israel continues to kill Palenstinian citizens in the name of "fighting terrorism" in violation of international law, and then they get the US to veto any UN Resolution condemning their war crimes, including but not limited to using Palestinians as human shields while they search homes and demolishing homes with people still inside.

The fact that Israel has a large stockpile of nuclear weapons betrays their claim to being the "victim" surrounded by enemies. Their army kills 3 Palestinian citizens on average for every Israeli killed in a "terrorist attack" so who is the real terrorist at that point?

You have probably been spoonfed lies your entire life and if you actually read a real history book you would see most of the things you have been told about Israel's peaceful nature are b.s.

You can't steal a country without using force and displacing people with violence. The Arabs in the area couldn't help but notice, and so they hate Israel.

P.S. The bombing of the U.S.S. Liberty that some1 talked about earlier by Israel was a cover-up, and a poor one at that. It was not accidental and that is part of why it was top secret until 2004.

Answer 5

I'm not much for Israel, and most people never use this to illustrate why they don't like Israel, but were you aware that in 1972 Israel bombed a virtually unarmed US communications vessel called the USS Liberty? Not just accidentally dropped a bomb on it, but repeatedly did so. And then attempted to come aboard that ship? Granted the US never opened an investigation into the incident, and Israel never had to explain itself, but don't you wonder what an investigation would have found?
Now, you did name just about every other country in the world (by including a lot of continents in your list), but why not a country that claims they are a people with no land in a land with no people? That says to me that Israelis don't consider Palestinians to be people.
I blame Europe for this whole mess anyway.

Answer 6

I am from the USA and I do not consider it bossy. As a matter of fact we would just as soon stay out of situations as go into them. As for the hatred of Israel, people need someone to vent their frustrations on and I don't know why they always choose the Israelis. Yes it is prejudice against the Jewish people.

Answer 7

The actions of it's government and their administrations that can influence, positively or negatively the world's view.

Israel plays the victim, yet they treat the Palenstine people like dirt. Let me ask you - are you aware who occupied that land prior to WW11? Arabs

if your an Arab how would you feel about Israel and it's treatment of Arabs? Are you OK with Arabs being treated as second class citizens by Israel ? Doesn't that count as a form of prejudice?

Answer 8

Great question, I think that they have a lot of time on their hands, so lots of hatred to spew out into the world.

Answer 9

The Jews are the mortal enemy of all mankind. They deserve more than just our hatred. They deserve extermination!

Answer 10

Hatred does not require reason. Be the change. Peace
