When the Roman historian Tacitus pointed out 19 centuries ago that the Jews are unique among the races of man in their intense hatred and contempt for all races but their own, he was only repeating what many other scholars had discovered before him. For the next 1,900 years other investigators came to similar conclusions, either from a study of the Jews' religious writings or from a study of the Jews' behavior toward non-Jews.
Notable among these was the Great Reformer, Martin Luther, who in 1543 wrote in Von den JØden und Ihren LØgen :
Does not their Talmud say, and do not their rabbis write, that it is no sin to kill if a Jew kills a heathen, but it is a sin if he kills a brother in Israel? It is no sin if he does not keep his oath to a heathen. Therefore, to steal and rob, as they do with their usury, from a heathen is a divine service. For they hold that they cannot be too hard on us nor sin against us, because they are of the noble blood and circumcised saints; we, however, are cursed goyim. And they are the masters of the world, and we are their servants, yea, their cattle....
Should someone think that I am saying too much, I am not saying too much, but much too little. For I see in their writings how they curse us goyim and wish us all evil in their schools and their prayers.
The Jews responded to Luther like they responded to all the others. They put him down as just another "hater," blinded by religious bigotry. And today that's still the Jews' standard answer to everyone who says or writes anything about them except the most fawning praise.

Well I must say that since you reside in the US - you must understand that the rest of the world has not even begun to touch on the race issue (maybe we are farther ahead in the game than we think -still gotta long way to go) nonetheless, what was said is wrong we are people but on the other hand its really not worth killing over. Some people will always say awful things - I do not understand why the Americans are knocked so bad about our race relations in this Country and then all around us is atrocities commited for that reason

First, these quotes are of specific people, not of entire populaces. So your claim rings hollow...
After all, if I dragged up quotes from Al-Queda, or Terrorist organizations (such as the ruling Hamas) in Palestine, could I use this against Palestine?
Second, your first quote a attributed to President Carter, but has no sources. Looking it up, I see the same basic article copied and pasted into many webpages, all of which appear to be heavily biased. I'm not really buying it...
As for your second quote, it to is found on many an Anti-Semetic site and appears to be appealing to the "Ultra-Orthodox Fringe", according to one Editorial in the New York Times:
http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9C06E3DA173DF93AA35750C0A962958260
So I'm not likely to paint Zionists with his quote if they complain about him this vigorously.
I don't even need to look at the third quote because, while it might appear harsh it is technically true. The Palestinian people were on land that technically wasn't theirs, so there was no official "Palestinian people". Their eventual loss of land in the late 1940's is the result of Britian, not Isreal. That's where their beef lies...

The comments of a select few do not speak for the whole of jewish society. Just as the people depicted in your quotes were apparently bigots, so are you for writing this question up. Don't perpetuate the crime further just out of your own hatred and misunderstanding.
Read up on the military history of Israel. If you still do not understand why Israelis truly are afraid of their arabian neighbors then think about how things stand in America today. Think about how many people are afraid to fly after 9/11. Think about the religious preference of those fine individuals who wanted to blow several planes out of the sky yesterday.
In all honesty, just because you put something in quotation marks, it does not necessarily make it true. I do not believe that the people that you mention actually made those remarks, either that or you are putting them out of context.
Have you ever considered joining the Neo-Nazi's? They have many positions available for you. But first do not forget to give your muslim friends a hug. Check first for any bombs strapped to their chest; better safe than sorry!

1. Begin never said that...it is a forgery found on anti-semitic websites.
2. Rabbi Perin is, admittedly, an extremist. But listen to the words of people like Nasrallah. He's willing to sacrifice every arab in the world if it will rid the world of jews. Now, that about 450 million to kill 15 million. OK, not a million to one, but obviously they Jews are worth more if they're willing to spend so much to get rid of them
3. Golda Meir's comments are historical facts. Have a problem with the truth.

This definition seems to contradict your definition my Muslim friend and I use that term loosely.. By the definition in Wikipedia it is just the belief that the Jews should be in their own country and run it themselves..
Zionism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Zionism is a political movement and ideology that supports a homeland for the Jewish people in the Land of Israel, where the Jewish nation originated over 3,200 years ago and where Jewish kingdoms and self-governing states have existed up to the ...

You quoted Golda Meir, here is what else she had to say "There is no such thing as a Palestinian Arab nation. Palestine is a name the Romans gave to Eretz Yisrael with the express purpose of infuriating the Jews. Why should we use the spiteful name meant to humiliate us? The British chose to call the land they mandated Palestine, and the Arabs picked it up as their nation's supposed ancient name, though they couldn't even pronounce it correctly and turned it into Falastin a fictional entity." ---- Golda Meir
Palestine has never existed as an autonomous entity. There is no language known as Palestinian. There is no distinct Palestinian culture. There has never been a land known as Palestine governed by Palestinians. Palestinians are Arabs, indistinguishable from Jordanians (another recent invention), Syrians, Lebanese, Iraqis, etc.
The word 'palestine' itself derives from "Peleshet" (stranger in Hebrew), a name that appears frequently in the Bible and has come into English as "Philistine". The name began to be used in the Thirteenth Century BC, for a wave of migrant "Sea Peoples" who came from the area of the Aegean Sea and the Greek Islands and settled on the southern coast of the land of Canaan. There they established five independent city-states (including Gaza) on a narrow strip of land known as Philistia. The Greeks and Romans called it "Palastina". The Philistines were not Arabs, they were not Semites. They had no connection, ethnic, linguistic or historical with Arabia or Arabs. The name "Falastin" that Arabs today use for "Palestine" is not an Arabic name. It is the Arab pronunciation of the Greco-Roman "Palastina". The Philistines were Greek not Arab! In the First Century CE, the Romans crushed the independent kingdom of Judea. After the failed rebellion of Bar Kokhba in the Second Century CE, the Roman Emperor Hadrian determined to wipe out the Jewish identity of Israel-Judah-Judea. Therefore, he took the name Palastina, from Philistia and imposed it on all the Land of Israel. At the same time, he changed the name of Jerusalem to Aelia Capitolina.
After the fall of the Roman Empire and during the time of the Crusades the Jews were driven from Israel and scattered to all the corners of the earth. The Arabs who occupied the Land never did much with it. They did take over the Temple Mount and place mosques there. Jews have periodically returned to Israel, but it wasn't intil after WWII that Jews began to make Aliyah back to their home land in mass and turn a desert into a paradise, to turn swamp land into useable farm land.
Many people claim that there has always been a 'palestine', but as former PLO Terrorist Walid Shoebat said, “Why is it that on June 4th 1967 I was a Jordanian and overnight I became a Palestinian?”
What many people don't know is that the late Yassir Arafat was an Egyptian! He tried to create a 'palestine' in Jordan, but chased out of the country and narrowly escaped wearing a womans dress!
Here is something that shows how deceitful those calling themselves 'palestinians' can be, it's a video called 'Pallywood' http://www.seconddraft.org/movies.php

There are innumerable inhumane and racist people and comments used to "support" almost any argument or position. This doesn't mean that the position itself is inherantly inhumane, racist, or wrong.
That said the above quotes are appauling. I think both sides of the conflict have some valid points and have taken ridiculous stances and actions as well.
While pacifism can't solve all problems, hate certainly is not helping the situation.

I can't wait to see the posts of people who will try to refute or deny this... everyone is in a state of denial about the racist nature of Israel. If they're so great, why do they have different laws for jews and non-jews? Why are the palestinians not allowed to vote in the occupied territories, but the jews are?
Here's a quote since our asker couldn't fit them all..., I love this guy's choice of words, final solution..
"I do not see partition as the final solution of the Palestine question ... after the formation of a large army in the wake of the establishment of the [Jewish] state, we shall abolish partition and expand to the whole of Palestine"- David Ben-Gurion, first Prime Minister of Israel
And if you don't believe that there was ever a palestinian people, read about what happened at Deir Yassin.

What of the racist statements and adopted nazi propaganda used by the arabs ? The Saudi government claims that Israelis eat palestinian babies and bake their blood into bread - a lie which I'm sure you believe.
You are misinformed and you appear to be happy to spread those lies to others. The statements you quote are not true, they were never said by the people you claim said them.
Only one part is a fact - that there is no Palestine and no palestinian people. It is an invention of the ancient Romans.
Please, I will pray to God for your salvation. Consider your behavior again.

"any variety of racism or colonial Zionism or any variety of oppression." lovable the way you link the three. i'm no longer particular what you mean with the aid of 'colonial Zionism', yet Zionism itself isn't some thing extra that help for the persevered existence of the present Jewish State in Israel. We Jews have one state - count number it, and for some human beings, it is one too many. pondering the way the international has dealt with us, that makes anti-Zionism an same as anti-Semitism (and please do not argue with the dictionary definition of the note.) note that Zionism absolutely does no longer mean settlement with each and every of the rules of Israel's authorities.
