I have always wonderd this. It seems that Jewish have just sat back and minded their own business but always were targeted by other Religions. Why do you suppose that is?

jealousy. no i really don't know but it's sad. i am sure you are going to get a lot of hateful answers to this question. and none of them will be true, because the jews didn't deserve any of the things that were done to them

Yeah- it always amazes me. There are 13 million jews in the world. it's hard to imagine that 13 million jews could be so terrible as to be the source of all the problems for 1.3 billion muslims and 2 billion other anti-semites.
it's called being a scapegoat. It's always good to have a small, weak, different group to blame your problems on. Human nature- the bad part.

Read the history of the Roman Catholic Church. You will learn more about Christianity than you ever wanted to know. For your specific question, read about St. Augustine. At that time, the church authorities wanted to kill all Jews because they did not accept Jesus as the "savior." St. Augustine kept Jews from being killed with his edict that "they shall survive, but not thrive!"

(Matthew 24:9) "Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake."
That says it all. Even though the Jews are no longer God's chosen people, now that Christians are Spiritual Israelites, Circumcised of the Heart, the JEWS WERE GOD'S CHOSEN PEOPLE and are still hated because of that. As they will always be, and since our God "grew out" of theirs (i.e., their God still doesn't have a "son" who is a Messiah, while our's does) they share many things in common with us, if only in the NAME OF OUR GOD, which is Jehovah/Yahweh, which is located 4 times in the KJV. So, as we see, Christians as well as Jews can expect to be hated "on account of His Name."

Israel (in the bible, meaning, the Jews) was, is, will always be, the chosen people of God. Satan hates them. Therefore, anyone who is on the side of satan will come against them.
This is not to say that there is any way to God other than by Jesus Christ. However, being the chosen people, they will come under fire until God moves in and makes all things right.

Through the Hebrews God has given us the 10 commandments, The whole Bible, and Jesus the Messiah; and Satan and his people have hated the Hebrews ever since.

us Jews have been picked on because we are different in our religion. if any one should be mad, it should be us, the two other major religions in the world started with Judaism. but unlike other religions when someone does something that is 'sac-religious' like making your own religion and using Judaism as a base we didnt automaticly think. these people should die, we thought whatever. they do their thing and we'll do ours.

Are you kidding? Every religion, race, and culture has at one time or another been the target of discrimination and/or racism. Think about it. Now adays someone says Muslim, and people think terrorist. It goes on back and forth through out time.

because we don't believe in jesus, and that scares christians. if he was really the jewish messiah, why dont the jews acknowledge him? but instead, we have very foolproof reasons of how we know he has not the messiah that christians cant come up with good arguments against.

Why? For the same reason others 'pick' on Christians today....jealousy. We are the annointed and chosen of God...and it shows... and the devil doesn't like it one bit!
