The Quran says that Allah created man in his image--then why do you hate Jews? If Allah created ALL men including Jews, wouldn't you be hating Allah by hating Jews or anyone else for that matter since they were created in Allah's image?

That's a good point---if they hated someone, they would be hating their god. And people think Christians are contradictful...

First of all, I'd say as a Muslim, that we generally do not hate any Jews or Christians. In Qur'an, Allah invited them to the truth of Islam and considered them as people of the book. I think you got the idea from Israel-Palestine situations.
Secondly, Islam doesn't accept it fully that Allah created humans in His image. I mean, we don't take it as humans are in Allah's image. No. Rather, Allah is like no one. In Qur'an:
"He begets not, nor is He begotten. (112:3)
And none is like Him. (112:4)"
I agree with Poki Poki above. War is for self defense. People these days only see what Muslims are doing, killing etc as they are submerged in media. They got to see what some non-Muslims are doing towards Muslims.

we don't hate the Jews nor the Christians!!
the anger is because of political differences and conflicts and NOT religious.
and trust me as much as the Arabs hate the Israelis, the Israelis hate the Arabs.
Allah told us that we may marry from the people of the book (Jews, Christians) and we may also eat their food.
we are commanded by God to respect one another and to make peace not war.
war in Islam is ONLY for self defense. to simply defend yourself and we have guide lines to follow so we wont transgress.
i hope this helps
best wishes,

from where did you get the information muslims hate all jews? we don't hate people for no good reasons. for your info, i would make friends, break bread with a jew if the feeling is mutual. and i would do the same to anyone else.

Im not Muslim, but actually it doesn't say man is created in His image...that's the bible...It says differently.... The Qur’an does not contain the belief that the man alone is created in the image of God.

We don't hate anyone!
We are not racists. I am not an Arab, nor a Jew, nor a black, yet I a still a Muslim.
No race is hated in Islam.

The gentlemen above me please post the full verses including there context.
Allah(SWT) did not make man in his own image, he made Adam out of clay and placed one drop of blood and he was. Then Eve came out of Adam, making Women the twin halves and companions of men.

People of all religions use their holy texts to sanctify their own personal prejudice. So sad...
