Well let's just face it JewishGirl, we happen to fit all the stereotypes. Jews tend to be overeducated; open; for an extreem minority we stand out in scientific endeavour, literary achievment, artistic creativity etc. And we make statements that are actually questions. Speaking for myself, I have a beard (and a big one at that), I always wear a hat and I speak more than three modern languages and am more than capable of holding my own in more than four ancient ones.
As for killing Christ, well I am sorry about that. An extreem minority of an already extreem minority hand a fellow Jew over to the Romans (who put him to death) and we pay for it with extreem reprisals. Expulsions, executions, child theft, ethnic cleansing, pogroms, the shoah, forced conversions and humiliating economic restictions. Trust me, if I could get my hands on the members of the council who were in favour of handing the Nazarean over to Pilate, I would crucify them all for you. Ah, could HaShem not choose someone else for a while?

Because the anti-Semitics were brainwashed as kids to think Jews were bad.

because with a worldwide population of only 13 million people we are an extreme minority in every society and therefore easy scapegoats since everybody knew there wasn't enough of us to fight back.
EDIT
thats because we are confident in our religion and arent willing to compromise it for the sake of winning converts like christianity is, fatguy.

They killed Christ....this from a christian....not that I hold them accountable. No one living killed Him
Also it is scriptural. They are an affront to all.
