Ask Julia, I have never seen so much hatred for anything or anyone. She would be the best person to ask....if shes on here long enough to make any more stupid statements.

I think, it is just a crazy idea, that they are not what they are supposed to be in the eyes of the Creator. He wants them to do things a certain way, and they just don't do what they are told by their Law. And maybe antisemitism is some kind of punishment for that. They did witness some major miracles as a nation...
I know it sounds crazy, but that is what I think sometimes.
Any Jew I ever met was not that different from anyone who is not a Jew, but people always seem to dislike a Jew just a little more. It remains a mystery.

Lots of people don't hate Jews. And all people don't persecute them, just the ignorant and uninformed.

It's a cultural thing, going back hundreds of years.
Jews have always been blamed for killing Jesus. They have always been able to make money by usury (lending money for interest) which both christianity and islam forbid. As an ethnic group, as well as a religion, they were "networking" long before the word was invented.

over history in many cases jewish culture and traditions result(ed) in the jewish population not having problems with whatever the common ill was of the time.
fo example from what I read, whenthe plague was ravaging europe, jewish cultures had MASSIVELY less casualtys. looking at it with the knowlege we have now, it seems rather obvious that this could b traced to traditions such as keeping kosher, and general cleanliness in many ways, due to jewish traditions.
while not all jewish people are rich... alot do tend to be relatively well off. while less scientific... this can be connected at least in appearance, to jewish traditions and ideas aid this(you'd think if a group nearby is healthier, wealthier, and such... you'd want to emulate them... not exile them..)
from a certain point of view it makes sense. ... it'd make more sense to copy those actions though.

When the Jews were calling for Jesus to be crucified and Pontis Pilate was washing his hands of the Blood of this Innocent man, the Jews said let his blood be on us and on our descendants.

It really is a mystery, they were even blamed for the black plague and burned at the steak. They have been persecuted for thousands of years.

Two Reasons...
European and American Anti-Semitism: they make convenient Scapegoats
Middle-Eastern: Israel's military atrocities are equated with all jews by some ignorant people...
