I know what the steriotypes are, but what is it that makes certain people anti-sematic? Is it a race as well as a religion, since many have dark hair. All i know is they believe that jesus is yet to come and didnt 2000 years ago. Im not jewish and i have nothing aganst them. Why did Hitler try genocide on all of them? anybody whos willing to fill me in feel free... I do know that they own alot of banks. But why is that? Ive heard that they make up a vast majority of the media... Why is that?

bigotry never has a good reason--you'll hear a lot of excuses, but none of them will actually be good enough to explain it

The huge amounts of stereotypes come from back in the Dark-ish Ages, where the Church deemed lending out money with expectations to be repaid a sin. The Jewish folk, who already got a lot of crap from Christians for not being Christians, weren't under the authority of the Church--and hence became the moneylenders. Since they pretty well had the market cornered, and they didn't much like these guys anyway, they could do what they want so far as interest was concerned.
