Why are Jews and Christians attacking Islam? Why are Jews friends with Christians even though they don't have the same beliefs and why aren't they friends with Islam? Why does everyone attack Islam with such hate?

Why does everyone attack Islam?
9/11 and 7/7 didn't help.
Crazy terror plots don't help either.
So, of course Jews and Christians come together as a sort of defense mechanism.
It is Judeo-Christian values vs. Eastern Islamic values that differ quite a bit from one another.

Despite the prejudicial posts about Islam breeding terrorism, the Jews and Christians are against Islam for different reasons. The placement of Israel was kind of a hard pill to swallow, the Muslim countries tried to gang up on the Jews, and got their butts handed to them. So naturally the Jews aren't too happy with them.
The Christians have traditionally attacked non-christians. I'm not Christian-bashing here, but the Crusades, inquisition manifest destiny were all advocated directly by the Christian church.
All three are Abrahamic religions, they really shouldn't be fighting. Its a little unfair to say that Christian and Jews are attacking Islam however. Indonesia isn't exactly on Israel or US's hitlist.
Anyone can say that Islam produces terrorists, but since when did the IRA stop being terrorist? The KKK? The Church of the Creation? Abortion clinic bombers... etc. etc. Of course these aren't real Christians, but Al Qaeda isn't real Islam. The Bible tells us not to kill innocents, just as the Koran does. There is violence in the Koran, but if you read the old testament there is violence there too.

Might be because some radical Islamics hate both religion-and Jews and Christians have the similar backgrounds, the Old Testaments w/ Moses and Abraham are the same in bot religion-we believe in the same God. They only differ when it comes to whether or not Jesus is the Messiah. Islam is similar w/ the old testament but it branches off w/ Muhammad and that's all the similarities. However, they only attack them as self defense because in some Muslim places don't begin Islam can get you killed.

I speak out against evil when I see it. If that includes Islam, it's because they are proving every single day that it is a false religion. But unlike Islam, Christians and Jews have not physically attacked and killed innocent people. We are defending ourselves. There is a difference. We do not hide behind innocent civilians as Muslims do. We do not purposely inflict terror on people while Islam does. Islam is the one that says to convert or die because you are an infidel.
Merry Christmas and God Bless.

It's not a conspiracy. The Christian faith has it's roots in Judaism, and true Christians have the same love in their hearts for Jews as they do for other Christians. We haven't "attacked" Islam. We've spoken up against Islamic terrorists.

Assalamu alaykum somewhat each student who translated the Qur'an has a average distinction interpretation abou any verse whether they have comparable black hair,each guy or woman has different judgement. between the individuals of the e book are no longer the comparable of their opinion between of them there are Christians and Jews who've sturdy opinion/bring about reciting verses of Allah at nighttime and that they consistently carry out sujood or prostration to Allah Jews as people of the e book comprise non zionist jews In Islam we are able to locate different interpretation too so we've many madzhab or Islamic sects after Muhammad pbuh surpassed directly to the great beyond.such Maliki,Syafei and so on

As a Muslim, I do not believe that all Christians and all Jews are in alliance against Muslims. Although there are many sick minds out there, it's not fair to say that all of them are against us. There are some Christians, some Muslims, and some Jews who will ally with ANYONE who shares the same hatred as they do, even if it be what they would normally consider an enemy (i.e. extremist Muslims with fanatical Christians against Jews, or any other combination, or all three against atheists). It's so strange how the human psyche can sometimes work...

I do not believe it is a religious thing-----it is a political issue.
Tho, if Bush had won the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, believe me-the missionaries would have soon followed with their Evangelical Christianity.
Jews are not against Islam. Islam has more in common with Judaism than Christianity does. Jews and Muslims have always lived together in peace----Israel/Palestine is not a religious issue----it is a political issue.

Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world and it presents an immediate threat to the status quo as viewed by Christians and Jews.
Judging by some of the answers I have just read, the propaganda campaign is quite successful. At least when Christians hated Jews, they had to whisper their hateful commentary..

No. I don't think you understand any of the nuances of the problem. Where you see Muslims fighting Jews, I see poor people fighting against a fairly rich nation. Where you see Christians fighting "Muslims," I see powerful troops attempting to defend poor people. Do you see?
Take that veil of religion of what you see. Some of the people are predjudice, others, for instance, the US, are very active on the both sides. The US people, even with Palestine under embargo, are spending more on charity to Palestine than any other group on Earth.
All, I want you to see in this answer, is that it is way more complex than religion. If someone told you it was religion, they are just trying to get you mad.
