They are such a small minority and one that has been persecuted for thousands of years and still are today. Yet a surprising amount of people still love to hate them. What's with all the anti-Semitic conspiracy theorists? Why do so many people blame irrelevant problems on the Jews? Why do some people go so far as to deny the Holocaust? I don't understand anti-Semitism at all. Maybe I'm just naive you tell me.

Seems to me that the Jews are the most successful and resiliant people in the world.
What with all the persecution, they're still around.
And as for people denying the holocaust, people also deny the Kennedy assasination.

You're correct. Part of it has to do with a lack of understand about Israel, and lies being promoted by the liberal media. Hey, we all now know that the media even DOCTORED A PICTURE during their last conflict with a terrorist group that wanst to wipe them off of the Earth.
Someone below mentioned the "Jews killed Jesus" thought mode. To me, this has been the most illogical of all, because Jesus was Jewish himself. persecuted by other Jews within the synagogues of the time.

well, Im not really sure there is a lot of propaganda and stuff out there. They were a successful minority with markedy different ways in germany, and i think they turned hitler down for art school or something too. I think that was true in medival times also, and probably before.

Jews are unpopular because they are attributed with killing the Son of God.
...because they dress and look different than Christians.
...because, due to discrimination, many went into the merchant classes, allowing some to get rich and leading others to believe they cheated to gain that wealth.

while Rome conquered Israel, their concept-approximately one god did no longer coincide with polytheism. so as that's while the hatred started. After Christianity grew to grow to be the state faith, any god that wasn't Jesus replaced into devil to them, so there replaced into greater persecution. After Rome fell and then medieval circumstances hit, hatred for Jews replaced into deeply rooted, and the Church condemned them. for the period of international conflict 2, Hitler used hatred against Jews to help unite the German people under his rule. That hatred has unfold between families for years, it replaced into carried over to the U. S.. then there is the "Jews killed Jesus ingredient."

I suppose because they didn't have a country of their own, so were always outsiders, and they could partake in Usery, which was banned by both muslim and christian countries.
