Do Anti-Semitics hate jews due to jealousy?

Question

I m Arab (Iraqi), I lived in environment full of hate toward the jews. but I don't know why. I did not hate them, I felt this is really unfair. when I became adult and grow up more. I saw that there are many talented jews, and they are famous everywhere. like acters, business people, actresses, scientists. there are very rich people, and there are poor but simple people.
guess what I really love the jews now, maybe because I feel they are really victims of all that hate... racists, islamists, terrorists, radicals all hate jews for no reason, except what? jealousy?

if you hate the jews, are you jealous, because many jews better than you?

Answer 1

The Jews were scapegoated for whatever problems the Christians have had. They've blamed it on the crucifixion of Christ, but that has nothing to do with raping, pillaging, denying rights, murdering, etc.

Part of the issue has been that the Jews have continued to prosper at times, despite the prejudices against them. These people were denied property rights, so they became bankers, jewelers, and advisers. People became afraid/jealous of this and created genocides at many times in the past, stealing these people's wealth during the process.

There's been a lot of distrust as well when the Jews' religious alliances were not with the state religion. Religion, historically, was more like a belief in the US today in baseball, mom, and apple pie. It was patriotic to be of the religion of the state, and subversive to not belong. People without religious convictions could easily accept the state religions and blindly perform acts of hatred and discrimination in order to gain position in their communities.

Remember, at the time of Hitler's rise to power, the world was sunk in an economic depression and the Jews controlled much wealth and represented the privileged of Europe at the time.

I trust this gives you some ideas. By the way, I'm Jewish!

Answer 2

The element that plays a large part when it comes to prejudices between cultures, ethnicity, etc. is FEAR.

This includes information that is not accurate. As a matter of fact; just yesterday I watched a special that relates to your question.

The show stated that there is some idea that people of the Jewish faith have a goal of world domination. This misconception has been spread throughout the Arab World and other areas. In addition; the information goes on to state that many events such as 9/11 and other acts where planned by the Jewish organization in order to accomplish their goal.

The same tactics where created by Adolph Hitler in Germany. the only difference was that the "propaganda" used at that moment was he claimed that the Jewish people where the cause of the collapse of the German economy.

There are many examples and the list is not limited to people of the Jewish faith.

When humanity as a whole decides to stop feeding into the beliefs of those that choose to orchestrate "propaganda" and live by the element of fear then a lot of these events that are taking place in our world may someday cease.

It does not matter what an individuals' chosen faith is or an individuals' nationality is or ethnic heritage is the fact remains that we are all one.

Answer 3

I'm not a Jew - but I love jewish people. They have talent and intelligence in their genes.
Some people may be jealous, but I think it is more for political reasons that there is racism towards the Jews today. During the Nazi regime there was certainly a lot of jealousy, because the jewish people were very successful. Some blame the Jews for Christ's crucifixtion, but that's just plain idiocy. Christ WAS a Jew.

Answer 4

anti-semitics hate the jews because, in their warped minds, there has to be a bad guy. since Jewish people tend to be more driven, and tend to own more businesses, or be more sucessful, that is the reason anti-sematics hate them.
another good example, is why hitler hated the jews. when he applyed at art college, he was rejected twice. both times the teachers giving the tests were jewish, and because of this he determined in his warped mind that they were just trying to keep him down.

Answer 5

Religious hatred is prevalent though out the world. Driven by many powerful religious and non-religious leaders. Fear is used to club followers across the head and lead them to the "WAY". A tactic used for centuries to invoke hatred among the masses and drive them to war for the wrong reason. (Although I personally don't see any good reason for war.)

Answer 6

Religion is a business, a highly competitive business. Religious hatred is just another example of the fierce competition between religions. If there is a man living in a cloud, he must be shaking his head, "NO".

Answer 7

There is a great deal of religiously justified bitterness, long rationalized by the most irrational accusations. Groups of people tend to embrace irrationality over rationality. It comes from ignorance, arrogance, and black-and-white thinking.

Answer 8

The jews did not kill Jesus. They were a aspect in his crucification, yet he changed into really killed with information from the Romans. And Jesus loves everybody and continually has forgiveness. As for destroying the Jews, some theorize that it turned right into a attempt on their faith. yet I dont have an answer on that one :/

Answer 9

- The hatred of Jews or Arabs is not good, Jesus Christ made us & surly wants & expects us all to love one another, or we shall answer to Him about letting Sooooo much demonic inspiration navigate the most beloved, into the wicked laughters of santan's demons. May we be sensitive to God's Spirit beconning us to listion to what He has to tell us. & ignor the sugestions of the evil one . . .

Answer 10

there aren't many real jews left - i'm sure they are fine.
Most jews are zionists - everyone hates the zionists. They control most of everything from banks to whatever. They are getting as must power and money as they can for the return of the antichrist.
They are occultists and the henchmen of satan. Zionists hate jews. jews don't regard zionists as jews.
