Maybe not the world, but you can make an argument about the middle east. Not saying they caused it or are to blame, but there is some truth in the question. Can't we look at the question objectively? Do you think the question should have been removed?

Get real. The jews have about 1/50 of 1% of the world population. How could they be the cause of all the worlds problems. In the middle east they own .6% of the land.....not 6% but .6%. That's what Isreal is......... .6% of the middle east land. All the rest is owned by Muslims. Yet they talk about 'land for peace'. If I was an alien from outer space who knew nothing about earth and I came here and they told me there was a war going on in the middle east between the muslims and jews and the muslims owned 99.4% of the land and the jews owned .6% and they were trying to end the war with a 'land for peace' agreement, I would say "why don't those muslims just give up some of their land so we can have peace....after all, they own 99.6% of the land". If I was then told that this 'land for peace' agreement means that the jews give up part of their .6% to the muslims who already have 99.4% of the land, I would think everyone on this planet is crazy. The jews are not the cause of the problems in this world and anyone who seriously thinks they are needs psychiatric help. Incidently, I'm not a jew just trying to defend my race. I don't have a drop of jewish blood in me. I'm an evangelical christian. But, then again, some people(a la Rosie O'Donnell) think we're the cause of all the problems in the world. So maybe we have something in common with the jews.

I can understand why this type of question would be removed. First of all, to say that the Jewish people are the cause for the major world problems is not only false, but it is a claim that you could not possibly substantiate. To make such a claim, one would have to have mountains of facts to support it, and you have none, because there are none. What you have is rhetoric that is spewed by anti-Semites worldwide, and you've obviously bought into it.
To know the Jewish people, you must go to them. Have you? If you have not, then you obviously do not know them, or anything about them. Have you spent time in Israel? How well do you know the Israelis? Have you studied their history and conflicts with Muslims?
History does not lie. The assaults on Israel have been by Muslims, unprovoked, 100% of the time since Israel was established, once again, as a nation, in 1948. So how can one conceive that the Jews are a source of problems?
Soverign nations, such as Israel, have the right to defend their country, their property, their interests, and above all, their people from attacks from other nations. Other nations do this, and there are no objections for the most part. But it seems that when Israel defends itself from attacks, it is labeled an aggressor and the "source of the world's problems", which is total nonsense.
There is no "truth" to the question that you posed. And to be "objective" means that you must be in possession of all the facts on the issue, which you are not.
For now, people are going to perceive you as an anti-Semite, whether you are or not. So investigate the Jewish people, and see what a wonderful people they really are. And when you find this out, you will see that your question needed to be where it is now.... deleted.

Well, isn't a lot of the problems in the middle east because foreigners gave the Jews back the land that they lost despite major opposition from the Arab nations. It's like they didn't even care about what the Arab nations were saying. They just took the land anyway from the Muslims and gave it to the Jews. It was an obvious ticking time bomb ready to explode. Give the Jews land surrounded by Muslims who don't believe that they have a right to be there. In that way, the inception of Israel is a source of hate between Jews and Muslims.

Seeing as the Christians are the self proclaimed majority, followed closely by the Muslims, and both speak of hatred of Jews in their holy books, and have acted on it in the past.... sounds like they are the problem in the middle east..

Its a totally ridiculous question to begin with and very offensive to some. How, pray tell, are Jews responsible for most of the worlds major problems. Is it the Jews fault that most of the Muslims in the world hate them and want to destroy them. Your prejudice proves your ignorance.

Why do you think ?
Look at what the question said :"the cause of most major problems"
That line comes right out of the anti-semite's handbook,and has no place anywhere.Anti-semites should not be tolerated.

Simple. Media in the USA is controlled by the Jews. A question is a question and should not be removed, and your question has some merits.
