Jews don't support terrorism--Zionism does. Such support of terrorism is not supported in the Talmud; rather, it's encouraged in the Protocols of the Elders of Zion.
And I wouldn't say that Jews created the Soviet Union, but they did have a hand in it. Additionally, many of those who supported the Stalinist purges of the USSR were Jews, which is why some believe Jews had a heavy hand in the purges.

The intent was to get the State of Israel by UN fiat since the boundaries of the Ottoman Empire were gone. They didn't plan to have to fight and kill for it.
As far as the Soviet Union, none of its early fans, including those in the United States, had any notion what it would become. Fair treatment for workers. Sounds good. Didn't turn out that way and Jews became a victim of a system that many liberal Jews initially supported at least in America and Britain.
Palestine and Palestinians didn't exist. Arafat was Egyptian, born in Cairo. But once they organize politically for terror on a grand scale as the PLO did, and once they declared their intent to wipe out Israel, I don't see what option the Israelis had except fight.
We can certainly argue whether Zionism has been a good thing for the world. I would say it's pretty clear not. Has it been a good thing for Jews? I leave that to them. But Israel is there now and I expect them to defend themselves and support their right to do so.

If this is REALLY a serious question, maybe you need to do some research first before you ask such a stupid question. For one thing, Jews had nothing to do with the creation of the Soviet Union, which actually was responsible for the extermination of thousands of Jews.
I don't mind your obvious beef with Israel, though I disagree with it to some extent. That is a political opinion, and you are more than welcome to it. But to accuse Jews in general of supporting terrorism is foolishness. Stereotyping an entire group of people for the questionable actions of one nation's government, when most Jews don't even live there, is plain ignorant. It would be like someone saying that all white people support genocide because of the destruction of the native populations in the Americas or that all blacks support murder because Condoleeza Rice supported the Iraqi War. It is a fallacious argument, and it is ridiculous and short-sighted of you to suggest such a thing.

I don't understand your question...in fact, I don't think you understand your question. What did Jewish culture have to do with the rise & fall of the Soviet Union? And what does the existence of the state of Israel have to do with your question? Did you forget part of your sentence? And the war between Israel & the Palestitians is a two-way street. It's also something that will probably never be completely resolved, given the lengthy history involved. Nevertheless, you may want to do some research before asking a question like this, so that you can articulate your question in a way others can understand.

I did not realize that the Jews created the Soviet Union...
that's a new one to me...
I wonder if you could point out when was the leader of the Soviet Union a Jew. Or better yet why so many Jews faced anti-Semitism in the Soviet Union.
I would also suggest you study the background of the creation of the state of Israel. Not to mention the Israeli Independence war.

Did you forget your meds today? The Jews didn't create the Soviet Union.
Isreal believes in defending herself, as we all do, that's not terrorism. The Palestinians, on the other hand, have vast experience with terrorism. I think maybe you've got your players mixed up here, since you're are obviously very confused.

not all of them are hateful, not all palestinians or muslims are hateful, there is no easy solution. Many are just trying to defend themselves on any front. We can only hope to tell the kind an honest from the dishonest regardless of religion or race. and not participate in the hatred.
