Why Does Iran Hate Israel???

Question

To the poin to wanting to wipe us out of the map of the world???

Answer 1

I will add that not all Iranians hate Israel. Not ALL Iranian are Muslims, it is mostly the mullahs who hates Israel, because Israel control Jerusalem And the pres. of Iran is a puppet of the mullahs.
People living in thre country, may not even know what is going on, and they don't care.
All we see on TV is what is going on in Teheran, but not in villages somehere in Iran.
So, we should actually ask these non-intellectuals living there to find the real answer.

Answer 2

Personally, I think it's political posturing to gain the respect of the arab world. It seems like the various arab countries use Israel as a way to raise themselves above the rest. Now that Iraq and Sadam are gone, there's a power void in the arab middle east, and Ahmedinejad wants to fill that void. With pan-Arabic support, he can take over Lebanon through a proxy (Hizbullah), already has the support of Syria, and is currently attempting to set up a proxy in Iraq. If all that succeeds, perhaps he'll move on to Jordan and Egypt, effectively creating a Soviet Union-esque Arabic Middle East. I think he's just posturing and making a strong showing to get that support.
The best way to stop them (or him), would be a swift military strike somewhere. No invasion, just some targeted strike to show the world that they're full of hot air, and though they pretend to be strong they're nowhere near.

Answer 3

I think they hate Israel for two main reasons: 1) we were friends with Shah Mohammed Reza Palavi (the last shah), who was very unpopular among many Iranians. And I think another reason has to do with the Western-sponsored overthrow of the hugely popular Iranian PM, Mohammed Mosaddeq, in 1953.

Furthemore, Iran has a boatload of domestic problems, so it's very convenient for the government to use Israel as a scapegoat in order to divert the attention of the Iranian people away from their own problems.

Answer 4

Israel makes a good scape goat.

If you can blame all your problems on a nation that is 2,000 miles away, has very little military capability to attack you and is ideologically different. Your golden

That way Iran can blame Israel when Iran is going though economic hardship, like it is now.

Answer 5

i don't know y Iran hates Israel, but come on now, Israel do not have a very good reputation out there so i dint think that it has so many fans
Edit: Iran has nothing to do with the Arabs,they are Persians so plz don't get confused

Answer 6

It's part of their religion.

It was the Prophet Mohammed himself who attempted to negate the positive image of the Jew that had been prevalent earlier. According to historian Bernard Lewis, the Prophet Mohammed's original plan had been to induce the Jews to adopt Islam; when Mohammed began his rule at Medina in AD 622 he counted few supporters, so he adopted several Jewish practices-including daily prayer facing toward Jerusalem and the fast of Yom Kippur-in the hope of wooing the Jews. But the Jewish community rejected the Prophet Mohammed's religion, preferring to adhere to its own beliefs, whereupon Mohammed subsequently substituted Mecca for Jerusalem, and dropped many of the Jewish practices.

Jews faced the danger of incurring the wrath of a Muslim, in which case the Muslim could charge, however falsely, that the Jew had cursed Islam, an accusation against which the Jew could not defend himself. Islamic religious law decreed that, although murder of one Muslim by another Muslim was punishable by death, a Muslim who murdered a non-Muslim was given not the death penalty, but only the obligation to pay "blood money" to the family of the slain infidel. Even this punishment was unlikely, however, because the law held the testimony of a Jew or a Christian invalid against a Muslim, and the penalty could only be exacted under improbable conditions--when two Muslims were willing to testify against a brother Muslim for the sake of an infidel.
