If the jews originated from the Middle-east, then why are there such strong feelings amongst the Arab muslims?

Question

to get them out?

I stand corrected, not just Arab muslims, probably every muslim in the world wants that.

There is a big difference between wanting to share the land and KILLING EVERY JEW and DRIVING THEM TO THE SEA.

Most people in Israel today are born in Israel. How can they be of European descent? Only the old guys, ie people over 60 are probably those from Europe.

Answer 1

Because they view Jews and Christians as INFIDELS or HERETICS or BLASPHMERS.

It's in their book.

Answer 2

If people are supposedly more smarter and civilized, why is there still such ignorance as displayed by you?

You cant steretype and generalize for the entire Muslim population based on the thoughts and actions of a select few. Islam teaches tolerance, brotherhood, peace, and unity, and is just mis-interpreted and mis-construed by extremists. The only problem that exists is that Israel won't share the Holy Land, that also is a Holy Land to Muslims. The palestinians get nothing just because the US backs Israel. Its complete BS, and most of the damages are caused by the Israelis.

Hamas is doing wonders for the palestinians and they were voted in democratically as well. However, your media is bias and you only hear what the owners want you to hear, that they are a terrorist group bent on blowing up all of Israel. If you had some common sense, you'd realize thats the last thing they'd want to do. Its Holy Land.

Answer 3

The Jewish religion originated in the Middle east, and many Jewish people have lived in that region continuously for generations back hundreds of years. Nobody minds them remaining, and their contributions to the various societies have been appreciated.

Other Jews are no more Middle eastern than any other European or Russian. Furthermore, many of the people living in Israel claiming to be ethnically Jewish are atheist or agnostic AND of predominantly European descent. What right do European atheists have to claim an entire country as their "Holy Land"?

Answer 4

an surprising decision for all fascinated could be Joan Peters' e book, "From Time Immemorial", publ. 1984. (it is likewise in accordance with comments on your question by using Julie Travelcaster and Mel. ) the author is a journalist. She is neither Jewish nor Arab. besides the reality that many tried, no person ever succeeded in refuting her thesis. no longer fantastically, some chanced in this e book so threatening that there grow to be an attempt (for the period of the mid to overdue Nineteen Eighteen Eighties) to have it removed from bookstores.

Answer 5

You need to,look in the Old Testament for the story of Abraham's sons Isaac and Ishmael. That's where the whole fight started between the Jews (seed of Abraham) and Arabs (descendants of Ishmael).

Answer 6

here is some triva...at the end of ww II alot of jewish survivors of the holocaust literally were still living in the concentration camps...
there was no place to put them and no country really wanted them.

Harry S. Truman had a store in liberty,Missouri..his partner was a man of the jewish faith...
This former partner went to truman ( who was president of the USA at the time) and begged for a place for his people ( the tribes of isreal).
After much thought..Truman agreed and the state of isreal was formed out of palestine...
which ofcourse led to all of the troubles in the middle east that is still seen today

Answer 7

Because the British took Palestine from the Palestinians and gave it to the Jewish people to form the State of Israel.

Answer 8

this posibly goes back to old days when jews were prosecuted and blamed for many tradgedies that occured in europe. Many muslim armies took over jewish lands in isreal and other parts.
