in short, the Jews welcome the slings & arrows of scorn by other
'inferior' religions, because hate & anti-semitism is further proof that
they are a chosen people

So, can anyone take this back farther than 80 years please? The situation in the middle east is obvious, and is being handled quite well on other threads. What has been the foundation for the view of Jews throughout history. They were hated prior to Hitler. And please don't say "holier than thou" again. That meshes with all religions.

539 BC : Cyrus the Great of Persia conquered Babylonia and he permitted the Jews to return to Judea, a district of Palestine.

If you want a historical context for anti-semitism, the Jews have traditionally been proactive in the gold supplies of European nations. Jews were also instrumental in setting up the central banking systems of Europe with Rothchild leading the way....

I honestly don't believe this topic has a place in Middle East conflict. It should be moved to another section of the site.

Considering that the roots of the Middle East conflict is, ultimately, hate. I can think of no more pertinent discussion, about the endless conficts, than this one.

Bigotry. Racism. Discrimination. These are all words to describe one thing -- hate.
These are all words to express what the Jewish people , collectively, have endured for, well, as long as anyone can remember.
Urge the U.S. to put a stop to the attacks on Lebanon and Gaza. Show the world there is a principled Jewish voice that opposes the collective punishment of an entire people. Seventeen Jews got arrested at the San Francisco Israeli Consulate on July 17. See news story and photos. Help pay for ads here. Check out photos of July 12 Boston protest here, and July 18 demo at the White House here. Read more about what's happening in our latest JPN, listen to a July 9 briefing with JVP's Mitchell Plitnick here, or go here to write a letter to the editor or contact your elected officials.

Why do people hate the Jews?
Take your pick.
The problem is hidding in a question itself (thread title).
Aren't Jews people too? Or do we have people and the Jews.
The right question IMO is why people hate people?
