jews are people like everyone else. they have a religion like christians, moslems and hindus do, so why should i hate them?! for me it's as stupid as saying that all moslems are idiots because some of them have the fixed idea to be a self-made bomb and the come into heaven ( Rolling Eyes and this issue again Laughing ) ... sure, there are some who think that way, but in which religion aren't some obsessed ones??
even redrose, who is an atheist, is obsessed - with the internet Laughing Laughing

no, back to the issue, i really don't hate jews. i don't know any - not that i'm aware of i mean, but if i got to know somebody and he/she told me that he/she is a jew i would definitely not mind. they are humans like we all, after all Very Happy

Yeah, anytime, anywhere, racism is a shame. I can't stand racism, as much as I can't stand sexism.

I totally agree with both stellara and RedRose..

There are some Jews that i really love.For example Einstein,Anne Frank,Stephen Spielberg..The concentration camps made by Nazis towards them makes me really angry(like all actions against human rights)i feel sympaty for them.But i dont approve what is being done to the palestines,however,politics is a dirty job and generalizing is just not true...

Recently I have been reading a great book whose writer is a Jew shrink.The book's name is "Man's Search for Meaning" Book is based on what the writer had experienced at Auschwitz and his psychological treatment method called logotherapy..

Hath not a Jew eyes? Hath not a Jew hands, organs
dimensions, senses, affections, passions; fed with
the same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject
to the same diseases, heal'd by the same means
warm'd and cool'd by the same winter and summer
as a Christian is? If you p r i c k us, do we not bleed?
If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you
poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge?

William Shakespeare - Merchant of Venice.

Jews have been persecuted for thousands of years. It's about time the rest of us smartened up.

the thing you wrote about what the jews do to palestines isn't true.. the whole world gets all from palestines's point of view..
they explode themselves in malls.. pubs.. and other places like bus-stations.. Israel just trieng to stop this terror.. hundreds of people dieing each year.. now it has stopped because of an agreement them signed..

my post is not about what is being done to the palestines but my opinion about jews.
And it is positive as you can see.
Also it doesnt blame or support anyone.
why such reaction? Confused
I think you are searching ways to defend them even if there is no blame.
ok. go on

Einstein is Jew, Erich Fromm is Jew, Freud is Jew...
All these great and wise philosophers and scientists are Jew, what should I think about Jew?
(Beisdes, my quotation is from Erich Fromm)

Jew indicates a person of the jewish faith. They can be of any race. The Israelis are not necessarily all jews.
Judaism is the foundation of the Christian and the Muslim religions.
Jesus, who is a muslim prophet and a pillar of the Christian belief was a jew.
Jesus was crucified by the Romans who were occupying Israel at the time, with the consent of the jews.
I think he was fomenting an insurrection.
