Why all the hate on Israel?

Question

I was born in Israel, and let me tell you, before this d**n war/fight was there it was probably the greatest place to live in. But then, all that stuff changed with the Palestinians bombing them. And when Israel bombs back, they get bad media coverage and people say "death to Israel" or "Hitler was right."

This stuff just upsets me. So why all the hate on Israel? Am I missing something? So far, all I can see is that the Palestinians are using their own people as human shields, teaching their kids hate. Someone once said that this war shall end when Palestinians start loving their children.

Anyway, so why all the hate?? Am I missing something?

Answer 1

Do you think this has something to do with the Jews stealing Palestinian land, forcing and/or killing the innocent Palis to make room for themselves. People will definitely say that Hitler was right, after the Holocaust the Jews gained world sympathy but being the Jews that they are, they did not know how to play nice. They will never have peace and security until they leave Palestine.

Answer 2

I don't like your people mister because they shoot blindfolded prisoners.

I don't like how you treat the people that lived over there 100s of years before you were born.

I don't like the Jews that live in my hometown because they never say "Good morning" or "Hello" to no one. All folks around here are scared sh**tless just by looking at them.

Thank God our Sheriff is watching over them real good.

Answer 3

You might wanna rephrase what u just said... Palestinians bombing them....No, ur wrong, its the israelis who are bombing Palestine and killing innocent women and children.

When i was back in Palestine, a woman from my town was in labour with twins after trying to get pregnant for many years. She had to cross by the checkpoint in an ambulance, and they refused to let her go to the hopsital, and the babies died in her womb. Now wheres the justice in that?

You say hate, well im Palestinian and i hate zionists. I have never ever ever seen a good jew, people tell me not to generalize, but how can i , when i have seen them kill, humiliate, imprison thousands of innocent people. Come on, u  say u were born in israel, so u should know what ur people are doing.

You think we dont love our children and that we will just waste our lives just to get revenge? Well ur wrong, we love our kids just as u love urs, even more. we are humans, ok.

Answer 4

Misinformation,Good old fashioned antisemitism masquerading as sympathy for an oppressed people who are only oppressed by thier leaders.Most of those who answered before have bought into the pallywood propaganda hook line and sinker.Show them a palestinian killing innocent children and theyll justify it.

show an israeli soldier showing restraint to a child throwing stones at him theyll call him a coward.

Answer 5

yes, you miss the hate of jewish settlers in hebron towards palestinian civilians

Answer 6

You're not missing anything.  You're right.

These radicals try to destroy with propaganda.  And they're doing a very good job on idiotic gullible Westerners.

Every American and Israeli could leave the Middle East and they'd still hate and try to destroy.  

And now they're all spread out into our Western countries.

Negotiating with them will not work.

Answer 7

You poor Ricky, you only saw one iota of one scene of what you think is a beautiful place, all you have to do is look a bit farther, you will understand foy yourself why the hatered is implanted so deep, I remember the massacres of the 40's and 50's of innocent Palestanians by the israeli army to drive them out of their country, a little boy had 12 brothers in his family, he hid during one incursion on his village of Der Yassin, the Israelis killed his whole family, he escaped by hiding under a slab of concrete, he made a promise to himself that if he made it alive, he would not stop having children for as long as he could, figuring that if the jews kill all of them but one, that one could keep the palestanians from extinction. Palestanians are not going to be driven out of their land. trust me.

Answer 8

No, you're not missing anything.  It is same thing they still hate us.

Like Lando said there has just been a propaganda push. Mostly people that are anti-Israel on this board are perpetuating neo-n**i propaganda trying to capitalize  on the Palestinian situation.  Gullible people believe them.  They actually hope for it and the unsuspecting Muslim that comes along too.  It makes trying to make peace hard and it does affect the way things are on the ground in Israel.

The world still turns though despite them.

Answer 9

Ricky my dear friend.

Please read a history book, people always did and always will hate the Jews.

There are wars going on all over the world, off the top of my head I can think of the genocide going on in Africa.

People don't care.

Israel is the Jewish state, that is why every single person on this planet seems to have an opinion, if this was happening any place else in the world it wouldn't have been getting so much attention.

Answer 10

ur missing the un-biased media. Thats bs, and its Israelis hate that started. i don't agree with those who say death to israel or hitler was right.

but wtf, Israelis teach there children to hate all arabs, and that we must die. i'm sure u didn't hear that one. how bout when they use us as shields, or when they throw a whole bunch of muslims in a truck. low air and than shoot the truck so we can get some air (not minding if they kill some of us. or wait, did u c how they beat muslim women and children, and pull off their hijabs?

i'm not saying ALL jews, i'm talking about those zionists. honestly what's happening in Philistine SHOWS humans with NO heart.

Answer 11

Yes,

I think you are missing the meaning of the words

"Israeli daily atrocities against Palestinians must be retaliated by peace loving people very soon"

Answer 12

yes you are missing something. you were born in israel you see one side.

i live in the u.s and they always make it the palestinians fault. when a israeli dies it makes news. when a 50 palestinians die you never hear about it.

when i watch mid-eastern news i pick up the facts. how many were killed from both sides if any.

the fact is that israel became a state after the holocaust. they put the jews there b/c they felt sorry for them. fine they put them in an area in palestine 60 some years ago. now the palestinians are left with less land than the jews began with.

as for hate. the palestinians home have been taken from them just to make room for more jews. fathers are killed infront of their children. u never see that. if someone did that to u would u like them? as for israel children, they show hatred too. look at the links i put below (i googled israel children and looked under images)

I am not one sided here. you see one side so i am showing you the other side of things.

i live in the u.s (pro-israel government) so i get my share of anti-palestinian news.

i also get pro-palestinian news, so i see both sides

peace

Answer 13

Nothing belongs to humans and if they are going to plant themselves in a state that was never theirs to begin with, surely there is going to be uprising.  Those people around there and inside of there are all very ignorant.  I don't see any 1st world developement there, and everytime they lay one stone 3000 will be removed.

Its a loose loose situation on both sides and surely they should just push the button and rid us all of this great filth and greed that gathers.

Answer 14

Hatred  has existed for centuries, well before the rise of the modern State of Israel. Rather than Israel being the cause of hatred, it is more likely that the distorted media coverage of Israeli policies is reinforcing latent anti-Semitic views.

As writer Leon Wieseltier observed, “the notion that all Jews are responsible for whatever any Jews do is not a Zionist notion. It is an anti-Semitic notion.” Wieseltier adds that attacks on Jews in Europe have nothing whatsoever to do with Israel. To blame Jews for anti-Semitism is similar to saying blacks are responsible for racism

As noted in the fact about criticism of Israel, taking issue with Israeli policies is acceptable if you do so because you believe that a) Israel has the right to exist, and b) that changes will make Israel a better place. In fact, such criticism, by Israelis, can be found in the Israeli media every day. Criticism crosses the line, however, when it delegitimizes Israel and is intended to weaken rather than strengthen its institutions.Criticizing Israel does not necessarily make someone anti-Semitic. The determining factor is the intent of the commentator. Legitimate critics accept Israel's right to exist, whereas anti-Semites do not. Anti-Semites use double standards when they criticize Israel, for example, denying Israelis the right to pursue their legitimate claims while encouraging the Palestinians to do so. Anti-Semites deny Israel the right to defend itself, and ignore Jewish victims, while blaming Israel for pursuing their murderers. Anti-Semites rarely, if ever, make positive statements about Israel. Anti-Semites describe Israelis using pejorative terms and hate-speech, suggesting, for example, that they are “racists” or “Nazis.”

Natan Sharansky has suggested a “3-D” test for differentiating legitimate criticism of Israel from anti-Semitism. The first “D” is the test of whether Israel or its leaders are being demonized or their actions blown out of proportion. Equating Israel with n**i Germany is one example of demonization. The second “D” is the test of double standards. An example is when Israel is singled out for condemnation at the United Nations for perceived human rights abuses while nations that violate human rights on a massive scale, such as Iran, Syria, and Saudi Arabia, are not even mentioned. The third “D” is the test of delegitimization. Questioning Israel's legitimacy, that is, its right to exist is always anti-Semitic.

No campaign exists to prevent people from expressing negative opinions about Israeli(hate) policy. In fact, the most vociferous critics of Israel are Israelis themselves who use their freedom of speech to express their concerns every day. A glance at any Israeli newspaper will reveal a surfeit of articles questioning particular government policies. Anti-Semites, however, do not share Israelis' interest in improving the society; their goal is to delegitimize the state in the short-run, and destroy it in the long-run. There is nothing Israel could do to satisfy these critics.

Answer 15

Israel right to exist is un-questionable by the west and US in particular . they have the upper hand in the international community ; militarily and financially . the west is Christian and they had religious fights with Arabs and Muslims over the Holy land for 1000 years . the strategic location of Palestine has made it a point of clash between the Arabs and the Europeans since the Roman Empire . the Jews were the direct victims of this European policy for ages . the Romans kept destroying any Jewish entity in the Holy land or they put them under their direct rule . it is too bad the Jews were dislocated and banned from living in their country for thousands of years . it was again the Europeans and the new emerging power America who exploited the Jewish cause to establish a non-Muslim entity in Palestine in their long fight of crusading . the only thing with the creation of Israel and to serve unsettling the Muslim area is that they adopted ethnic cleansing and denying the Palestinians their rights in living in their houses and lands . Israel adopts colonial tactics ignoring that colonials have a place to go to , like the British go back to Britain , the French go back to France , but Israelis don't have a place to go . all Israel is an occupied land .

Israel can't abide to logic of peace because they are supposed to be the advaced post of the crusaders .and the crusaders have their own terms .

Additional Details :

Enrique (AKA Jack) : just to correct a bit of information you mentioned ; it was Nasser who said that they will throw Israel to the sea . I'm not familiar with the info that Hitler have said this before .

Answer 16

You're missing something, all right!

What ever you've stated is all opposite!

What pisses me off about you people is that, you never acknowledge your evil! NOT even a bit!!?

By that, you'll at least gain some trust among people, but you Zions have lost all the credibilities. You've got NONE, Zip!

I mean, look at your own statement.

Usual story, while attempting to glorify Zions and presenting/portraying them as little Innocent angles!  bashing on Palestinians and the rest is history!!

It's pathetic.

And i should remind you the part that, any one who gives an opinion is to be called anti semi, or get reported on this forum!!?

Don't you think, this is way beyond being ''pathetic''!

Honestly!

Answer 17

I agree with the Spiderman. Jews like to plant themselves in places they are not wanted to gain sympathy, but people are starting to realize that and few are falling for it now. All the decent people support Palestine.

Answer 18

all the **** that the Zionists told the media isn't true example: "we'll throw them to the sea", or Hitler was right.

Arabs never said that....the Zionist knew they were doing something bad and they attributed these words to the Arabs of Palestine.

and there are So many broken peace treaties (Camp David Accords, ect),

broken dreams, checkpoints, military occupation in the Palestinian territories, need i Say more?

Answer 19

People are hating the game,not the player.

Answer 20

There's plenty of hate on Palestine too, just look at some of these responses---and at your own question.  Both sides are to blame, but it makes me particularly disgusted when one side tries to make it seem as if they are completely innocent and have done NOTHING wrong.  You are missing something---perspective.

And to the person above me--how is an adult stoning a tied-up child NOT cowardly?

Answer 21

what are you talking about, palestinians using their kids as human sheilds, well does this look like a palestinian holding someone as a human sheild,

Answer 22

Well they did invade the Palestinians
