Why is antisemitism considered the “oldest hatred?” What do you think was one of the most violent accusations against the Jews? (due 10/18)
Antisemitism is considered the oldest hatred because Jews have been tormented since before 0 A.D. Jews have been exiled, tortured, and annihilated for years. One of the most violent accusations against the Jews was the creation of Martin Luther’s pamphlet, “The Jews and their Lies”, it was because of this pamphlet the many pogroms escalated and many Jews were killed.
What did Martin Luther accuse them of? Good answer
Antisemitism is considered the “oldest hatred?” because it has been around since biblical times. After Abraham “the father of the three major monotheistic religious, led his family to Canaan almost 1000 years before the Common Era (BCE)”. During those era before Christ the Jews at that knowed as Hebrews were getting persecuted because they refuse to adopt the religion of the local or officers worshiping idols. One of the most violent accusations about Jews is that they murder Christians to use their bloods in rituals
Why do you think that was an especially brutal accusation?
Antisemitism is considered the oldest hatred because it has been around since biblical times which was during the time of 1000 years before the BCE. Not only because of the year but also because Jews were targeted for not following or not adapting to a certain religion they don’t even believe in why be in something you don’t feel confused in. Since they didn’t want to adapt they were presecuted. Antisemitism was eventually broken down into 4 big topics that eventually help confirm why antisemitism is considered the oldest hatred.One of the most violent accusations about Jews would be how they took children and feed on their blood or how they took Christians killed them and took their blood for evil rituals.

good- make sure your answer is clear
Anti-Semitism is considered the “oldest hatred” because it has been practiced by man, ever since Jesus Christ has walked upon this Earth. To date, it is one of the longest hatred topics to ever be established and still be used to this day. One of the most violent accusations against Jews would have to be the murdering of Jesus Christ. This accusation was the start of the targeting of Jews and it is what led generations after that to pick up on old habits and continue to create more and more accusations. Jews were targeted by their religious beliefs and by who they were. Being accused of killing Jesus, led Christians to target Jews and to start the foundation of mass annihilation of Jews for centuries after that. It allowed people to falsely accuse them of things such as, spreading the Black Death, performing ritual murders on Christians, and even orchestrating the Treaty of Versailles. Ever since, Jews were made a topic of discussion whether they are being made fun of, labeled, or being accused of a crime. Being targets dating back to biblical times, it allowed mankind to then take advantage of this mistreatment and allowed leaders such as Hitler, to massively exterminate Jews. Jews have been sterotyped since the beginning of civilization and are never viewed as regular people in our society, due to historical events that’s have occurred.
awesome answer!
Antisemitism is one of the oldest hates because of how far back it goes. the hatred of Jews go back to BCE. from that time onward Jew have been blamed for many things that happen in history such as Jew spreading the black plague. the most violent of acts that the Jews where blamed for was the stealing and killing of young christian children and using the blood to make there food for pass over.
good start – can you expand?
Antisemitism is considered the oldest hatred because it has been going on since the biblical times where they were seen as stubborn for refusing a religion everyone else followed. One of the most violent accusation against Jews is using the kids blood to make their special bread or believing the where rich people.

Antisemitism is considered the “oldest hatred” because their is evidence that Jews have been negatively targeted since 70 C.E., when the Romans destroyed the Jewish state and have been continued to be negatively targeted since then. In my opinion one of the most violent accusations against Jews was that Jews were responsible for all the problems of the Russian peasantry. This was one of the most violent accusation because it caused pogroms to be ignited. These programs resulted in the wipe out of more than 500 Jewish communities. What makes this accusation even more unblieveable is that most Jews were peasants them self.
**pogroms
Good answer – I like how much detail you used.
The reason Anti-Semitism is considered one of the oldest hatreds is because the hatred of Jews have gone on since back in ancient Egypt because of their belief that there is only one god and that pretty much just goes against every other religion that does not just believe in their god. I think one of the most violent accusations against the Jews was that they killed god by killing Jesus Christ they were responsible for anything bad that happened after that because it would be repent from god himself for killing his son.
this is confusing…
Antisemitism is considered to be the oldest hatred because it has been going on for years such as C.E years. Jew have been judge based on the belief of washing before they pray, Christians believed that they were spreading the bubonic plague because of their belief system before they go and pray. Germany claimed Jews to be traitors and helpers of the Treaty of Versailles. One of the most violent accusations of the Jews to me was when Martin Luther said that people should Robb them and take their jewels etc, this cause many pogroms and which I believe is the prime source of the holocaust when it came down to Jews .
check your spelling here – it got confusing
Antisemitism is considered the eldest hatred because it has been around since before Christ, The Hebrews who were the earliest Jewish people experienced intermittent persecution for not worshiping the idols of the middle east kingdoms. Antisemitism can even be found even in modern times. There have been many accusations made about Jews, but out of them all I consider the accusation that they thirsted for Christian blood to be the most violent.
good start
Antisemitism is considered the oldest hatred because it has existed since the religion Abraham created was split into many different interpretations of the belief. The most violent accusation i believe has been given to Jews were the blood libel where they would kidnap Christian children and use their blood for their religious rituals during Jewish holidays.
Good use of the term “blood libel”
Aniti-semitism is considered one of the oldest hatreds because it dates back so far. Jewish people having been persecuted since Roman times. I think the most violent accusation is they killed Jesus. This accusation still creates problems today and to me seemed like the backbone for more accusations due to religion being so strong back in the day.
religion is still strong!
AntiSemitism is the hatred of Jews and this goes all the way to mid evil times and before that .i think the most violent accusation of Jews is that they started the Black Death jut because they were not dying as much
