    Quran 5:82 “Thou wilt find the most vehement of mankind in hostility to those who believe (to be) the Jews and the idolaters.”

    I’m not saying that there aren’t any negative writing about the jews in the Quran. But this passage is saying that believers of the truth(Islam) are hated most by the Jews and the pagans.

    There is a reason almost the entirety of the native Jews of pretty much every middle eastern country fled to Israel. Being a Jew in the middle east was a constant hardship.

    Jews and Muslims had cohabitated the region in relative peace since the 7th century under the dhimmi system . Up until 1948 nearly a million Jews lived integrated lives across the Arab world in peace. Arab nationalism didn’t really exist as a cohesive construct until the establishment of the Israeli state.

    That’s just as wrong as hating Jews because some Jews support Israels genocidal actions.

    Right, but the Israeli state is the main actor conflating the state with the people.
