Best Answer

How many times? Infinitely many to none depending on how you designate events.

Why?

The racism inherent in some Judaism gave rise to animosity from other groups who in turn became racist and persecuted us.

This is why it is important to stomp out racism from within our own as well as in general.

Obviously we have a lot of work ahead of us.

Answer:

For a partial list, see the attached Related Link.

And the "reasons"?

Xenophobia: fear or hatred of those who are different.

Hatred of people who didn't revere Jesus.

Hatred of people who stubbornly clung to their traditions.

Hatred of people who were (sometimes) more successful or prosperous.

And so on.

(Note that the possibility of "none" in the first Answer [above] is obscene: you can't excuse the wanton killing of millions of unarmed Jews just because some or even many of them are claimed to be racist.)
