What is the Hymn of Hate?

It was a 'song' written in 1914 by Ernst Lissauer to stir up hatred against the English. The English may have taken it as a compliment as no other nation was mentioned! The closing lines went something like this..... ...we will hate with a lasting hate, we will never forgo our hate. hate by water and hate by land. hate of the head and hate of the hand. hate of the hammer and hate of the crown hate of 70 millions choking down. we love as one and we hate as one we have one foe and one alone ENGLAND

Why do some Jews hate other Jews?

Answer 1Jews are not supposed to hate anyone, but there are some Jews that only tolerate people like themselves.Answer 2There are also ...-- Conservative Jews who hate Orthodox Jews-- Reform Jews who hate Conservative Jews-- Muslims who hate all Jews-- Christians who hate all Muslims and Jews-- Catholics who hate all Protestants-- Muslims who hate all Baha'i-- Atheists who hate all believers-- Women who hate men-- Republicans who hate Democrats-- Turks who hate Greeks-- French who hate Germans-- Creationists who hate all Evolutionists-- Little kids who hate teachers-- Black people who hate whites-- White people who hate blacks-- Texans who hate Hispanics-- Drivers who hate bicycle riders-- Southerners who hate northernersand last but not least-- Methodists who hate Baptists.A lot more for inquiring minds to wonder at than simply Jews.And now that I look back on the question one more time as it fades into the sunset ...Where does the first contributor get his essential thesis: "Jews are not supposed to hate anyone." ? What does this mean ? That everyone else gets a pass for their hatred but Jews alone must answer for theirs ? Does that mean that the one who said "Love one another as I have loved you" was only speaking from his Jewish roots, but once he made the jump, he was free to leave all that behind and to enjoy hatred without guilt ?

Was it good that John Wilkes Booth killed Abraham Lincoln?

Obviously for the most part, no. He would have gone on to further lead our nation to success. The only good that I suppose comes from this are two things: It shows the greater you are the more people love you, and also the more certain people will hate you as well. A practical answer is that it also serves as a guideline for safety precautions that should be taken around someone with power.


Why did john booth kill Lincoln?

Booth was a Confederate sympathiser who planned to kidnap Lincoln and take him south, to be exchanged for a large number of war prisoners . However, Lee's surrender made this scheme impossible, so Booth, bitter at the South's defeat, and perhaps ashamed of never having served in the army (though perfectly fit for military service) decided to murder him instead.Booth was a Southern sympathizer who wanted the South to win the War. His assassination of Lincoln was part of a conspiracy- the plan was to kill Vice-President Johnson and Secretary of State Seward that same night.Booth apparently thought the death's of these people would give the Southern leaders inspiration to renew their fight for independence. I think he also had a hatred for Lincoln as a symbol of a tyrannical government , if not as a person.


Why was John Brown an unlikely person to organize a revolution?

He was really a crazy person. When the Kansas-Nebraska act was passed he went into Lawrence Kansas with his 4 sons and killed people. He chopped their heads off. He was obsessed to slavery and his approach was in hate and anger. The interesting thing about that day at Harper's Ferry was the people who were there. Robert E. Lee was the commander of the union forces there. John Wilkes Booth was an enlisted man in the union army that day.
