Anti-Semitism

No.

No one can truly know the mind of another person, but Emma Watson has made no statements denigrating Jews, made any negative remarks about Jews (as a group), or implied any negativity towards Jews. It is highly unlikely that she is Anti-Semitic.

With the arguable exception of the(Song of the South) no Disney movie or cartoon from the heyday of the (Mousetro)- he died in l966 had Black Characters, live or cartoon. There were no Blacks in the Mickey Mouse Club Mousketeers, it should be noted these were paid cast members, unlike the so-called Peanut Gallery of the (Howdy Doody)- while Arabic locales sometimes pop up as in say, Aladdin, Blacks are nearly always out of the focus.Disney evidentally either did not like Black People or felt they were too controversial for (Clean Family entertainment) it should be noted outside of such things as (Julia) they were rare on Television sitcoms with the exception of the ubiquitous Radio operators on one service comedy, one spy drama, and a science fiction series.

Disney also produced WWII films that depicted Japanese as yellow, buck toothed idiots, and Germans as homosexual idiots.

***I find this answer kind of interesting, since you don't consider the time period or the general feeling Americans had as a whole back then. You just decide to put all the blame on Walt Disney. If he hated the Japanese so much, them why did he hire men like Iwao Takamoto as artists, right out of internment camp at Manzanar? Obviously he wasn't to racist to recognize someones talent and abilities. Maybe you should read a little further into something before you start throwing accusations around. ***

Sick and Tired of the racist word.

Anti-Semitism causing Anti-Zionism
This should be self-evident. The Logic goes thus: Anti-Semites oppose any Jewish aspiration to freedom and/or power. Zionism, the Jewish Nationalist philosophy on which Zionism was based, promotes Self-Determination for the Jewish people which is an aspiration to freedom and power. Therefore, Anti-Semites oppose Zionism. Additionally, many people who are Anti-Semitic see Jews as running some sort of international cabal to strip power from everyone else. Equipped with a country, who knows what further havoc Jews could cause.

Anti-Zionism causing Anti-Semitism
Since Israel is the "Jewish State" many of its political policies are seen by those with little knowledge of Judaism to be part of Judaism. Additionally, they note that Jews outside of Israel do not criticize these actions and often openly support them. This leads to political Anti-Zionist sentiment becoming manifest in religious and ethnic Anti-Semitism. Many of the leaders of Muslim majority states have either said Anti-Semitic statements openly or have funded the circulation of Anti-Semitic literature (such as the Protocols of the Elders of Zion) as part of their demonization of Israel and its citizenry.

Note: While there are certainly those who say that Anti-Zionism is a form of Anti-Semitism, this particular answer uses the term Anti-Semitism to refer to exclusively anti-Jewish beliefs like: Jews are Christ-killers, Jews are descended of swine and monkeys, Jews control the economy, and other such nonsense which existed prior to and has nothing to do with the State of Israel.

Pogroms were violent riots and massacres launched against Jews and frequently encouraged by government authorities.

---

It was, above all, Tsarist Russia that was associated with pogroms. In Russia the whole period from about 1881-1917 was charcterized by pogroms.

Nazi Germany staged the Night of the Broken Glass, but on the whole preferred to avoid public disturbances when implementing its anti-Jewish policies.

In 1941 there were pogroms in Romania, especially Bucharest and Iasi, with Jews being beaten up and killed in the street.

One of the best know pogroms was that at Kishinev in 1903. See the link.

See also the second link, which has a map of some of the places where pogroms occurred in the Russian Empire.

There was no specific incident or trigger. It was the Nazis' view that the Jews were Communists and that they had caused Germany's defeat in World War 1.

well originaly Hitler wanted to be an artist, so he went to some college in austria but when he went for his interview the man that interviewed him was Jewish and he didn't give him the place at the college.

Hitler is hated because he wanted one part of the world, Germany, to dominate everything else, sending the world into a state of fear. He also wanted to kill all the Jewish people, the disabled, Travelers ("Gypsies,") homosexuals and other groups he considered imperfect.

There is really no hard, factual evidence for Hitler's anti-Semitic arguments. At that time Jews were a very small minority but were extremely successful in a high profile way and he wanted to use that against them to benefit his political ambition.

The great majority of German Jews were well integrated into German society and were widely respected, except by Jew baiters. They were '100% German' and made a huge contribution to the science, scholarship, the arts and literature in Germany. Obviously, those who had settled in Germany relatively recently (say, since about 1900) were less integrated.

Sadly they have never ended.

While the main Roman persecutions stopped in the fourth century after the Roman Emperor Constantine became a Christian himself, persecutions of Christians have never ceased

Throughout history Christians have been persecuted for their faith. Even today there are many countries - especially the more fundamental Islamic countries and some of the totalitarian communist states like China and North Korea where Christianity is illegal. In some, merely the possession of a bible is a capital offence.

It is also a statistical fact that more Christians have been martyred for their beliefs during the past 150 years than throughot the previous 1850 years.

New Insert,

While this answer is correct, I think the question refers to the early persecutions that were on and off from the time of Jesus Death till the time of Emperor Constantine. The Persecution were put to an end when Emperor Constantine and Licinius signed the Edict of Milan in 313 A.D.

No, Mussolini did not hate Jews. In fact, he had the support of prominent, wealthy Italian-Jewish families. However, Mussolini's ally, Hitler, was heavily anti-semetic. This forced Mussolini to abide Hitler's rules, and when Nazi Germany occupied Northern Italy, Italian-Jews were rounded up and shipped off to concentration camps.

Jewish people were killed during World War 2 because Hitler thought that they were beneath the German race. There were millions of Jewish people that were killed during this time.

Hitler was a purely psychotic person. His main reason being that he wanted to kill the Jews was to extinct their race. He had no legit reason to kill those innocent people, he was just a very racists person!

It's ironic that the Nazi murderers portrayed the Jews as a nation of murderers. They also portrayed the Jews as subhuman ("untermenschen"), bloodsuckers, parasites, destabilizing plotters, etc., etc.

by blaming Jews for economic woes and appealing to injured German pride
by blaming the country's woes on Jews.

Unfortunately there are many people who wish to kill not only Jews but also anyone who disagrees with their way of thinking.(not a full answer)

White Neo Nazis treat anyone who is not white as dirt and probably thinking about killing them in there sleep.

I cannot think of one nation that is out to kill the Jews within its own nation.

But you could easily say countries in the middle east would like to see Israel off the map but I am not particularly sure if that means all Jews to. Either way there both here to stay

Nazism' is the name given to the dominant group of fascists who ruled Germany from 1933 to 1945. 'Fascism' is the term used to denote political parties and/or leaders who favor a very strong federal government, extreme control over daily affairs in the governed nation, and little or no public freedom for persons and groups with opposing or even dissenting political views.

It was mainly Hitler's hatred for the Jews and the massive Nazi propaganda that was set out. Also, Hitler was angry that Jewish people got top jobs etc. For example, he wanted to be an artist, and his Jewish art mentor told him he couldn't paint. He had a Jewish officer during WWI, whom he didn't like.

Generally speaking, the major Jewish migrations in history were either to escape some form of Anti-Semitism (such as direct religious persecution or segregation laws) and go to a place where Jews had more freedoms.

In the modern world, where Anti-Semitism is less common than it was historically, Jews migrate across the world for business quite often as well. However, we should note that Anti-Semitism is still a strong motivator for Jewish migration, as can be seen by the rising numbers of Jews fleeing Europe because of increased Anti-Semitism there.

He was brought up by two parents that despised Jews, who then passed on that loathing to their son Adolf. While he did not originally set his life on exterminating the Jewish people, the hate he had been taught by his parents was a large part of his politics that he eagerly provided when a broken down Germany (after WWI) needed someone to blame. Yes in truth he was.

Well, they used common tactics seen throughout the entire 20th century, (most notably the Chinese civil war and America during the Vietnam war to raise support for the War against the NVA). The idea is that, if you tell someone enough lies again and again, they will eventually believe it. Hitler and the Nazi's repeated this and used the people's fear and humiliation to their advantage. The fear being communism, (many Jews were blamed for this) and the humiliation of the Treaty of Versailles. The treaty of Versailles was by many considered a huge humiliation, especially due to the nationalistic values at the time, and so if one blamed it on a certain group of people, they would be able to channel all that hatred into that one group, no matter how misleading or inaccurate it may be.

1) Rebuild the German armed forces so that they could go to war.

2) Gain revenge on France for beating Germany in WWI.

3) Conquer as much territory as possible in Eastern Europe and Russia.

4) Exterminate the Jews.

5) Enslave or exterminate the conquered peoples.

6) Settle Germans in the East.

Anti-Semitism has affected our history in the propaganda, relocations, expulsions, and genocides perpetrated against the Jews. The most notable of these acts of Anti-Semitism is the Holocaust, but there are hundreds of thousands of smaller acts and political campaigns.

The official death toll released by the Procurator General of the USSR (tallies were compiled based on lists of named victims) was 32 people (26 Armenians and 6 Azerbaijanis), although some have revised this figure up into the tens and hundreds. Source: Wikipedia via Google search
