There also seems to be rampant hatred of Muslims -- why do you think that is?

Just watch the documentary. No fair minded person who doesn't believe the lunacy in tracts like The Protocols of the Elders of Zion--one of the relatively modern expressions of virulent anti-Semitism that has a lineage back to the heyday of Christianity in medieval times; see holocaust-history.org or, if you prefer The Straight Dope research, straightdope.com --could make an analogy between the current fear of Muslim aggression and the kind of anti-Jewish sentiments expressed in this documentary. Indeed the current Arab expressions of anti-Jewish sentiments sound very similar to the Protocols. See The Straight Dope article for this:

Web users can still find people promoting this hoax as if it were real. For example, a site called "Radio Islam" (http://abbc.com/islam/english/toread/pr- zion.htm) talks about the Jewish conspiracy against the Muslims, citing the Protocols as "evidence."

Refutations of the Protocols have also continued. A Russian court in 1993 ruled the Protocols an anti-Semitic forgery. (See nizkor.org /ftp.cgi?documents/protocols/protocols.001.) But judicial rulings don't faze the believers--to them it just shows how the Jews have taken over the courts.
