Wait a sec. If israel did not exist, do you think the middle east muslims would hate jews more than they would hate christians?

Look at the historical evidence. Prior to the existence of Israel the Jews were just another minority in the region, not hated by anyone more or less than any other minority. ME Muslins don't hate Christians or hate any other minority group any more than any majority group hates any foreign group.

However, ME Muslims do hate Israelis for setting up a non-Muslim nation where lots of Muslims lived. You'd feel the same way if some foreign group established a non-American nation where you live. It's a natural reaction to being excluded.
