Nonsense. Israel is not on the list. The antisemitic world hates Israel for a number of reasons. They are envious because Jews are smart, and God chose to reveal Himself through the Jews. Don't believe in God? Explain the Jews as one noted philosopher once said.

Germans also invented poison gas, chemical weapons, and frightened enough physicists around the globe with their discoveries in the 1930s to encourage an American nuclear or atomic bomb research program. Also they invented some poisonous ideas like Socialism, international or otherwise.
