If you want to see some real “Jew-hating” ... just read Martin Luther’s writings about the Jews. He puts the Muslims to shame!

Not sure what your point is, except it mirrors the Traitor-in-Chief’s reach into history as justification for Jew hating acts of today. Assuming your description of Luther’s statements is correct, there are very few of his followers who maintain that view today. You will likely find more Jews that are anti-Jewish than Lutherans today.
Posting this from Martin Luther is not for the purpose of “justification from history” for Jew-hating. What it shows is that there are many places where Jew-hating has been clear and overt, at one time in the past, and in a more covert way, has carried into the present. With Luther and Lutheranism that past has carried into the present (or rather “very recent past”) with German citizens and Hitler and their treatment of the Jews. Hitler even used the Christianity of Lutheranism as justification for his attitude and treatment of the Jews. The German people were CERTAINLY complicit with Hitler in what they did to the Jews, and the long history of Luther continually seeped into the present.
Of course Luther inherited that from the theology of the Catholic Church, throughout its long history ... and even with the Catholic Church of today, in its attitude towards Israel and the Palestinians (based on its theology, of supercessionism, or Replacement Theology). SO, religion does carry out into the secular and the political and it results in the kind of treatment accorded to the Jews and Israel of today.
SO, while the Martin Luther writings were almost 500 years ago, this isn’t ancient history, as it is being CARRIED OUT TODAY, as a result of that history!
ISLAM is what I would consider more recent history than Luther and what he inherited from the Catholic Church doctrines against the Jews (and by the way, these doctrines are NOT true Christianity, as taught in the Bible, and many American churches reflect the truth of the Bible and the Bible’s love of the Jews and Israel).
Christianity is about 600 years older than Islam, but strictly speaking, and truthfully speaking, Christianity teaches that it has a HISTORY going back to Adam and Eve, and therefore Christianity’s history is many thousands of years old. In any case, Christianity is much older than Islam and so that’s why I say Islam is more recent history and that means that this same Jew-hatred is more recent than the older and FALSE DOCTRINE of Luther and the Catholic Church of “Replacement Theology” which works out to be against the Jews and against Israel.
Being more recent than Christianity (in Islam), that Jew-hatred is where Luther was 500 years ago, if not worse. I have no doubt that if we are around, and alive as a human race on this earth in another 500 years, Islam will have toned down drastically their Jew-hatred. But it will still be in the “background” and will influence secular life anyway, just as it affected secular life from Luther and Lutheranism with the German people and Hitler.
What we need to do today, is to work against the “theology” — both in some Christiamity [Replacement Theology] and in Islam. So we need to WORK AGAINST IT in Christianity and in Islam (but I recognize that Islam is much more virulent, just as it was with Luther in his day!).
One such organization which is working against that in Islam (and in the USA) is the “American Islamic Forum for Democracy” (a Muslim organization) headed by Dr. Zuhdi Jasser. We should support Muslims like these people, as part of our efforts to fight this Jew-hatred.
