    Might be signs of renewed anti-Christian feelings. I wonder what will happen now.

    The world is a big enough place for people to go around hating Christians in one region and hating Jews in another and Muslims in still another. One incident doesn't mark new waves of anti-Christian sentiment, although such sentiment (against both Christians and all theists) certainly exists.

    Somehow I don't think that it has something to do with the attacked being christians.

    They are arabs.


    I never heard of jews attacking christians (in modern times) because of their religion.

    Well you know very well that is not true, if you count the fact that Israel is de facto the Jewish nation.
    And furthermore there have been numerous times were Zealot Jews had an insulting behaviour towards members of different religions.

    But these guys are Zealots, like extremists Muslims or Zealots Christians, not the everyday Jew one would encounter in his life.

    On topic (cough): I saw this Munich movie the other day. There some Jewish people admit using violence against Palestinians. It's not that they have to admit it, my point is that, oppossed to what I think Abomination says, them Jewish did attack others for land and "a home".
    Also, I don't believe this "wars" to be about religion, but certain interests on the region. You get more "anti-christianism" in a leftist newspaper.

    Meh. Over-reacting. Somebody's always going to attack somebody for some reason. (Lousy war-like humans. :p ;) ) Plus this is probably the first one I've heard about in a while, so you could say it was just a matter of time.

    EDIT:
    Uhp, too late. You're on your own, Lirio. :rolling:
