They've been on the receiving end for quite some time.
Haven't murderers and thieves been on the receiving end way too long also? Since when does being on the receiving end change the nature of the action? Since when does starting a fight you can't finish change the nature of the action?
Since when does which sect of Judaism including Christian that one chooses merit a different estimation of the nature of individual sects? Were that the case the centuries of persecution of the Karaite Jews by the Rabbinical Jews would put the Karaites at the top of the food change.

Well, I know quite a few...a consequence of having lived in NY...and they would disagree with you. Quite a number think the Israelis are murdering bastards....but you don't want to hear that, I think.
I've got people all over the world who disagree with me. However The Invention of the Jewish People [Paperback] Shlomo Sand (Author), Yael Lotan (Translator) says the same thing but doesn't hit the zionism as hard as he might, Being a professor of history at Tel Aviv University in Israel might mitigate that. It is the same thing I was saying for years before it was published.
Absent this invention Jews most resemble a fraternal organization with a women's auxiliary but the match isn't perfect. One of the mismatches is one is able to say fuck the fraternity and all it stands for and remain a member in good standing even if "self-hating" which is a uniquely jewish stigma which requires public confession as in the Soviet Union and 1984.
Back when I did not have this book to point to as backup, which gave the arguments I made in much greater detail from someone who could not be accused of antisemitism, I used to issue a challenge which I will now repeat instead of correcting wrong answers first.
Name something other than religion which unites ALL the world's Jews other than religion. I am certain everyone participating here understands the meaning of the word ALL. I also assume people here know "other people make the same mistake" is not the same as providing something other than religion. So no idiotic shit like Dawkins declaring himself an ethnic Christian need be posted.

For a fact I have identified Zionists as murdering bastards for several decades because that is what they are including their Christian enablers.
