Throughout history, there have been many spurts of hate and incitements against others. Except for White American hostility and racism toward Black, most if not all of the hatred has been against “Jews” mainly in White Christian Europe.
Throughout history, Arabs/Muslim and Jews relations have not been ideal or perfect but it has been of acceptance and partnership. Jews, Arabs, and Muslims have lived in relative harmony for centuries going back to the first centuries AD and continued till the early fifties and the establishment of Israel.
The highlight of this was the order of the Caliphate Omar on his first visit to Jerusalem to allow the Jews to come back and return to Jerusalem after being banned by Christian Byzantine.
From Morocco in the West to Kazakhstan in the East, the Jews have lived in harmony and prosperity and were critical partners in commerce, trade, individual intellectual and artistic life, and played a crucial role in helping and establishing a new Muslim bureaucracy and legal system in Umayyad Caliphate. Perhaps the Golden Age for both Arabs/Muslims and Jews was Muslim Spain.
