At some point in time, the Hebrews are indeed ruthless nomadic invaders feared by everyone. This is confirmed in historical accounts and in the Bible.

It's probably one reason they became a persecuted race.

The Jews became a feared and hated people because of what was written about them starting in the first century CE and continuing through modern times.

Rahab says otherwise.

Another typically ignorant statement.
Are you suggesting the history of anti-Semitism and the reasons behind it was cooked up by academics?

Nice try, chief.

Won't work.

You know if I answered that, I'd get moderated.

But if you want a hint, here's a good one:

Egypt is a type of the world, academic and otherwise.

Go and read Exodus 1.

Your ridiculous attempts at word games are noted to deflect the issue as are your offensive comments in trivializing the persecution of the Jews throughout history.
