“John” is often described as most anti-Jewish of the four gospels and it certainly deserves to be recognized alongside “Matthew” for stridency as anti-Jewish polemic. But only “Matthew” places guilt for the death of Jesus also on the children, the eternal curse upon all Jews, everywhere. Still, as polemic inspiring Jew-hatred “John” does deserve recognition for “second place.” This gospel describes Jesus several times threatened with death at the hands of irate “Saducees;” and while “the Jews” appears 87 times in the combined gospels, 71 appear in “John,” typically as a pejorative. But the most damning accusation in the fourth gospel, that which inspired many stereotypes still current, which so effectively served Nazi propaganda to demonize Jews as justification for extermination was having Jesus damn Jews as, “of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies.”
“John’s” identification of “the Jews” as children of Satan became, alongside “Matthew’s” condemning future Jewish generations as Christ-killers, a common justification in the hands of generations of theologians describing and expanding upon the Jewish Problem.

The "Christian Zionists" are some of the most stupid people in all of history. Comparable to radical feminists and homosexuals who rail against "Islamophobia". If they were somehow pressured on this, they would happily take razor blades to their Bibles and cut out the offending parts, rather than cease their Jew-worship.
