The topic that will be covered in this paper will revolve around the faith-based hate crimes committed against Muslims and Jews throughout history.

The Jewish holocaust in Germany is a well – documented event in history that tells us the extent up to which humanity can lose its “humanity” and pit one against the other. Keeping political and other motivations aside, in events such as the holocaust hatred based on the lines of religion, persecution and faith-based discrimination became apparent.
