Jews were not ever unjustly persecuted by Gentiles on a massive scale
But a Jewish or Israelite minority was unjustly persecuted by other Jews or Israelites
Let us look at the rpattern in the repeated example in the Old Testament from the time of Moses onward
1 Jews or Israelites do bad things
2 Prophet who is a Jew or Israelite tells them to stop doing bad thing
3 Jews or Israelites mistreat the Jewish or Israelite prophet
4 God sends Gentiles or other means to justly punish them
Some Jews spit on the ground while walking backwards if they are near a Church or cross as a sign of disrespect
Jews also touch the Old Testament with their mouth or lips or kiss it in a ritual in the synahogue
The mouth is a source of spit
I would suggest that it is not a sign of respect but disrespect
They hate the old testament because it exposes their spiritual ancestors crimes
But they have to pretend they like it to get zionist money
Is the Old testament anti-semitic
