Having that background may change your mind on who's really teaching who is subhuman.

Sun Tzu, as enlightnening as they might be, I generally don't use 2000+ years-old books to provide me with my knowledge of current events. You might consider doing the same.
Some small titbits of info: In schools in Iran, amongst many others, kids are taught that Jews are evil - Saudi-Arabia recently promised to change this in their schools (meaning: they did the same). in Egypt, Mein Kampf is a best-seller, and The Protocols of the Elders of Zion is seen by many as being real. In most of the Arab world, the numbers of Jews have dropped dramatically in the past decades, which might have something to do with them being kicked out of the country, or being murdered. In the Arab world, a lot of people belief that the Jews were responsible for 9-11, the attacks in Madrid, and even the school siege in Beslan.
Now, I'm pretty sure your historical texts make no mention of these things, but they are in fact real. But if you want some historical texts, you might want to read the Koran, which is pretty damning of the Jews, going so far as to say they should be exterminated.
You see, I can't *prove* that "the Muslims" in general think that Jews are subhuman, because there wouldn't ever be any research done to prove that, and I suspect many people would deny it. But I can see the small details that paint a larger picture of anti-semitism in the M.E. Whether the Jews think the same of Arabs is pretty much irrelevant to that question, now isn't it? It's not like that would somehow make things better...
