The Jews are not the "Antichrist"

I am against using the Christian Bible as a tool to attack the Jewish people. The NT does not present an end-times scenario of the Jews as the aggressors. It presents the Christian church as "Babylon, the Great Harlot"; and the beast she rides on as the revived Roman Empire and thence the European & allied powers. Zechariah 14 states that ALL the nations (i.e. "gentiles", which means "nations" and include the US) will attack Israel and that Messiah will come to stand WITH Israel AGAINST them.
