Amalek   Rabbi Moshe Ben-Chaim     Question: AMALEK - who? what? where? when?     Mesora: I can answer the "who": Amalek are any people who hate the Jew viewed as a representation of people fulfilling God's will. Hitler, Arafat, etc. are all Amalek. Amalek is not a genetic people, but an ideological one. They are those who oppose God's will as demonstrated through the lifestyle of the observant Jew.
