No, they don't. Spanish fans are known for being racist but not violent. I don't know which one is worse, more than likely Italian fans, who are racist and violent.
With all due respect, my travel history has absolutely nothing to do with where I've lived my whole life. A quick brusher upper in logic and critical thinking might be in order for you! Cheers DB
The point is that one does not have the best critical perspective on how people of one's own nationality come across, particularly when one has never lived in any other country. As a Brit, I may not see the British as a rude or aggressive people, but if I have people of three other nationalities telling me they think we are, then whatever I think on the matter, I must accept that there is probably some reason why their perception exists. It may well be based on an unrepresentative sample, but it is probably not completely baseless. It comes across as rather bad manners to appear to be asserting one's positive view of one's own national traits in the face of opposing views from people of other nationalities, IMO.
israelis could also be added to that list and its not an anti semetic thing , apparently their culture of pushiness is misunderstood abroad sometimes
Israeili tourists in India do not have good reputation. In restaurants, they tend to argue a lot with staff-like this was not what they ordered, food should be returned as it is too spicy or too bland. Same way, there has been incidents of shoplifting or fake traveller cheques by Israeli tourists in India.

Maybe were are used to them here in Spain, but they don't bother much. They go to specific places, get drunk and raise hell, but not violent or anything and they are friendly if you are able to understand them. I guess that Brits are like a common fixture, not rude, rather parochial, just like many locals.
