When בלק asked בלעם to curse the Bnei Yisrael,
he said ארה *לי, "curse me*".
Mori V'Rabi Harav Hagaon R.Shlomo.Miller shlita said,
In Parshas לך לך, Hashem said," ואברכה מברכיך
ומקללך אאר I will bless those who bless you and
those who curse you I will curse".
בלק knew of this yet he insisted on having the
בני ישראל cursed. even though as a result of this,
בלק himself will be cursed.
The שונאי ישראל attempt to harm the Yidden even when
they know they will lose out by doing so.
The Nazis ym"s at the end of the war, instead of using
their trains for the war effort to save their military,
used the trains to transport the Hungarian
Jews to Auschwitz.
בלעם even though he blessed the בני ישראל, wasn't
entitled to be blessed because it wasn't he who blessed
the בני ישראל
It was Hashem's ברכה coming out from Bilam's mouth.
