 US Jews
So to single out Jews is neither fair nor balanced, not even in the nine states mentioned here, because in those same states there are also significant other groups as well - African-Americans (near majorities in some of them), Hispanics (majority in California, decisive in Texas), labor (mid-West), pro and anti-choice, and so on.
The problem is not Jews, or Hispanics, or union members, it's the apathy of most American voters combined with the relative cohesion of single-interest groups.
But the problem is exacerbated by the silence of those Jews who disagree with Israeli policies which is compounded by the "right to return" and the effective dual nationality that every Jew enjoys.

Yet, many fl converts told me they encountered no prejudice whatsoever from their new congregations, and that people had gone out of their way to be friendly.
But while many fl converts agreed that their rabbi and their temple treated them well, there was also a common thread in their comments to me--regret that there were so few other Jews of colour in their congregation.
The fact that we still refer to "fl Jews" implies that somehow Jews are supposed to be white (as we once referred to "women doctors," implying that the norm was doctors who were male).

Iran's Jews trace their origins to the Persian conquest that freed Jews from their Babylonian exile in the sixth century BC.
Ethiopian Jews claim even earlier descent from a reputed son of King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba, King Menelik I, and the courtiers who traveled with him from Jerusalem to Ethiopia.

 Blacks and Jews: The end of an alliance
While I share the outrage of many Black Americans over this, the latest successful move by prominent Jews to silence outspoken Black leaders and to set the Black agenda, I also sense that there is greater indignation now than ever before over this ongoing affront.
This tendency of prominent Blacks to placate Jews by ignoring their excesses or deflecting criticism from them is precisely why so many Jewish leaders and organizations have consistently criticized, defamed, degraded and defeated certain Black leaders with impunity—AND WILL DO SO AGAIN.

As for antiracism, if Jews are pursuing a "group selection strategy" by promoting antiracist ideology (as Kevin MacDonald believes), it is backfiring on them when more than 88% of Jewish parents are ok with their children intermarrying, and "when not a word can be uttered about endogamy".
