	Jews, Jewish, The Jewish People - The Peace Encyclopedia
		Jew: this is a term derived from a geo-political designation; Jews are identified with the country of Judea and its nation; this indicates ethnic and national identity rather than just belief or practice.
		A sample of Jews subdivided according to the birth-place of their parents or grand-parents have been examined for a large number of genetic markers in the course of a long-term project on the genetics of Jews.
		The Jew saw them all beat them all, and is now what he always was, exhibiting no decadence, no infirmities of age, no weakening of parts, no slowing of his energies, no dulling of his alert and aggressive mind.

		For the Jews of the shtetl the Sabbath and other religious holidays were a time to forget their daily problem’s and hardships and to reflect on the richness of their heritage.
		Jews were stoned and beaten; their houses were burned; the survivors were ordered to move to the interior of Russia, in a special quarter of the Western provinces—the Jewish Pale.
		Although the East European Jews were accustomed to poverty and had learned, through the ages, how to subsist on the barest of essentials, the first-generation immigrant was not prepared for America’s way of life.

		The Jews became Nazis themselves, and are racists, and are killers of Arab children.

		The Jews were practically put in the midst of the Arabs by the Poles, the Russians, the Ukrainians, the Lithuanians and other such nationalities.

	The Holocaust in American Life \| Peter Novick
		Jews were no longer seen as passive victims but as brilliant strategists and able soldiers.
		Fortunately, Novick writes, “increasing numbers of American Jews no longer see things as quite so fl and white.” Nevertheless, the message that Jews are under constant threat from hostile forces remains a central theme of Holocaust remembrance.
		Although many Jews, including this reviewer, strongly disagree with that message, it is drummed into the ears of thousands of Jewish teenagers who are taken from the United States every year to visit death camps in Poland.

		Widespread interest in Jerusalem was reawakened only in the nineteenth century, first by the European powers' quarrels over custody of the Christian holy places and then by new waves of Jewish immigration after 1882.
