Are you Jewish?

[MTR]

Only 2 recorded on the poll - Jewish that is, disappointing.

Why is it disappointing?

It is what it is.

Aus as a Nation probably has a very low % of Jewish citizens, and then they have to be an investor, and aware of SS as well, to pump up the stats on here..

I don't know a single person in my sphere of contacts who comes on here....very few are investors too.

Jews make up less than 1% of the Australian population. So having a very small number show up here is not surprising at all. As BV just said.

No racial discrimination comments please.

Which race are Jews?

Wonder what the result would be if the same poll was run at the board of governors of the US Federal Reserve.

Three new appointments, all Jewish. Just an observation.

Which race are Jews?

Agreed.

Please note these are all different things:

1. Jewish people (who live all over the world)
2. Judaism as a religion
3. Israel (the country)
4. The Israeli government
5. Israeli people

It just so happens that most Israeli people are Jews and that Israel as a country identifies itself as a Jewish.

However, I know Israeli people, Jews (and non-Jews) who see themselves are quite separate from the Israeli government (as an example - you can be Israeli and Jewish but that does not necessarily mean you support XYZ policy of the Israeli government).

Note - this post is not racist. I disagree with people who classify any mention of race to be racist. To me, racisim only exists when there is discrimination based on race.
