friendly PSA: not all jews are white

People think that Jews in Israel are a monolith, but they actually come from different places and so have vastly different points of view.

For example, European Jews tend to favor a two-state solution whereas Arab and Russian Jews tend to disagree.

- Thousands of Ethiopian Jews were evacuated into Israel through covert operations by Israel.
  Assessing Claims That Ethiopian Immigrants to Israel Received Birth Control Shots Without Consent
- Probably should edit your comment from “secretly sterilized” to “allegedly secretly provided contraceptives”.
  Being sterilized and being given contraceptives are wildly different things.
- I think you are missing the point. Jewish people who live outside of Israel can't be beholden to policies set by Israel. Its also important to note that Jewish is both a religion and a race.
  Don't let the conflicts in Israel control your treatment of other humans. If we let hate overcome us we could end up with Holocaust type situations (it doesn't even need to be Jewish hate)
Disagree as in Free Palestine or as in eliminate all moslems?
- Disagree as in Arab Jews have kind of a trauma living among Muslims. Also what do you mean by free Palestine?
- Free Palestine
  You're missing one state solution. That's what's essentially going to happen as things go. They're depopulating gaza with the plan to eventually grant citizenship to the reduced population of Palestinians so they can maintain a jewish majority. West bank alone wouldn't cause a loss in majority, but Gaza would. They won't grant right of return. Though that is genocide.

How is this meme pro genocide? Did I mess something?
- Welcome to arguing with conservatives
  They were told something is bad and that’s as far as their brains can go

nyet n yahoo doesn't care about them though.

🤣 нетняху
"nyet n yahoo"
Damn, that's a good one!

Ok this is a legit question, not trying to troll or bait... Are there African or east Asian jews? Like Jewish communities in Ghana or Thailand for example?

Yup.
Ethiopian Jews, Indian Jews, and tiny communties of Chinese and Japanese Jews.
Edit: There are more, but those are mostly Jews that ran away / were expelled from other countries.
Like Jews in Thailand who fled Russia and Iran.
- Interesting, I only hear of American, European or Middle East jews.
First thing coming to mind are the Jews in Ethiopia.
There are East Asian Jews https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaifeng_Jews
- Thank you for the knowledgeable and helpful post

Ethnically or religiously?

Both. For example Ethiopian Jews
- It hasn't been disproved that Ethiopian Jews are ethnically Jewish.
  A genetic study showed a possible genetic link.

I used to know a black guy that was German by heritage

That's a country, not an ethnicity or religion.
- The point still stands. All those categories are social constructs and we morally shouldn't make them dictate our behaviors towards others and we should treat all human beings with respect and dignity regardless of how they look or which group they belong to.
- His family came from Germany several generations back.

Stupid English doesn't differentiate between citizenship and ethnicity

How is citizenship related to this post?
- Oh, I see what they mean, but that's probably racist

Finally, someone else who gets it. It's so weird that so many people think all Jews came from a single tribe at the edge of the desert. That's not how religions work...

even weirder that most people seem to identify Judaism as an ethnicity and not as a religion.
- Because it's both? Jews can be both semites (ethnicity) and followers of Judaism (religion). Not all Jewish people are both. To make things more confusing, not all Jews are zionists, and not all Israelis are zionists.

...while some other people get it wrong in exactly the opposite way (you know, the Khazar nonsense)
