      The real question is: aren’t Jewish people mostly not Israeli? To which the answer is: yeah of course most Jewish people aren’t Israeli don’t be silly

        What about the region with the highest concentration of Jews (he/him)?

        According to Gemini, it is Israel: https://i.imgur.com/Kfl9Rkf.png …

          Please do not cite large language models as if they are valid sources.

            I did because it’s kind of a well-known fact

              The fact could be “water is wet” or “the sky is blue” and I still wouldn’t let you cite a large language model.

                even if you know it’s the truth?

                  If it’s the truth then cite a legitimate source. It’s not that complicated.

          Another region that has the highest concentration of Jews in the world is the United States. Does that make all Jews American? Because by your logic being anti-american would them in turn make you antisemitic.

          Which in case you didn’t know, that’s fucking untrue as well you fucking bell end.

      Aren’t “Israeli” people mostly genocidal settlers? Making that lot the poster children of Judaism is deeply antisemitic. Don’t smear our Jewish comrades, neighbours and friends by suggesting that “Israel” speaks for them.

        I treat them as all other people… if they act as maniacs, I point it out.

      Not sure. As of 2022, it seems it that occupied Palestine was still mostly Palestinians: Jews now a 47% minority in Israel and the territories, demographer says

      But I don’t think this is especially germane to Zuberi’s point.

        Even at 47%, it would still be the country with the highest percentage of Jews, no? (if true, which I don’t think it is according to other more credible sources) so I don’t see your point

          Yes, and still irrelevant.
