The facts about American Jewry - Reform 28%, Conservative 25%, Orthodox 10%,, 17% no denomination, other 20%. Reform has been in decline due to intermarriage, declining number of children & people leaving congregations. Orthodox is one of the fastest growing. Regarding donations, American Christians give far more to Israel than American Jews do.

[@gordumherseyi]

[@7135HOLLY]

I think there are probably more (in terms of number of people) Christians who donate money to Israel but in terms of actual dollars I think American Jews donate far more to Israel and Jewish causes in the US.

[@dan5626]

Its surprising to me that intermarriage is being pushed as a cause for decline of Reform in the US, when the movement itself already showcases very dramatic changes in liturgy and practices. I believe that its more the case of people that are prone to intermarry already having a fleeting relation with living a Jewish life, more than intermarriage being a leading cause, honestly.

[@7135HOLLY]

@@dan5626 intermarriage is definitely a major cause. Jews are only approx 2.5% of the entire US population.

[@scottsimon8543]

@@dan5626 Intermarriage leads to a decline in Reform & the number of Jews in general, because the children often don't identify with either religion, or just superficially, like just celebrating one or 2 holidays. Also if you have a Jewish spouse & a christian spouse, they are unlikely to pay the high membership fees for a reform synagogue.

[@inconnu4961]

Keep in mind a couple things please. One is: people dont want to get along. There is something about conflict that stirs people, and they enjoy it. They enjoy it the same way they enjoy horror movies. it gets the adrenaline flowing. Secondly, there are political reasons (usually $ & power) why 'solving' an issue is usually not in certain peoples best interests personally. Everyone needs a raison d'etre, and for many, being in a political struggle is it. This is why the powers that be in my country will never REALLY try to solve our issues. They will lose their cushy job and ALL the $$$$ that flows to fuel the struggle. The fact that decent everyday people are caught in between and may be injured or even die, is a price they are willing to pay! Sad but true.

[@y.l7455]

It depends of what exactly do you mean by caring. For me personally - I don't really care about what the Jews in diaspora think about Israel and how they all view it. On the other hand I do care about the lifes of the Jews in the diaspora. So whenever they would need any shelter or help I believe Israel should give it to them with no expectation of anything in return. Even if the Jew is "anti-zionist" and don't like Israel I still would care about his life if he would be in danger. Anyway - the thing is Israel is being in the "Israeli-palestine" conflict and more importantly in the "Israel-Iran" conflict so each time we elect someone or just deciding about our policy then these decision would affect our lifes and not the lifes of the Jews in the diaspora so like why should I care about what those Jews think? In the end of the day Israel should be governed by those who lives in Israel.

He is an Egyptian officer. He was not born in Israel. The truth is important, as a Jew you have to tell it to everyone, there is no African I don't meet and explain the history to, after that they have no empathy for the Arabs.

[@dudefrombelgium]

If you're Jewish then you should take some time to further immerse yourself in the Jewish and Israeli culture, as Israel is the main hub and the homeland of the Jewish people. Start with learning a bit about the language and then perhaps learn something about Hebrew and Israeli music if that interests you. You will feel closer to your identity and you will be more involved with what is happening. Good Israeli classics are bands and artists like : Haud, Sfataim, Zion Golan, Zohar Argov, Ofrah Haza, Zahava Ben, Haim Moshe, Daklon, etc. If you look up those artists you will start to feel what Israel is like and if you're Jewish you should have strong feelings for it...

Eran has never retracted his hypothesis, in fact he has criticized other geneticists for their sloppy work. According to Eran Elhaik, an Israeli geneticist, the people in Israel are converts. Eran Elhaik, a geneticist at the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health, is calling for a rewrite of commonly held assumptions about Jewish ancestry. Instead of being primarily the descendants of the 12 tribes of Israel, present-day Jewish populations are, finds Elhaik, primarily the children of a Turkish people who lived in what is now Russia, north of Georgia, east of Ukraine. This civilization, the Khazars, converted from tribal religions to Judaism between the 7th and 9th centuries. Several scholars prefer the “Khazarian Hypothesis,” Israeli geneticist Eran Elhaik included. This suggests the Jewish-convert Khazars, with reinforcements from Mesopotamian and Greco-Roman Jews, formed the basis of Eastern Europe's Jewish population when they fled northeast, following the collapse of their empire at the 13th century. But, argues Elhaik, the tale sketched in the genes is backed by archaeological findings, by Jewish literature that describes the Khazars’ conversion to Judaism, and by language, too. 

“Yiddish, the language of Central and Eastern European Jews, began as a Slavic language” before being reclassified as High German, he notes.

Another pointer is that European Jews and their ancestral groups in the Caucasus and Middle East share a relatively high risk of diseases such as cystic fibrosis.

[@theredboneking]

According to the so-called Rhineland Hypothesis, Ashkenazis descended from Jews who progressively fled Palestine after the Moslem conquest of 638 AD. 

They settled in southern Europe and then, in the late Middle Ages, about 50,000 of them moved from the Rhineland in Germany into eastern Europe, according to the hypothesis.

But detractors say this idea is implausible.

Barring a miracle -which some supporters of the Rhineland Hypothesis have in fact suggested - the scenario would have been demographically impossible. 

It would mean that the population of Eastern European Jews leapt from 50,000 in the 15th century to around eight million at the start of the 20th century. 

That birth rate would have been 10 times greater than that of the local non-Jewish population. And it would have occurred despite economic hardship, disease, wars and pogroms that ravaged Jewish communities.

I don't think most American Jews are opposed to Israeli policy vis a vis the territories but are rather indifferent. You can divide American Jewry into basically four segments. (1) Modern Orthodox Jews -- usually very passionately Zionist, tending to support right-wing Israeli policies and believe in a Religious Zionist agenda. (2) Ultra Orthodox Jews like Lubavitch and most "Litvish" , mostly overlap with Modern Orthodox Jews in their support for right-wing policies but generally , but some of them, a very small percentage like Satmar hassidic group for theological reasons are anti-Zionist, but except for a few loudmouth and extemists among them who are drawn to the even more extreme groups like Neturei Karta (a very small group that amkes a lot of noise but which outsiders believe is more numerous)the average Satmar also generally simultaenously is against Israel because it's not a Torah state, but wants safety for Jews in Israel, but not that well-versed in all the intricacies. (3) Left-wing passionately anti-Israel/anti-Zionist Jews, people who are active in groupslike "Jews for Justice in Palestine" , "If Not Now, When". Really the smallest group, but the loudest in terms of Internet presence, the same characters who go to , the few coins rattling around an empty jug make the most noise,like the Neturei Karta fundamentalist anti-Israel extremists these guys like to go to demonstrations against Israelkl a lot so people assume they are more numerous than they are. (4) the biggest group, the vast majority of American Jews are people who know little about Israel and care less, people who barely give it a thought, not pro, not anti, they can't even find it on a map.

First, thank you for your support! And about your argument, Yes and no. In Israel, Mizrahi and Sephardic jews are generally more right wing (not all, for example I’m Sephardic and I’m a leftists ,but I’m in the minority). And when you ask a someone with right wing views anywhere if he cares about the opinion of some group of strangers with mostly liberal and leftist views (American jews in this instance), he won’t care all that much because his political opinion is different. And the opposite goes for Ashkenazi jews (again, majority are leftists but not all. Our prime minister for example is an Ashkenazi jew and have right wing views). So they will have easier time saying they care about American jews opinion because they usually share the same political opinions.

The Palestinian problem is mostly caused by themselves. In the past, the Palestinian authorities were invited many times to have peaceful talks with Israel, but they insisted using violence. While the Israeli government is not innocent, especially how they force high school students to get vaxed, Palestine is not to be supported either. The most hypocritic part is how USA government and media never dare to criticize that particular "peaceful religion" that is beating kids if they fail going to mosques or girls not wearing that veil. Apparently that's not a Palestinian problem only but anywhere with large number of muslims.

[@timdetmers3240]

I feel that Israel is moving away from me, not that I am moving away from Israel. I think that the Palestinians are not being treated fairly although I DO understand why Israel built a wall, even though I do not like it. I am also totally against Netanyahu, he is as corrupt as trump. I do not have a solution to Israel's problem with the Palestinians but I dislike the right-ward drift of Israeli politics. I used to be a much stronger supporter of Israel, and the USA for that matter, but the trend towards the right in both countries frightens and disgusts me.

[@solvingpolitics3172]

Tell me what your country would do to people who mu r d er women & children like Palestinians do?

[@user-ik2bb2vz5x]

The reason why Israeli politics is leaning right now is because they emphasis security and stronger border controls because of the on going threats of trrism, people are tired of these Arabs threatening our people, they bring this on themselves. Dont want a right wing government preforming raids in your communities then stop attacking us pretty simple

[@theredboneking]

That’s a very nice comment. Everyone is human and deserves to be happy.

[@user-ik2bb2vz5x]

@@theredboneking Then allow Israels right to exist and create a nation of your own instead of making your entire identity about destroying Israel

[@ForeverRepublic]

My brother, what you describe as the right wing drift is merely a reaction to the reality that most Palestinians and most of the Arab world hopes and prays for our annihilation. They would do to us what Germany did 1000 times. If our country was conquered tomorrow and 7 million Jews were killed or exiled, millions upon millions of Muslims would pour into the streets all over the world, believing it to be a miracle from G-d. All of them? No. But enough. I know you desperately want to believe otherwise, but this is the reality.

It's easy not to care when you live in Israel and are surrrounded by other Jewish people. Here in Belgium you will be shunned and ostrascized if you express any pro-Israel sentiment, even if it's your cultural background. They show alot of disdain and prejudice towards us and i am really bothered by it because i have no friends after all is said and done...
