    Sorry what did I know?

    Today I think there are marginally more American Jews than Israeli Jews with about 300,000 Israelis living or working in the US. I would submit that the Jewish population of Sweden is actually more "prosperous" and "safer" than the one in the US given. - and that is even given Sweden's deeply anti-Semitic culture.

    I'm sure Pashtuns and Iraqis living in the US are safer and more prosperous, so I'm not seeing your point.

    If you cannot understand the reasoning and power of an idea, (politics?) then it is no wonder some folks here struggle so much with the concept of culture.

    - The job of the British Army out here is to kill or capture Communist Terrorists in Malaya.
    - If we can double the ratio of kills per contact, we will soon put an end to the shooting in Malaya.
