Do you even understand why they are God's chosen people?
Being God's chosen people may sound like he is treating them better than other people, but having privilege is not always what it is cracked up to be. Just look at the persecution over the years. No other people have been persecuted like the Jewish people, not even close.
the American Indian (over a century) , The Bosnian's, Cambodian's USSR, Sudan, Syria, Kosovo , Bangladesh and many more could well compete Votto
and guess what> when my pop made it to Dauchau in '45, they found a lot more than just jewish inmates there....
Vatican City has walls...and their immigration policy is much stricter than that of the United States.
But, let me, an unwashed, play along- as I've stated many times I don't get the admiration, the devotion, the adoration the worshiping of jews by christians in light of the fact jewry is an enemy of christian doctrine- the article linked in the OP pointed out some pretty conspicuous evidence that jews despise christians- and no, I'm not fascinated by jews- I'm appalled at the ignorance of christians which is what I question.
we're actually 'infidels' according to multiple religmo doctrines....
You seem to confusing government with spirituality--which is the major part of why individuals practice religious beliefs. Since separation of Church and State we have a clearer picture of what State was doing versus what religion was doing.
That's far from being a universal sentiment on this rock Meri, we might acknowledge separation , but do not practice it in foreign policy
Jewish thought is all about the art of questioning.
IE, answering a Q with a Q ?
that's the art of dodging the bullet

Well let's see, who competes with the Jewish persecution?
1. Slavery for 500 years on Egypt.
2. Canaanite persecutions in the Holy land.
3. Assyrian conquest of the Northern Kingdom
4. Babylonian conquest of the Southern kingdom and subsequent bondage in Babylon.
5. Jewish people dispersed throughout the world and persecution for centuries in Europe climaxing in the Holocaust.
6. Land granted in Israel by the UN only to have surrounding Islamic nations surrounding them protesting and ready to attack.
7. Subsequent Arab Israeli wars. Not one day of peace.
7. Subsequent never ending feud with Arabs claiming to be indigenous people resulting in 24/7 terrorism in their own home land.
8. World wide persecution of the Zionist state resulting in far more UN resolutions against Israel than any other country on earth for such things as building walls, even ones engaged in mass genocide like the Sudan and Syria.
9. Continual world wide condemnation of Israel while essentially ignoring far worse regimes like North Korea and Iran.
