1. U. S.
Desertstraw ,   California   (09.10.18)
The number for the U.S. is seriously under counted. I live in California and know several people with Jewish mothers who regard themselves as Jews who have no connection with any Jewish organization. Jewish organizations and synagogues have no appeal to educated Jews. It is no different in Israel except that the uncounted people in the U.S. are counted there. How can anybody believe the bubba misas that the rabbis spout?
2. The 5.7 million in the USA is an illusion.
Al   (09.10.18)
The majority have assimilated to the point if nothingness.

If cgabad which a sham can make inroads amongst them, that tells me they know precious little about out religion and history already.

The Jews in America are cooked.
3. Tishri 1, the day of Methuselah's death anciently is Rosh ha
Rivkah   (09.10.18)
Shana day 1 this year. History repeats. If there is a Methuselah on Earth who dies on Tishri 1, after he dies, it will come. Anciently that was the Flood of Noah but now it is WWIII and the burning of the Earth and the deaths of 2/3 of the people on Earth in WWIII and its aftermath. If this is the year, then on Tishri 3 there will be a great shaking (earthquake?) and 21 days later a nuclear missile will be launched from Shinar (near Basra, Iraq by Iran) toward Yerushalayim. (Daniel 10:4 and Zechariah chapter 5).
4. FYI: Iran is not an "Arab" country

5. The myth of a Jewish nation without Judasim
Sebastian Dimwitti ,   Israel   (09.11.18)
is evaporating very quickly. No Judaism = No Jews. It's as simple as could be. For the past 200 years, this charade has appeared somewhat successful and has fooled many. But, we are seeing this absurd phenomenon coming to its logical conclusion. The seculars can continue barking against the Orthodox all they wish, but time is quite clearly on the side of the observant Jews who are growing their populations and are REMAINING Jewish. All the contentious issues in Israel will resolve themselves when, in a few years down the line, the non-Jewish offspring of coming generations will simply not be interested in a Jewish state, or the Kotel, or how much power the Chief Rabbinate wields.
The sand in the hourglass is running out for the multitude of uncommitted, unobservant Jews. Sad, but true.
6. after the holocaust
Larry ,   LA (formerly)   (09.18.18)
after the holocaust destroyed so much Jews and now we have the liberal lefties who think being a Jew is to be an antisemite, to hate Israel and marry non Jews.

How low have some of these Jews sunken and after the holocaust too.

Either learn the lesson of history that it was the assimilation and running away from G-d that brought the holocasut or else we will have another holocaust....
