Jews refuse to give up hope

Ugh. The Economist crafted a small infographic showing the trends of Jews throughout the world. Why? Because someone has a keep track of their migratory patterns to make sure they aren’t ruining wonderful countries like Moldova or Georgia. And can you guess where most of them are? (Hint: America) (Other Hint: Israel).

What can we learn from this chart that we didn’t already know? There are more and more Jews, and no one can forcibly stop them from breeding together. (Although, if you believe this study, world Jewry has declined by 300,000 in the past 30 years.)

More importantly, if you live outside the US and Israel, you should probably move. Those places are icky, full of Jew-haters. Unlike America and Israel.

Also, I’m not sure if this includes ‘half Jews’, but it shouldn’t because they aren’t real Jews I don’t care what Hitler has told you.

I can’t wait to read a stupid opinion piece on some other Jewish blog lamenting how Judaism is in decline or how Jews need to bone more Jews or the exact opposite of that. I hate people who try to deconstruct statistics – they are all idiots and too many of them (read: ‘good’ at math, terrible at critical analytical thinking) are prominent, respected Jewish people. Beautiful, beautiful mathematically gifted idiots.
