When the Gestapo investigated Hitler's background, on orders from der Führer himself, they came back and reported that they couldn't either prove or disprove the claim that Hitler's grandfather was Jewish. If you think about the level of political pressure they must have been under to disprove the rumours of a Jewish grandfather, the guy who wrote the final report must have had balls the size of baseballs, made of pure steel.

Under Jewish tradition, "Jewishness" is only inherited from the mother, not the father, so according to the Jews themselves, having a Jewish grand father does not make you a Jew.

Its all bullshit of course. We're all mongrel half breeds, and the more people witter on about "pure blood" and "race traitors", the more likely they are to be shocked if and when they get a DNA test.

I personally don't believe in Jewish race.

In my opinion a religion is not a race. But that's just me.

In my opinion a religion is not a race.

In the case of Judaism, both the religion and ethnic group are intertwined. Jews are not unique in this, they are (in the west) merely the most well-known, influential and long-lasting example out of many -- probably due to Judaism's unique role in the invention of Christianity, and Christians' love/hate relationship with the Jews.

Yeah here's the problem with Jews claiming to be a race.
