Jews frequently
shout "Anti-Semitism" when anybody says anything critical of them;
however, when organizations label their population or membership, Jews claim to
be white. They oppose adding
"Jewish" as a racial category anywhere. As a result, if you look at population
figures, it is difficult to figure out what the Jewish population is. You frequently see estimates of 2% or 3%, but
is it? Is Jewishness a race or a
religion or both? For population
figures, it has to be a race, rather than a religion, unless you are
specifically counting members of religions.
In general, people think of white people as European. Jews have lived in central and eastern Europe
for a thousand years; yet, they have refused to assimilate and have remained,
by their own declarations, Middle Eastern Semites. They insist that they are not European. And thus, I believe they insist that they are
not "white."
I began thinking
about this when looking at diversity statistics for elite universities. These days diversity is everything, and
Harvard claims to be one of the most politically correct, diverse universities
in existence. According to CollegeFacutal.com,
Harvard is one of the most diverse universities. It ranks 11th out of 2,475. Here are two of the charts from
CollegeFactual, one for undergraduates and one for faculty:

Note that neither
chart has a group called "Jewish" or "Semitic." Therefore, Harvard has clearly labeled Jewish
students and faculty as "white"
On the other hand, the Jewish organization Hillel
says 12% of the undergraduate population is Jewish, and 67% of the graduate
students are Jewish. If a total of 12%
of all undergrad Harvard students are Jewish, then about 27% of the total
"white" students are Jewish, and only about 33% of all Harvard
students are whites of European ancestry, as opposed to Semitic ancestry. If Jews make up only 2% or 3% of the US
population, then Jews are overrepresented at Harvard by several hundred
percent, and European whites, who make up about half of the US population are
seriously underrepresented. No one
really knows, because Jews refuse to be counted as Jews; therefore, they can be
Jews when they want to be, and whites when they want to be. It's dishonest and cruel, but that's what
Harvard stands for and teaches.
Because Jews refuse
to be identified as Jews except in Jewish circles (e.g., the Hillel
statistics), this same technique is used everywhere. The US Census may ask about immigration
status and whether someone is black or white, but it will not ask if someone is
Jewish. Jews won't allow it.
