JTF,
Jews, real Jews, were handed a huge responsibility when Moses handed them the 10 Commandments. It wasn’t to just passively obey the Commandments but to go out and civilise the world. Jesus is the final manifestation of the Jewish purpose, to change humanity.
Zionists believe that this change can be manifest through violence. Most Jews disagree.
The goal of all judeo-christians should be to make the world a better place, by changing humans from beasts into rational men.
Winston Churchill said it best…
[i]"The conflict between good and evil which proceeds unceasingly in the breast of man nowhere reaches such intensity as in the Jewish race. The dual nature of mankind is nowhere more strongly or more terribly exemplified…
And it may well be that this same astounding race may at the present moment be in the actual process of producing another system of morals and philosophy, as malevolent as Christianity was benevolent, which, if not arrested, would shatter irretrievably all that Christianity has rendered possible. It would almost seem as if the gospel of Christ and the gospel of Antichrist were destined to originate among the same people; and that this mystic and mysterious race had been chosen for the supreme manifestations, both of the divine and the diabolical."[/i]

Of course Henry Ford warned back in 1920 that Bolshevism was coming to America – it showed up in a repackaged form called neoconservatism…
[i]"It is a well-established fact that many of the early luminaries of neoconservatism (most famously Irving Kristol [Bill Kristol’s father] in the 1940’s, a more recent famous example being David Horowitz) came from Marxist backgrounds, and that neoconservatism (like Marxism itself) began and continues to be largely a phenomenon of Jewish intellectualism.
In the early part of the 20th century, Marxism attracted a disproportionate pool of Jewish recruits for a number of obvious reasons. There are a number of complex psychological and social reasons for the attraction, all of which largely stem from the fact that Marxist internationalism is an ideology which by its very nature finds disciples among a rootless, anti-religious urban intelligentsia."[/i]

I think the question remains, are they really Jews?[/quote]
Judaism lends itself to atheism. Because it is highly ritualized, many young people turn away from it and its teachings. Most of the Jews who became Communists/Marxists were actually atheists, as you point out. Are they still Jews? Technically yes. (I am technically a Jew myself, though I don’t practice.)
The message in Judaism is to make the world moral, a better place. I don’t think Jews who start wars for profit or initiate violence against others are truly following Judaism.
Kind of like how a lot of Muslims are NOT terrorists…
BTW: You bring up a lot of thought-provoking stuff! Good posts!
