	jews in the United States are a social construct, a hodge-podge of [[Turkic]], [[Mongol]], [[Slavic]], [[Germanic]], [[Berber]], [[Arab]], [[Negroid]] and minor [[Israelite]] influences, all mixed together and united by the hate-filled, rabidly chauvinist screed of the [[Babylonian Talmud]], which teaches them to exploit and persecute [[non-jews]]. jews are a highly privileged caste in the United States; taking advantage of docile [[Masonic]] and Anglo-[[Protestant]] "toleration", they became the most powerful ethnic identity in the United States by the [[1960s]], but had been accumilating considerable power before then. jews are highly overrepresented in [[business]], [[media]], [[finance]], [[academia]], [[higher education]] institutions and the realms of [[journalism]]. They often use their position of social influence to spitefully attack and demean [[European Americans]], including the defective [[WASP]]s (the previous ruling caste) who were stupid enough to offer them a haven of toleration. jews bring hatred onto the United States and it's gentile population by their rabid support of the [[Israeli state]], which is carrying out a slow motion ~~Holocaust~~ against the [[Palestinians]]; this policy is very unpopular worldwide and has brought about [[Mohammedan]] terrorism.		jews in the United States are a social construct, a hodge-podge of [[Turkic]], [[Mongol]], [[Slavic]], [[Germanic]], [[Berber]], [[Arab]], [[Negroid]] and minor [[Israelite]] influences, all mixed together and united by the hate-filled, rabidly chauvinist screed of the [[Babylonian Talmud]], which teaches them to exploit and persecute [[non-jews]]. jews are a highly privileged caste in the United States; taking advantage of docile [[Masonic]] and Anglo-[[Protestant]] "toleration", they became the most powerful ethnic identity in the United States by the [[1960s]], but had been accumilating considerable power before then. jews are highly overrepresented in [[business]], [[media]], [[finance]], [[academia]], [[higher education]] institutions and the realms of [[journalism]].

	Siporin (1990) uses the family folklore of ethnic jews to their collective history and its transformation into an historical art form. They tell us how jews have survived being uprooted and transformed. Many immigrant narratives bear a theme of the arbitrary nature of fate and the reduced state of immigrants in a new culture. By contrast, ethnic family narratives tend to show the ethnic more in charge of his life, and perhaps in danger of losing his jewishness altogether. Some stories show how a family member successfully negotiated the conflict between ethnic and American identities.<ref>Steve Siporin, "Immigrant and Ethnic Family Folklore," ''Western States jewish History'' 1990 22(3): 230–242. 0749-5471</ref>		Siporin (1990) uses the family folklore of ethnic jews to their collective history and its transformation into an historical art form.

	<blockquote> The 1993 Oslo Agreement made this split in the Jewish community official. Prime Minister Yitzak Rabin’s handshake with Yasir Arafat during the 13 September White House ceremony elicited dramatically opposed reactions among American Jews. To the liberal universalists the accord was highly welcome news. As one commentator put it, after a year of tension between Israel and the United States, “there was an audible sigh of relief from American and Jewish liberals. Once again, they could support Israel as good Jews, committed liberals, and loyal Americans.” The community “could embrace the Jewish state, without compromising either its liberalism or its patriotism”. Hidden deeper in this collective sense of relief was the hope that, following the peace with the Palestinians, Israel would transform itself into a Western-style liberal democracy, featuring a full separation between the state and religion. Not accidentally, many of the leading advocates of Oslo, including the Yossi Beilin, the then Deputy Foreign Minister, cherish the belief that a “normalized” Israel would become less Jewish and more democratic.		<blockquote> The 1993 Oslo Agreement made this split in the Jewish community official.

	However, to the hard-core Zionists in the Orthodox community and among right wing Jews, the peace treaty amounted to what some dubbed the “handshake earthquake.” From the perspective of the Orthodox, Oslo was not just an affront to the sanctity of Eretz Yisrael, but also a personal threat to the Orthodox settlers—often kin or former congregants—in the West Bank and Gaza. For Jewish ~~nationalists~~ such as Morton Klein, the president of the Zionist organization of America, and Norman Podhoretz, the editor of Commentary, the peace treaty amounted to an appeasement of Palestinian terrorism. They and others repeatedly warned that the newly established Palestinian Authority (PA) would pose a serious security threat to Israel.</blockquote></ref> this mirrored a similar split among Israelis and led to a parallel rift within the [[Israel lobby in the United States\|pro-Israel lobby]].<ref>Ofira Seliktar, "The Changing Identity of American Jews, Israel and the Peace Process," in Danny Ben-Moshe and Zohar Segev, eds. ''Israel, the Diaspora, and Jewish Identity,'' (2007) p126</ref> Abandoning any pretense of unity, both segments began to develop separate advocacy and lobbying organizations. The liberal supporters of the Oslo Accord worked through Americans for Peace Now (APN), Israel Policy Forum (IPF) and other groups friendly to the Labour government in Israel. They tried to assure Congress that American Jewry was behind the Accord and defended the efforts of the administration to help the fledgling Palestinian authority (PA) including promises of financial aid. In a battle for public opinion, IPF commissioned a number of polls showing widespread support for Oslo among the community. / In opposition to Oslo, an alliance of Orthodox groups, such as ZOA, Americans For a Safe Israel (AFSI), and the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs (JINSA) launched a major public opinion campaign. On 10 October 1993, the opponents of the Palestinian-Israeli accord, organized at the American Leadership Conference for a Safe Israel, where they warned that Israel was prostrating itself before a “an armed thug”, and predicted and that the “thirteenth of September is a date that will live in infamy”. Hard-core Zionists also criticized, often in harsh language, Prime Minister Rabin and Shimon Perez, his foreign minister and chief architect of the peace accord. With the community so strongly divided, AIPAC and the Presidents Conference, which was tasked with representing the national Jewish consensus, struggled to keep the increasingly shrill discourse civil. Reflecting these tensions, Abraham Foxman from the Jewish Anti-defamation League was forced by the conference to apologize for bad mouthing ZOA’s Klein.

U.S. Jews opposed to Oslo teamed up with Israelis "who brought their domestic issues to Washington" and together they pursued a campaign that focused most of its attention on Congress and the aid program.
