More people live in NYC than live in Israel.

Israel has fewer people in it than the US state of Virginia, and slightly more than the US state of Washington.

Just a little perspective for everybody. This is the country some of you are willing to send the entire poliboard front page into the toilet over.

More Jews, too

ETA: There are not more Jews in L.A. County.

There are approximately 6.5 million Jews in Israel, but only about 650k in the L.A. Metro.

New York has 1 million Jews, the second largest Jewish City on earth.

Tel Aviv is the largest Jewish population center with 3.2 million Jews.

There are only about 15 million or so Jews on the planet. However, they're the most representative race of people in all major disciplines, from politics to academia to entertainment.

They also just happen to be the most important people when it comes to global equilibrium.

Eh, most of the "LA" jews I know live somewhere between Laguna Beach and Dana Pt, either that or Malibu or Westlake.

That is an awful metric to use.

Why? Aren't all people equal? Equally important?

Who the hell believes that? That is a horrible ideal and massively false.

Of course not everyone is equally important.

Let's give Beverly Hills back to the Mexicans and let them slaughter the liberals who live there now. Sound good?

You obviously haven't visited the diamond district in NYC.

Hell I bet there are 15 million Hasidic Jews there alone.

Don't just post an emoji. You made the statement that every individual on the planet is equally as important as every other one.

Defend your position.

That's odd considering nearly all Jews in LA live somewhere other than those places.

Really? Where do your jews live?

My Jews live in Laguna Beach, Laguna Niguel and in Westlake.

I only threw Malibu out there because I assume some hollywood jews live there.

There is nuance to add. Those Jews that are vastly overrepresented happened to be Ashkenazi Jews. They have the highest mean IQ on the planet by a wide margin. Israeli Jews tend not to be Ashkenazi, they tend to be Mizrahi

I don't have any Jews. I'm saying that it's odd for you to mention only knowing Jews that live in places that have far fewer Jews than many others.
