What is your opinion on Jews?

I'm pro-Jew. While I'm born and raised Catholic, my father is Jewish. So to me, hating Jews for their religion is like hating my own father.

Side note: one of the perks of having a Jewish dad meant we got more presents around the holiday season :P Even if they usually weren't very big presents, it was still cool.
 
I like Jews, never understood the Jewish conspiracy bullshit. Honestly the Jews have been treated like shit for centuries for no reason. Any people who can fight off multiple enemies and win repeatedly is good in my book.
 
I look at the Nobel laureates winners and the Jews have won 197 of them, while compromising .02% of the world population.

That's a tough pill to swallow.
Well Obama got a peace prize just for having a snazzy marketing campaign and then bombed the hell out of Yemen and Syria because his Saudi paymasters told him to so I don't put much stock in those awards.

I'm with @AnOminous that it sucks you can't criticize Israel for their bullshit without being called anti-semitic. It also seems to be an American political team sport thing: if you're an Islam apologist you have to hate the Israelis, if you don't like fundy Muslim expansion you have to like Israel...
 
As individuals: Amazing conversationalists, usually wonderful to do business with, funny, thoughtful, and JAPs are pretty good in bed.

As a race/people/group: Hyper-defensive. Xenophobic. I guess I understand, but it gets old.

The peace prize is a separate thing. I hate to separate things, but Muslims have won seven for peace, two for Literature, one for Sciences and two for Chemistry.

Having said that, I really wish we did nothing in the Middle East or Africa. It's a nest of snakes and we aren't really good about untangling ourselves.

Better to spend our energies in forwarding humanity, such as fusion research which is about as long as we've been involved in that cluster fuck of a world.
 
On a note of more personal experience, I used to live in a neighborhood that had a high Jewish population. The delis are top notch and many of the young raven-haired ladies are possessed of some very nice titty-cleavage. Also no matter how many Jews I spoke to not a single one ever attempted to convert me or suicide-bomb me, so that was nice.
 
Moe, Larry, and Curley were Jewish. Many entertainers whose work I enjoy are also Jewish. The Jewish people I know are good people. I judge people as individuals, and not as a group. I have lived long enough to understand that every human being is capable of the highest good, and the basest evil.

Seeking converts is actually strongly disapproved of, and while they don't actively prohibit conversion, they do absolutely nothing to make it easy, and will generally at the very least make very sure a convert is sincere before progressing. There are some exceptions to this, like when you have a mixed marriage, especially when the wife is the Gentile, or when someone's heritage is in question, where they've basically been raised Jewish but for whatever reason don't or might not qualify halachically.

(This is why that Bex idiot is neither Jewish nor even a credible sincere convert.)
