    I didn't know these were things people hide...
    I think it is more things that it are meaningless to even know.

    Why? will you cheer for a fighter because he is a jew?
    or not root for someone just because of his/her religion?

    SOmethings are better left out!:redface:

    I may be wrong and I apologise if I offend anyone by just assuming .... but I've always wondered if Jake and Joe Ellenberger were, because of their name?

    If there are, they need to be identified somehow. Maybe tattoos?

    Serious question... What is a "Jew from Jew land"? That's not really an apt description of people who are considered racially Jewish...
