INTERESTING JEWISH FACTS
1. Lillian Friedman married Cruz Rivera. They named their baby Geraldo
Miguel Rivera.(Funny, it doesn't sound Jewish.) Since, according to Jewish
law, anyone born to a Jewish mother is Jewish, Geraldo Rivera is Jewish. As
were, among others: Fiorello Laguardia, Winston Churchill and Cary Grant, as
explained below.
2. Fiorello Laguardia's mother's name was Jacobson. His father was not
Jewish. Laguardia spoke seven languages -- including Hebrew and Yiddish -
fluently.
3. Winston Churchill's mother's name was Jenny Jerome.
4. Cary Grant's mother, Elsie, was Jewish. His father, Elias Leach, was not.
Grant's original name was Archibald Alexander Leach. (Robin Leach is his
first cousin).
5. Peter Sellers' mother, Margaret Marks, was Jewish. His father, Bill
Sellers, was Protestant. Peter's real name is Richard Henry Sellers.

covers discusses his Jewish ancestry. His real name: David Stenton Haywood
Jones.
7. Robert DeNiro's mother is Jewish; his father is not.
8. Shari Belafonte's mother is Jewish. Her father, Harry, has a Jewish
grandfather.
9. Olivia Newton John's Jewish grandfather was a Nobel Prize winning
physicist.

I enjoyed your post Brad. There is nothing wrong with being proud of where you came from. Other races/faiths could learn alot from the Jews.

Judaism isn't simply a religion, it's also a heritage. Judea was a city filled with a particular kind of people before it was a city filled with a particular kind of philosophy.

While I don't share any sort of distaste for Brad's post, I do kind of understand where Klinton is coming from. I'm Christian, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna highlight Christian achievements or modern Christian facts. That would just be self-indulgent. Exactly like the family guy episode where Seth Macfarlane just spent the entire time sucking up to Jewish people by saying, "Hey! That famous guy's Jewish! WOW! Optimus Prime's Jewish!" Are they actually flattered by this?
No, Jim is right I was a little harsh there. My point was intended to be something along the lines of how people take pride in thier hometown sportsteams...when all they've done to win whatever trophy is at stake is sit and drink beer and watch the games.
It's dreadfully tiring for people to take pride in things that have nothing to do with thier own merit....which is what I was assuming Brad was doing here. Perhaps he was not, and if not I do appologize.
From my point of view, these people were great individuals in their own right...not great Jewish people or otherwise. Just inspired individuals. I don't think it's right or fair for a group of people to lay claim to thier accomplishments as though thier dogma somehow led them to these achievements.
If my opinion is offensive in it's own right, then there's nothing I can say or do here....that is my opinion.
To return to the original post: What, no mention of Jewish SF-authors Isaac Asimov, Robert Silverberg, Harlan Ellison, Robert Bloch etc or Jewish SF-actors Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner?

Lavrenty Beria, chief of the predecessor of the KGB during Stalin's leadership over USSR, was also Jewish.
Trotskij, founder of the Red Army, was Jewish too.
But I'm surprised to read that Stalin was part Jewish, considering his anti-semitism in his last years (before he died he made the order to get rid of all Jewish doctors).

It doesn't surprise me at all. Some of the worst anti-Semites have been self hating Jews. Why anyone would hate their heritige is beyond me. I think everyone should take some pride in where they come from. There is a lot of history to this world.

November 6th, 2012: Americas new Independence Day.
One of the most frequently asked questions about the Holocaust and the Nazi party is whether Adolf Hitler was Jewish or had Jewish ancestors. The question received new media attention in May 2022 when Russia’s foreign minister claimed Hitler had Jewish blood.
Though the idea may seem preposterous to some, the question seems to stem from the remote possibility that Hitler's grandfather was Jewish. Hitler’s father, Alois, was registered as an illegitimate child with no father when born in 1837 and to this day Hitler’s paternal grandfather is unknown. In 1842, Johann Georg Hiedler married Alois’s mother. Alois was brought up in the family of Hiedler’s brother, Johann Nepomuk Hiedler. In 1876, when Alois was 39, he was made legitimate and his baptismal record annotated by a priest to register Johann Georg Hiedler as Alois’s father (recorded as Georg Hitler). Alois then assumed the surname Hitler.
In his 1953 memoir In the Face of the Gallows (published after his execution in 1946), Hitler’s lawyer Hans Frank claimed that Hitler had told him to investigate rumors of him having Jewish ancestry. Frank said Hitler showed him a letter from a nephew who threatened to reveal he had Jewish blood. Frank wrote that he found evidence that Hitler’s grandfather was Jewish and that Alois’ mother, Maria Schicklgruber, worked as a cook in the home of a wealthy Jewish family named Frankenreiter in Graz. Austria, was impregnated by a member of the family – possibly their 19-year-old son – when she was 42.
Historians dispute his account. Ian Kershaw, for example, wrote in his biography of Hitler Hubris, “A family named Frankenreiter did live there, but was not Jewish. There is no evidence that Maria Anna was ever in Graz, let alone employed by the butcher Leopold Frankenreiter.”
In fact, no Jews lived in Graz at the time. They were expelled in the 15th century and didn't return until decades after Hitler’s father was born.
On October 14, 1933, the London Daily Mirror published a picture of a gravestone in a Jewish cemetery in Bucharest inscribed with some Hebrew characters and the name Adolf Hitler, but this Bucharest Hitler could not have been the Nazi leader’s grandfather.
In 2010, the British paper The Daily Telegraph reported that a study had been conducted in which saliva samples were collected from 39 of Hitler’s known relatives to test their DNA origins and found, though inconclusively, that Hitler may have Jewish origins. The paper reported: A chromosome called Haplogroup E1b1b1 which showed up in [the Hitler] samples is rare in Western Europe and is most commonly found in the Berbers of Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia, as well as among Ashkenazi and Sephardic Jews ... Haplogroup E1b1b1, which accounts for approximately 18 to 20 percent of Ashkenazi and 8.6 per cent to 30 per cent of Sephardic Y-chromosomes, appears to be one of the major founding lineages of the Jewish population. This study, though scientific by nature, is inconclusive.
Despite the claims, Adolf Hitler was not Jewish.
I read in a 1970's Hitler biography (I forget the author and exact title) the part in the opening paragraph, about Hitler's grandfather Johan Georg Heidler being illegitimate and adopted into the Hitler family, his true father unknown and believed to be Jewish. I don't see how that part was disproven here. They determine here Hitler was not Jewish, but I think it is still possible Hitler may be of partial Jewish ancestry, just that it cannot be proven. Which if true, is one of the great ironies of history.
Not mentioned, it gets more confusing that Adof Hitler's father is Alois Hitler (an Austrian customs inspector), and had a son who was also named Alois Hitler (who mostly worked as a waiter, and unlike brother Adolf Hitler, was very friendly and personable). Hitler had many brothers and sisters and descendants who survived the war, so has a large surviving family 80 years after his death. Hitler's book Mein Kampf is estimated to have an estate value of $20 million, but no one in the family wants to claim it, and are very reluctant to do interviews about their genocidal relative. There's a 1-hour documentary that periodically runs on Newsmax titled "Uncle Hitler" that details who his surviving relatives are, and the unclaimed royalties of Mein Kamf. In any case, Adolf Hitler's alleged Jewish ancestry remains unconfirmed, but I think still not completely disproven, and still remotely possible.
George Soros is unquestionably Jewish, and yet has acted in an antisemitic way throughout his life. There's a famous 60 Minutes interview, where George Soros talks about when he was 14, and in his native Hungary, his father had split up all his children so that each was adopted into a different household to maximize the entire family's chances of surviving the Nazi Holocaust. Soros in 1944 was sent to live with and work for a man whose job in Hungary was to sell off the remaining homes and property of the Jews who were sent off to concentration camps. Soros describes this as "the happiest year of my life" in the videotaped interview. A videotaped interview the Soros/Left has been trying to suppress and erase for over 20 years.
Soros has spent a lifetime supporting pro democracy causes and definitely hates nazi’s though. And I remember not so long ago Soros had a pipe bomb mailed to him along with other liberal targets. Sent by someone all fired up by lies from the right.

That Soros reflects on the year he spent inventory-ing and selling the property of exterminated Jews as "the happiest year of my life", doesn't exactly scream humanitarian sympathy for his fellow Jews.
That Soros and his operatives have once again censored this video of his 60 minutes interview from being seen again, also doesn't speak of Soros' willingness to discuss his 60 Minutes interview, or make clear what he actually meant in his comments.
Glenn Beck 12 years ago compared Soros to "a Bond villain", a megalomaniac out to rule the world. Soros is not about humanitarian causes, he is about making billions off of others suffering, and establishing a Marxist/Globalist one-world government before he dies. He's closer to Antichrist than to humanitarian. Soros orchestrated the collapse of the British Pound, and earned a billion dollars in one day, while simultaneously bankrupting the pensions of millions of middle class Brits whose accounts were severely de-valued by that collapse. As just one example.
The tactics of orchestrated marxist revolution to collapse governments in over a dozen former Soviet republics and eastern European nations have similarly brought misery and ruin on millions. And now, having perfected those tactics of collapsing governments and replacing them with Marxist/Socialist authoritarian governments, he is bringing those same tactics to de-stabilize and overthrow the United States. Read THE SHADOW PARTY by David Horowitz and Richard Poe. Everything they described in 2006, is now happening from 2017 to present. And if not for President Trump, this country would have been overthrown by now. Fake "grassroots" organizations like Occupy Wall Street, Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and the Open Borders movement, combined with Soros-funded elected leaders at the top, in a pincer movement to crush and overwhelm the public into accepting something they think they cannot resist. Or in the words of Obama official and open Marxist revolutionary Van Jones: "Top down, bottom up, inside out."
That is not a "lifetime of pro-democracy", Soros is the opposite, he is authoritarian globalism, he is the Revolution. He is pure ruthless power, who crushes any who get in his way. The authoritarian one-world system he orchestrates becomes more unveiled, fully formed, and threatening every day. Skyrocketing gas prices. A move away from fossil fuels to electric, wind and solar power, that is far less reliable, and therefore restrictive, and will lead to rationing and a lower standard of life. A push toward digital currency and a complete lack of privacy, where the state on a whim can cut off access to your own bank account, if your political views offend them. And ultimately, an authoritarian one-world government. "Lifetime of pro-democracy causes"? Quite the opposite.
Odd that authoritarian regimes really hate him. I’ve read up on him past the conspiracy allegations that have served those authoritarians so well over the years. From Soros holocaust days… “ After the Nazi occupation of Hungary in 1944, pupils in Jewish classes (which included Soros) were sent to council offices to work as messengers for the Jewish Council. The body, also known as the Judenrat, organized the identification and registration of Jews, which ultimately led to labor and death camp deportation.
Soros was asked to send messages to people in several parts of Budapest, but Tivadar, upon reading the messages, told the then-14-year-old that they were, in essence, deportation orders to be given to a list of Jewish lawyers. Tivadar instructed his son to send the messages but to warn these people that if they followed the instructions to report to the Jewish Council, they would be deported.
Soros said: "I remember one man I went to see who told me, 'You know, I have always been a law-abiding citizen—I haven't done anything wrong—so I have no reason to disobey this order, and I am sure that nothing terrible can happen to me.'
"And when I went back and told my father about it, we had another conversation about rules, what rules you obey, and what rules you break."
After Soros delivered the messages, Tivadar told him to stop working at the council. Later during the conflict, Tivadar was able to secure identity papers and conceal the backgrounds of the family, and paid for Soros to stay with a man named Baumbach "ostensibly as his godson."
Papers for a young man named Sandor Kiss "who had been born into a Hungarian family in Romania and who had made his way to Hungary after the war stated" were given to Soros.
During that time, Soros accompanied Baumbach as he took inventory of a wealthy Jewish aristocrat, Mor Kornfeld. The book says that Soros was not involved in the confiscation of property: "Baumbach was ordered to go to the Kornfeld estate and inventory the artworks, furnishings, and other property. Rather than leave his 'godson' behind in Budapest for three days, he took the boy with him.
"As Baumbach itemized the material, George walked around the grounds and spent time with Kornfeld's staff. It was his first visit to such a mansion, and the first time he rode a horse. He collaborated with no one and he paid attention to what he understood to be his primary responsibility: making sure that no one doubted that he was Sandor Kiss."“
I’m sure he did enjoy feeling safe being in mansion and getting to ride a horse for the first time while surviving. It’s convenient for you and others to imagine he enjoyed what the nazis did to his people, what they would have done to him if they could have. It doesn’t make sense of course but he gives money to liberals so he is your enemy and that’s all you need.
