  1) How far back do we go with origin.  Go back far enogh and everybody is in
the same nation.

  2) Is Yiddish the Jewish language, or Hebrew?  Alot of Jews don't speak
Heberew (at least, not any better than my German, which is as close to not at
all as you can get).

  Wait, hold it.  A Christian faction gets in trouble it is persecution, a
muslim faction gets wiped out by the millions and they deserved it?

  It is happening for many religions in those places.  Why do you insist this is
especially against the JWs?  A friend of mine who went to China was informed by
the customs officer that if he was caught talking about God he would be arrested
and deported.  They didn't even bother asking him his religion.
