WHO ARE THE JEWS

Hope you know the also have the best ammunitions you can think of? How about their soldiers? They are one of best. The Jews are rated as the best educated people oh my God this people are really blessed by God himself .. Let's talk about their religion and etc
JUDAISM is the religion of the Jews and there has been an estimate of 14 million followers of the Jewish fate worldwide. Research have proven that Jews are concentrated in three countries which is the:
"United States (six million), Israel (3.7 million), and the Soviet Union (2.5 million). Other nations with significant Jewish populations are France (650 thousand), Great Britain (400 thousand), Canada (300 thousand), Argentina (300 thousand), and Brazil (150 thousand)"
Judaism is a religion that is believes in one God, research have proven that Judaism is the root to many eastern religions today.
The major believe of the Jews is centered on G-d (creator of the whole universe) who made covenant with them through their forefathers Abraham Issac and Jacob, to keep them as his selected people and make them the best among other nations in as much as the obey him and obey his commandments. The Jewish people have been recorded at all times as G-d's specially "chosen people" even though G-d is the creator of all mankind.
The Jewish religion "Judaism" is decentralized there is nothing like Pope or other central decision makers, each Jewish congregation run their affairs which is sometimes led by a rabbi. There are three groups of Judaism which are (Orthodox,Conservative, Reform, and Reconstructionist) this groups are all centered on there Jewish religious book called the "TORAH"
Jewish people worship in the synagogues where the offer prayers to God and read the bible(Torah)
