Sadly you are not informed about the Jewish community and its efforts to help people of all faiths...in Los Angeles there is the Shriners Hospital which helps physically handicapped children...there is the City of Hope which helps victims of cancer in a two fold way...treating patients and doing research. Dr`s Sabin and Salk gave us the polio vaccine...now great work is being done in Israel for MS sufferers....The Magen David Adom sends humanitarians all over the world to help people in need from catastrophic events..many times their help is refused by hatefilled nations...I see no help coming from other countries,except the U.S., to aid Jews who have suffered from islamic terrorism. Those of us who are informed about the British know their history in "Palestine" and how they treated the Jews. In closing it is important to remember that in Judaism it is considered a mitzvah to do good for your fellow man...what do Catholics call it?
