If a Jew is all that stuff you mention, you`ll find out that there are few Jews even in Israel, and that those are either parasites of the rest, or criminals who just care for these superficial aspects you mention disregarding other more important things, etc. Moreover, these `important` traditional things, you mention should be left to the conscience of the individuals and not to the scrutiny of others. On the contrary, respect for the regular law and the rest of humans is a matter of the society hygiene, of reciprocity of accepting others like they are, to be accepted as you are. You propose a kind of hypocrisy that exchange real moral values for superficial rituals.
