Besides Israel, the United States has the largest number of Jews in the world, right?

That's right. The second largest number is indeed the United States.

According to the statistics of Jewish organizations, the total number of Jews in the world in 2007 was about 6,543.8+03.2 million, of which 5.4 million settled in Israel, 5.3 million lived in the United States, and the rest were scattered around the world.

/kloc-At the end of 0/9 century, thousands of Jews fled here due to the intensification of persecution in Eastern Europe, most of whom went to the United States, Canada and Western Europe. By 1924, * * * about two million Jews had immigrated to the United States, because the attitude of American society towards the Jewish community was relatively more tolerant than that of Eastern Europe. The persecution of Jews in Europe finally reached its peak in Nazi Germany, and a massacre of about 6 million Jews took place, which almost destroyed all the cultural and historical deposits of Jews in Europe in 2000.

The State of Israel, founded in 1948, is the first Jewish state established in nearly 2000 years after the destruction of Jerusalem by Rome, which artificially revived the official spoken Hebrew. However, the location of Israel's founding is in the Palestinian area, which intensifies the conflict with Arab Palestinians who have settled there for a long time, makes the Middle East a hot spot in the world, and puts nearly 900,000 Jews who originally lived in Arab countries in trouble. By the beginning of 2 1 century, the United States and Israel were the main Jewish settlements. Before the founding of Israel, the proportion of Palestinian Arabs in Palestinian areas accounted for the vast majority, while Jews only accounted for 6% in 1948. Due to the war and the expulsion of the Israeli government, by 2009, Jews in Israel accounted for 76% of the total population, 19% were Arabs and 5% were other nationalities.
