Ummm... well, I was raised Jewish and I remain Jewishly involved, yet I don't really feel any "stronger" than anyone else. However, I do feel extra motivated by my mother, who is Jewish, and has always pushed me quite hard to succeed, and those are the same values that her parents ingrained her with, and their parents did so before them. Saying it has anything to do with God is a cop-out. It's a cultural thing- sorta like the Protestant work ethic.

Of course bolstered by M16's, F16's and other weapons by the US :)

I have a friend who was fighting for the Israelies in the '73 war. He was using WWI Checz mousers till the US supplied M16's!

The US made Israel strong (or stronger). Is the US god?

(and there is a saying: In all religious battles, God is on both sides!).
