There are a bit over 8 billion people in the world. 2.4 billion Christians. 1.8 billion Muslims. 1 billion Hindus. 1.4 billion in China with officially no religion. There are 15 million Jews in the world. The Jews have been persecuted for centuries. Millions were killed by Hitler and Stalin. The United Nations awarded land for Jews in Israel. They are surrounded by Arabs and have fought many wars to survive. Since Israel responded to the September 7 invasion by Hamas with many killed and hundreds killed anti-Semitism is on the rise in many countries including the U.S. There will be problems in the Middle East as long as Israel exists. Prejudice exists in many nations. Hindus in India hate minorities there with those who follow Mohammed and also the Sikhs.
