No passado sempre houve aquele ódio à religião judaica, aos judeus, mas sinceramente só tenho de admirar por estas pessoas pela sua inteligência, desafiar o governo/sociedade, ultrapassando grandes desafios pela frente. Basicamente arriscaram as próprias vidas para contribuir algo para a sociedade, que graças a essas celebridades como: Albert Einstein, Levi Strauss, Freud, Rothschild, Haber etc que o mundo está mais desenvolvido.
Vale a pena ler o livro, para quem quer saber mais sobre como a religião judaica influenciou a sociedade e no mundo e o porquê o ódio aos judeus que foi progredindo ao longo dos anos.

Foram em tempos apenas 0,25% da população mundial, o povo mal amado que marca a humanidade de forma profunda, e não me refiro à razão mais óbvia e religiosa. As várias personagens históricas deste povo surpreendem-nos pela tamanha inteligência, mas também pela ambiguidade interna de ser ou não ser, ou melhor de se assumir ou não assumir, como Judeu.
Estou a amar! Que mais não seja pela passagem do meu pai por este país onde privou com estas pessoas, que não são mais do que isso, de pessoas, que tanto admirava e onde ministrou a sua tese em tabaco enquanto regente agrícola.

The book is great, I gave 4 stars because he totally forgot one big man, not Jewish, Portuguese, who saved thousand and thousand of life’s by the WW2, Aristides de Sousa Mendes, Portuguese consul in Bordeaux.
