Hey, look here. It's true! - I can't believe it. - Wait, let me see. There has to be a catch.

Jewish singers make better rockstars

Imagine a peaceful land for Jews. It already exists and has for a while. It even has an official website (eao.ru).

It is called the JAO or Jewish Autonomous Oblast (Евре́йская автоно́мная о́бласть or Yevreyskaya avtonomnaya oblast in Russian). Its Yiddish name is ייִדישע אװטאָנאָמע געגנט‎ or yidishe avtonome Gegent). It is a federal subject of Russia located in the Russian Far East.

It was created to welcome all Jews for immediate residency, citizenship, family raising, with an abundance of land to create a Jewish paradise on earth without having to launch a genocide on anyone.

It borders Khabarovsk Krai and Amur Oblast in Russia and Heilongjiang Province in China.

Its administrative center is the town of Birobidzhan. As of the 2010 Russian Census, JAO's population was 176,558 people or 0.1% of the total population of Russia.

Boycott, Divest, and Sanction Israel! (JVP)

Judaism is practiced by only 0.2% of the population of the JAO. Article 65 of the Constitution of Russia provides that the JAO is Russia's only autonomous oblast. It is one of two official Jewish territories in the world, the other being the very troublesome non-state of Israel.

 

Sadly by 2010, according to data provided by the Russian Census Bureau, there were only 1,628 Jews remaining in the JAO (less than 1% of the population), while ethnic Russians made up 92.7% of the JAO population. Come on, people, let's get with it. Here's are chance: Zionism today! More
