Soros being a prime example. There are some Jews that could give a rats ass about Israel, they are “progressive” jews like Bernie Sanders who believe that if Israel did not exist there would be no issues in the Middle East..and you have the Jews who dont care about Israel at all, their #1 priority is abortion

Yes, there were. There were at least 150,000 half and quarter Jewish men that served in Hitler's Wehrmacht in WWII. I recently read the book "Hitler's Jewish Soldiers: The Untold Story of Nazi Racial Laws and Men of Jewish Descent in the German Military" by Bryan Mark Rigg. Got it used on Amazon. It started out as a research paper for college, and it ended up as a book because he found so much info, tracked down those that served, went through German archives, etc. It's very well documented, and sourced.

There were plenty of different reasons for them to serve. Some didn't see themselves as Jewish, despite having a mother or father, grandmother or grandfather that were full Jews. They considered themselves German, not Jewish. And many half and quarter Jews were discriminatory against Eastern European Jews.

Some served in an attempt to make things easier for their Jewish ancestors. And there were plenty of instances when their commanding officers overlooked Hitler's order to discharge half and quarter Jews from their ranks, simply because they couldn't do without their expertise. There were also half and quarter Jewish Doctors that worked at concentration camps.

Hitler took away the citizenship of all Jews, half and quarter too, so they served in the military despite no longer being citizens of Germany. At the time, most of them believed that Hitler would give them back their citizenship after Germany won the war, but in reality, Hitler had more or less decided to get rid of them too in the end. Those that served realized in later years that Hitler wouldn't have let them remain alive.
