"I believe that Jews in America , at least some Jews, have little reguard for Christians, and do not stand up for Christians, even as most Christians bend over backwards to include Jews in everything..."

You didn't know the Jews I knew, then.

Years ago during Christmas these people would step up & volunteer to work both xmas eve & day so we could celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ.

I'd say such an act was pretty damned generous as well as sensitive.

...c/wouldn't you agree?

Every year the papers carry unheralded stories about Jews doing this sort of thing. Unfortunately, the Menorah story from Palm Beach has been reported on widely, while the many acts of kindness and generosity by Jews toward Christians at Christmas are buried in the back sections. I'll just have to post some articles. :)

Um, no. I volunteer to work on Ramadan and Yom Kippur. It's no big deal. I don't celebrate those, and a day at work is NORMAL behavior, not exceptional.

I agree with your sentiment. That's not all that compelling evidence, however.
