All I know is that I'm an American who happens to be white, with no idea of what ethnicity I should be carrying a torch for.
Your blood, who you are and where you come from - all those identy constituents are very important. Jews know this - that's why they were able to preserve their culture against all odds throughout thousands of years. Thanks to that they felt distinct and proud of their heritage and influenced much bigger, stronger but less ethnically conscious nations. I must say I admire them for that very much.
