Is this not true of all people who are not Christians? Why single out one group for the label? In general, I'd agree with you that no one group should be singled out based on genetics. But in this case, it's because that same group is already singled out by the opposition and granted a "free pass", redemptively and eschatologically (or at least given a reduced/commuted sentence), for offenses which would rightly incur God's wrath when committed by other groups.

That's not my understanding.
Dispensational theology posits a future "unfreezing" of the Jewish nation. But until that time there are as spiritually dead as any other unbeliever.
No one can be saved by merely keeping the Law apart from faith in Christ.
