Some Jews have prospered there, but it's a stone cold fact that there are many less Jews in Europe today than there were 70 years ago. Probably better to break it down by country -- Jews have done okay in England, not so well in Poland, Russia, and Germany.

LOL
The classic confusion of causation with correlation.
70 years?

Doesn't that pretty much match the rise of Nazism and the holocaust?
Think there might be a connection? And is or is not Israel closer to Europe than the United States?
Israel was filled by refuges from the immediate continents.

The US is almost the same size as Europe and was untouched by the Nazi solution.
Try analyzing the issue between the 7th and 17th centuries.

Yes, it does. That was my point. As for the period between the 7th and 17th centuries, Europe was often an unfriendly place for Jews.
