Right, but just like an "American" is understood to mean a citizen of the United States and NOT any citizen of North and South America, the word "Jew" is the English word we use to describe those from the Kingdom of Judah.

Sure, and I don't have any probem with that, as long as we all know it is not historically correct.

The Vikings (probably) discovered America a thousand years ago. That doesn't mean that Minnesota football team cannot call itself Vikings. But that also does NOT mean those football players are REAL Vikings, even though some of their ancestors may have been real Vikings.
