I prefer the Biblical method for differentiating between a good and bad Jewish Person. it also applies to everyone else.
There were Jews who had faith in God and Moses and waited patiently at the base of Mount Sini. And hen there were Jews who lost faith in God and rejected him and built and worshiped the "Golden Calf". The Group that had Faith in God went on to the promised land of Isreal with the Ten Commandments as law. The "Golden calf" group had God's law thrown at them, opening up the Ground and sending them all into the pit of fire.
Those of you who do not understand the deep meaning of Moses and the Ten Commandments story will forever be lost in Stormfag simpleton land thinking every Jew is evil. Some Jews accept the responsibility of Gods promise to Abraham and there are some Jews who reject it.
I vaguely recall some event about 2,000 years ago where a bunch of jews stopped calling themselves jews because someone said something? I don't remember. Maybe it's in the Bible.
My point is that God is sorting the sheep from the goats. The sheep follow the Shepherd.
Jesus came to fulfill the law not up end it. While we follow the shepherd, it is not up to us to cast Judgement on a group of people who have special relationship with God. How God handles his promise vs. Jesus fulfillment of it is not something any one of us should get in the middle of.
Read the Bible. The "special relationship" God has with the Jews is compared to a husband married to a cheating prostitute, a master to servants who have killed his heir, etc... God will bring the jews back AFTER they have repented and become clean from their sins, and the Gentiles will already be righteous living in their land.
Your not wrong, but that wasn't his point. I agree with him that we cannot take judgment into our hands on people who have sinned against God; that is His perogative. We can fight a war but we cannot assume to take His vengeance on anyone.
