Israel doesn't just contain Jews, despite what they sometimes want to project. People from Israel could be Christian or Muslim or something else. What you have to understand is the differences between Semitic and Jewish.
No actually you do not. Both are claims of "I am better than you because of" making that distinction allows them to move the goal posts.
Race or religion and claiming special treatment by proxy of such still amounts to setting up social pecking orders. It is a comic book reflection of our real evolutionary group survival.
I will only say that the Hebrews were the first to successfully market a monotheistic God. No not the first attempt, but the first to be successfully marketed for that time. Christianity and Islam simply are splinter sects of the God of Abraham. But none of them are races.
