It's estimated that there are 13 million jews in the world. By contrast there are 2.129 Billion christians, 1.476 Billion Muslims, 1.162 Billion Atheists/Non religious. Even Buddhists have 708 million (Though they claim 1.6 Billion.)
For such a small amount of followers (though you could say Jews are more of a race than a religion), how is it that they play such a major role in world politics?
Is it because Christianity and Islam have their roots in Judaism?
Is it because they tend to live in very close nit communities?
Is it a religion, a race, or a political movement? All three?
