Problem with your question is you do not read the bible properly.
Israelies can be deamed as all the people upon this earth and not the state of Israel. That is why he said Many will come from the East and From the west to sit at the table of Abraham, And he said the children of the kingdome will be cast into outter darkeness. The problem is many people think that Israel is the chosen city, AND that is so wrong that countries time is done it is past. people need not just to read scripture but to contemplate upon the words within. He said this to the woman at the well YOU KNOW not what you worship. And i say it to you YOU KNOW NOT WHAT YOU WORSHIP. Seek and you will find many lies that many preachers tell you. Peace my friend

Of what worth is this life that passes away?

God sees beyond this life. The Holocaust is something that eventually led to the return of Israel, which is prophesied.

Additionally, God wiped out the entire generation of people whom He saved from Egypt because these people worshipped the golden calf and complained non-stop, lamenting their condition despite God having done so much for them. What this tells you is that there are 'cleansing' periods.

Ultimately, only the CHOSEN are left, and by that I mean those who can enter the kingdom of God. Its a sieving process.

Sometimes wicked men are permitted to do evil things so that in the Final Judgment, their judgment is not open to debate (unless they repent). In my opinion, Satan was trying very hard to slow down the spiritual progress of the world in its progress toward the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, and he was trying to take his revenge on the wonderful Jewish people for helping to bring about the Atonement of Jesus Christ in the first place. The Resurrection will still happen for all who ever lived on the earth, and all of those who have died in horrible ways will also receive extra blessings, in my opinion. Have a happy day, and I send you a gummy bear.

Jews are Chosen in the sense that G-d chose Jews to witness to the nations that there is only one G-d. And in every generation there arises someone who tries to annihilate the Jewish people - and they always fail. that also shows the Glory of G-d.

Once the Israelites rejected the sacrifice of God's son's perfect human life on their behalf, God rejected them as his chosen people and grafted in a group of people which the Bible calls "spiritual Israelites" in their place. They are the ones who are doing his will on earth at this time and they are the channel he is working through to save the rest of mankind.

As a people God chose them so that His majesty and glory would be made manifest to the rest of the world. But, like all other peoples, they (the Jewish people) are held to the same standards that God holds all peoples to.

Holocaust, the almost complete destruction of Jews in Europe by Nazi Germany and its collaborators during World War II (1939-1945). The leadership of Germany’s Nazi Party ordered the extermination of 5.6 million to 5.9 million Jews (see National Socialism). Jews often refer to the Holocaust as Shoah (from the Hebrew word for “catastrophe” or “total destruction”). The word holocaust derives from the Greek holo (whole) and caustos (burned) and originally referred to a burnt offering, or a religious sacrifice that is totally consumed by fire.

As Nazi forces conquered many of the countries of Europe during World War II (1939-1945), millions of Jews were rounded up and slaughtered outright or imprisoned in concentration camps, where they were killed or died from starvation and disease. By the end of the war, between 5.6 million and 5.9 million Jewish men, women, and children had died at the hands of the Nazis.

The Holocaust was the worst genocide in history. Those who carried it out methodically created the means to efficiently round up and kill millions of people. The Holocaust led to the establishment of international laws against human rights violations.

Jews were not the only victims of the Nazis during World War II. The Nazis also imprisoned and killed people who opposed their regime on grounds of ideology; Roma (Gypsies); Germans who were mentally impaired or physically disabled; homosexuals; and captured Soviet soldiers.

The Shoah was a state-instituted massacre of millions of people, not something biblically ordained.

8 Then God said to Noah and to his sons with him: 9 "I now establish my covenant with you and with your descendants after you 10 and with every living creature that was with you—the birds, the livestock and all the wild animals, all those that came out of the ark with you—every living creature on earth.

Genesis 9:8-10 (New International Version)

10 and with every living creature that was with you—the birds, the livestock and all the wild animals, all those that came out of the ark with you—every living creature on earth. 11 I establish my covenant with you: Never again will all life be cut off by the waters of a flood; never again will there be a flood to destroy the earth."

12 And God said, "This is the sign of the covenant I am making between me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come: 13 I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. 14 Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, 15 I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life.
