Does Israel dumb Jews down ? ?

Question

when I went to Israel I couldnt tell a jew from an arab and not because the jews rubbed off on the other semites. How did the modern sophisticated and cultural jews we knew from places like Germany Holland and New York turn into what Israelis are today ?

This is not to imply that jews are better off without israel, or that they shouldnt go there, or dissolve israel.

Answer 1

No, you got it wrong. Israel dumbs foreigners down so they can't tell the difference.
