Jews are:

A follower of the Judaic religion, also known as Judaism.

Jews are not (except for SOME cases:

Always Israeli
Curly haired, big nosed, and cheap
Constantly pointing out anti-semitism

Okay?

And also, recently a swastika was painted on a Jewish temple. I'm a Jew. That hurt. So please stop making anti-semitic (or anti-JEWISH, I realize that a semite is anyone from the middle east, but IT HAS COME TO MEAN anti-Jewish) comments, because, dude, it hurts.

A self sufficient people. They are blamed for mostly everything bad that ever happened ever because Jews are easy scapegoats.

An example would be in the middle ages when the Bubonic Plague (Black Plague) was rampant Jews were the only demographic that wasn't getting it due to the fact that all Jews living where the plague was lived in close knit healthy communities differing from the peasants living in squalor usually getting it. That of course was blamed on the Jews.

Another example would be the Holocaust. Hitler was a pathetic man with one testicle and hate in his heart. He decided to take out his anger on the Jews, gays, gypsies and others by winning the hearts of the easily impressed German populace with his moderate speaking skills. Jews did nothing wrong to anybody and everyone smart knows this.
"Awe man I failed math for the year, it must be that slimy Jew David Goldstein's fault.."

Ignorant man 1: "You know that Jew family across the street?"
Ignorant man 2: "Yeah they seem like nice people.. But they are plotting our downfall as we speak.."

A person of Jewish faith or of Jewish race. Most Jews are in fact not religious but are Jews by blood. Most actors and filmmakers in the US are of Jewish decent. Common Jewish names include Cohen, Levi/Levine, Isaac and anything which contains 'Gold', 'Ruben', 'Silver', 'Stein' or 'Berg'. Famous Jews change their names to be more accepted.
Just a handful of examples: Steven Spielberg, Oliver Stone, Robert De Niro, Dustin Hoffman, Bob Dillon, Woody Allen, Ben Stiller, Billy Crystal, Daniel Day Lewis, David Schwimmer, Lisa Kudrow, Sarah Jessica Parker...
