the question of jewish people fighting for the south and the reasons why. Knowing that there were jewish people who fought for the south, reason(s) notwithstanding, now I want to know why outside of the pure patriotism and self serving reason(s).....I realize they were merchants who did not want to raise the suspicions and ire of their neighbors as one reason, yet something tells me there are deeper reasons for them to kill others in defense of racist hate......don't get me wrong, ....in this case I am just trying to understand motivation outside of patriotism.....it's something like my questions surrounding ben carson, omarosa manigault, katrina pierson being vocal and active supporters of a racist who hates black people.

Their reasons outside of obvious hate of their own color projected onto black people is a burning question I must find answers to, just to understand the traitorous mind...to a ALL that is decent and reasonable. Any traitor to right and decency is a complicated many layered individual. We can see that today multiplied by the millions that voted for their leader, the traitor in the WH imitating a potus.

Whether you see my question as an attempt to make just a point is irrelevant to me, it is query into the minds of traitor to all right and decent that human beings should never stop trying to attain. Yet it seems that quest is at a standstill and regressing back to the caves of early ancestors of some.
