The Ottomans had positive relations with the Jewish communities (especially relative to contemporaneous civilizations) but had no influence on the Israelites.

Who destroyed the second temple in Jerusalem?

General Titus (later to become Emperor Titus) of the Roman Empire supervised the Destruction of the Second Great Temple of the Jews. It is important to note that these people were not "Israelis" since that term refers to the citizens of a modern country. They were "Jews", "Judeans", or "Israelites" depending on which term you prefer.


Why don't Jews of today call themselves Israelites?

Answer 1Israelite is an English term, first of all, second, people who live in the modern state of Israel are called Israelis, the rough equivalent of Israelite. Third, there are a few different names given to Jews in Hebrew, which include: Am Israel (the people of Israel) yehudim (Jews), and a few others.Answer 2In Hebrew, the term for "Israelite" is "Ben Yisrael" and the term for "Israeli" is "Yisraeli", so this is not an issue of linguistic differences. The main reason that Jews call themselves Jews as opposed to Israelites is that the Kingdom of Israel split in into Israel and Judea. Israel was overrun by the Assyrians and resulted in those tribes of Israelites being absorbed into the general Assyrian populace. As a result, the remaining Israelites were the Judeans, whence the term "Jew" comes from. Since the Jews are only a fraction of the total Israelites, they abandoned the broader name.
