Approximately 100,000 Jews served in the German army during World War I. Many of these soldiers were motivated by a sense of patriotism and loyalty to Germany, despite facing antisemitism. The contributions of Jewish soldiers were significant, and around 12,000 Jews were awarded military honors for their service. This participation challenged the prevailing stereotypes of Jews at the time and highlighted their role in the German military.

Did more Jews or Germans die in World War 2?

The question seems rather odd, as the war was not fought between Germans and Jews ... However, the number of Germans who were killed in World War 2 is estimated at about 7.2 million, and the number of Jews killed at about 6 million. However, I really do not see the relevance of the comparison.

Were the Japanese and the Jews allies in World War 2?

With the exception of a Jewish Resistance, the Jews did not play a fighting role in WWII. There were obviously Jews fighting for each country, but not as a nation such as Israel. Even if they did, they wouldn't have been allied with the Japanese because the Japanese were allied with the Germans who were responsible for the Holocaust.


What did the Jews have to with World War 1?

Jews had nothing terribly important to do with World War I. The war was not fought about Jews (even though Jews were part of every involved army from a major power other than the Ottoman Empire). Jews often fought valiantly for their homelands, as diverse as American Jews fighting for the US and German Jews fighting for the German Empire or Second Reich. The only "Jewish" part of the war was the presence of Jewish militias in Ottoman Palestine who assisted the British in liberating that area from Ottoman control.
