I lived in a very Jewish neighborhood for quite a while. A lot of first and second generations from Israel. And, in my experience, (and only my experience) I'd say that pushing the idea of being oppressed, and using the Holocaust in support, is absolutely a part of the culture. I've seen it. I'm also aware of how the "us vs. them" plays out. It drives the religion. I actually got a flyer on my car once encouraging "us" to only work with each other. Blew my mind.
That doesn't mean some practicing Jews can't deal with people on an individual basis. But it takes some time. Hasidic and most Orthodox Jews? They want NO part of anyone who isn't like them.
I'm an atheist and give two shakes about the religious component. But I also know how I was treated and viewed as a non-Jew. I was the 'enemy.'
Say that out loud? You're anti-Semitic. That's the strategy. And it's bullshit.
