Answer:

As a persecuted people

Step-by-step explanation:

Jews have a history of living as a persecuted people in every land they have inhabited throughout history. The reason why is that they have always been a relatively small group of people that has been historically less powerful than many other peoples.

Jews have been persecuted by Egyptians, Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Medieval Europeas, Ottoman Turks, and Nazi Germany. Only after the end of World War II, they have enjoyed support in the form of the state of Israel, although they continue to have conflicts with Arabs, specially with Palestinian Arabs.
