Israel is a country and Jews' a racial group.

Jew is a religion. Ashkenazi, Sefardi, Mizrahi are racial groups perhaps.

Jews are also considered an ethnicity, not only a religion. There are nonreligious ethnic Jews and there are people who follow Judaism but who are not ethnic Jews.

I wouldn't consider "Jew" an ethnicity more than "Asian" -- several different ethnicities under one label.

Fair enough. Point is, it's not only a religious label
