Not sure why that's relevant, same could be said of the Irish in Ireland vs. United States. On the topic though, there's only a few hundred Jews left in the first Jewish jurisdiction: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_Autonomous_Oblast

Irish-Americans outnumber Irish-Irish nearly 10:1. For a very long time Jewish Americans outnumbered Israeli Jews, if not as lopsidedly.
Around 1AD, the greatest concentration of Jewish people was Alexandria, Egypt, where they made up 1/3 the population, not Jerusalem. The actual history of the Middle East defies simplistic narratives.
