"Of the one-hundred eleven(111) U.S. Defense Department senior officials, forty(40) are Jews or have Jewish spouses. This is a numerical representation of 36%. Jews are approximately 2% of the U.S. population.* Therefore Jews are over-represented among the U.S. Defense Department senior officials by a factor of 18 times(1,800 percent)."[1]
