if we’re talking about survival of an ethno-religious group through persecution as a sign — what about the survival of the Yazidis, survival of the Parsis, of Mandaens and of Armenians? Or closer to the Jewish people, of Samaritans?
I thought we were talking about how Feiglin would be a better PM than Bibi.

So far as I know, the Yezidis and Mandaeans were never exiled, and the Parsis exiled only to India where they have lived for centuries. As for the Armenians, while exiled around the world they do not claim a national revelation. There is only one claim of national revelation in all human history. The Samaritans share that claim with the Jews (they claim to represent pre-Davidic Mosaicism, which is at odds with the Biblical explanation of their existence), but small though they are, they live only in Shekhem and Tel-'Aviv.
I do note this: none of the other groups have ever been the object of fevered conspiracy theories for two thousand years asserting they are planning to rule the world.
