Nope.

The Jewish Legion was a WWI entity.

The Jews were never considered a separate racial group by the British.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Barbeques on fire by the chalets past the castle headland
I watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off the Newborough gate
All these moments will be lost in time, like icecream on the beach
Time for tea.
