This Lady did her homework! I apologize for the offbeat language she is using, at times, however, this should not diminish the information she is providing.
Since ancient times the ruling powers used the obedience demanded by religious groups to their full advantage. One might even think that these two groups were joined at the hips, i.e., had a symbiotic relationship.
"We first hear of the 144,000 in Scripture in In Revelation 7: "then I heard the number of those who were sealed: 144,000 from all the tribes of Israel." This Biblical statement occurs during an interlude following the judgment depicted in the sixth seal of the tribulation (Revelation 6:12–17) and preceding the unveiling of the seventh seal (Revelation 8:1)."
"How one answers the question “who are the 144,000?” depends on which interpretive approach one takes to the book of Revelation. The futurist approach, which we consider the best, interprets the 144,000 literally. When taken at face value, Revelation 7:4 seems to speak of 144,000 actual people living during the end-times tribulation. Nothing in the passage leads to interpreting the 144,000 as anything but a literal number of Jews—12,000 taken from every tribe of the children of Israel, according to verses 5–8."
"These 144,000 Jews are “sealed,” which means they have the special protection of God. They are kept safe from the divine judgments and from the wrath of the Antichrist. They can freely perform their mission during the tribulation. It had been previously prophesied that Israel would repent and turn back to God (Zechariah 12:10; Romans 11:25–27), and the 144,000 Jews seem to be a sort of “first fruits”"
The foregoing seems to imply that not too many Jews will be secure during the Tribulation. How can it be otherwise? In God's 10 Commandments in states: "Thou shalt not kill." Accordingly, it seems only logical that at Judgement time only 144000 of the Jews will be secure. Indeed over 80% of Israelis are perfectly OK with the killings, by all means, their Government is perpetrating in Gaza.

It is really hard to reason with people who refuse to reason that a "God of love" would not support human slaughter. They cannot envision that "The Loving Father" taught by Jesus is different from the "Vengeful/Jealous God" of Abraham et al.
