The question as to whether Yasmin Wilshin (nickname; International Business Times) is Russian or Jewish should be left for those who are interested in finding out to determine her nationality by herself, rather than asking for clarification on whether she is Jewish or not. There is no direct answer to this, but there are some clues. In the United States, there are very few people of Jewish descent that have become wealthy, despite the widespread Jewish population. Of course, there are many rich Jews, but it seems more likely that most of them have been very successful in other fields. Likewise, Jews all over the world, even those not necessarily Jewish, tend to rise to great heights of achievement in business and politics. Wilshin is an accomplished businesswoman, with an impressive list of achievements that is not all that surprising considering her status.
Her partner at International Business Times, Max Keiser, is Jewish. But she says her own roots are Jewish, as is her upbringing. She is passionate about Israel, especially seeing the current situation with its people and its leadership. She has been an advocate of peace between Israel and her community, which is not an easy task given the fact that many Arabs simply do not believe in peace with the Jews, and want all of Israel destroyed.
The question as to whether Yasmin Wilshin (nickname; International Business Times), Max Keiser (nickname; Max Kiehne), and other Jews are indeed international business executives, should not be answered with a straight yes or no answer. But rather, they are individuals with a multitude of talents and capabilities. They have achieved great heights in their field, while succeeding in ways that might seem far from typical for their background. These are talents and capabilities that can be applied in international business. Wilshin is no doubt a talented entrepreneur, and Max Keiser is undoubtedly a skilled political organizer. They are also both highly skilled in marketing and sales.
