It ceased to exist with the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans in 70 C.E. That is why the religion of the Jews is a hollow structure, because All the Law's important religious activities could only be done at the proper Temple. That is why Judaism is an abandoned practice, left to rot after their rejection of the Messiah. God has no link to them any longer, nor does he view them as his people.
I am, by blood, at least 25% Jewish, maybe higher.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
