Does putting Jewish stuff on my CV help or hurt for London IB?

I'm a first year at a European target, and I'm planning on recruiting for London IB in the fall. I'm Jewish, and although my CV is fine without it, I am a member of some Jewish stuff that I could add. Given how contentious the situation is at the moment, would you say Jewish stuff is a net negative or net positive?

I think the above poster means that some people who lean more anti-Israel might feel strongly about someone actually fighting against Gazans in the IDF vs someone who is just simply Jewish. Singapore and Switzerland are not in the middle of a thousand year conflict with anyone

OP, I think random miscellaneous Jewish orgs are neither a help nor a hurt. If they're a big part of your identity or involvement/leadership, put them, but otherwise it's neither here nor there
