The way i see it is a little different.

Given that the jewish people have suffered such persecution in relatively recent history, its important that they are well cushioned, at least for a while, from it happening again.

I like to think of it similarly to positive discrimination. To give woman a fighting chance for example. I don't necessarily think these methods are good long term, but they do deserve some protections until proper balances are restored

For me, thats what these definitions are all about. Give the jewish people a leg up after all the dreadful things that have happened to them. Give them a degree of security that they most certainly have earnt.
