My feeling would be that (European-descent) Jews are conditionally white makes sense in that it expresses the hierarchy? And the ways that Jewish people could access some resources & services that weren't available to others, but also, white supremacists won't and don't accept Jews of European descent as white. I mean, as you say, race is fundamentally mutable and conditional, but it's still a different relationship with whiteness than say, mine (as a white Brit from an Anglican background).
