I just read this interesting article. What I didn't find is the point that someone who has become Jewish cannot be against Jews.

I don’t understand what you mean - what is wrong with a German becoming Jewish if his intentions are pure?  Undecided
I am fine with it. Most of the Jews who live where I live came from Russia and their Rabbi is a Russian-English and a little German-speaking convert with a colourful past. I am surprised to read in the article that so many of my countrymen are converting to Judaism that some of those who were born Jewish feel uncomfortable.
If someone wishes to convert to Judaism, it is irrelevant that some Jewish people may find themselves "uncomfortable" with the ethnicity or nationality of the candidate. 

So far as conversion is concerned the ethnicity or nationality of the candidate is irrelevant.
The only requirement is that their intentions as another person has said, are pure.

I agree 100%
I am not jewish so forgive me, but is judaism not a religion? Can you put a marker cap on belief and faith?
It is more than just a religion, it is a way of life.
