Oh, is that why the Inquisition happened and the Holocaust? Funny that you guys like to go back to those days when it suits you, but if someone brings up black slavery in America which is far more recent, that's the past and you are not responsible, right? And you don't use that to lash yourselves for it. Cut the bullsh*t. The Middle East within the last 100 years was f**ked by the west. The Jews were killed by the millions by Christians less than 100 years ago, so stop trying to pull this "kumbaya" between Christians and Jews against "Arabs" using history going back a 1000 friggin years ago. It also shows what an uneducated buffoon you are because you stupidly use "Arabs" when you meant MUSLIM. You think the Ottoman Empire was "Arab," you ignoramus? Arabs are Muslim, Christian and Jew. The latter two were in Arab govts for centuries until the west showed up and f***ed everything. You guys like to ignore recent history when European Christians decided to massacre European Jews and made the Middle East pay for what those Christians had done. |
Jews were considered dhimmi across the Middle East. Basically that meant they were there by invitation and had to adhere to rules dictated to them. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dhimmi |

Jews were persecuted in Yemen to the point where literally none exist there anymore.
In 2015, the Yemen government told the remaining Jews to convert or leave. They left. |
Here I found rest and happiness; Turkey can also become for you the land of peace … Here the Jew is not compelled to wear a yellow hat as a badge of shame, as is the case in Germany, where even great wealth and fortune are a curse for a Jew because he therewith arouses jealousy among Christians … Arise my brethren, gird up your loins, collect your forces, and come to us. Here you will be free of your enemies, here you will find rest … |
That’s great. We’re not talking about Turkey. |
Sweetheart, attempting to tell yourself Jews had it worse in Arab countries than they did in Europe, because you've chosen to embrace white supremacy as it currently suits Zionism, doesn't work with me. It's why Polish Jews like Bibi are now blaming Palestinians for the Holocaust. I know Iraqi Jews who were among the wealthiest in Baghdad and it was only after Zionism showed up, did it go to sh*t. You can play this game with some rube in the DMV, but I know what you're doing now is desperation to align yourself with white Christianity by minimizing what they did to Jews in Europe and lying to yourself about how Jews were treated much worse in the Mideast. It's a shanda on your part doing this. |
I never said it was worse. I said it wasn’t this utopia you’re arguing it is. Let’s see how Jews fared in Iran: They are obliged to live in a separate part of town…; for they are considered as unclean creatures… Under the pretext of their being unclean, they are treated with the greatest severity and should they enter a street, inhabited by Mussulmans, they are pelted by the boys and mobs with stones and dirt… For the same reason, they are prohibited to go out when it rains; for it is said the rain would wash dirt off them, which would sully the feet of the Mussulmans… If a Jew is recognized as such in the streets, he is subjected to the greatest insults. The passers-by spit in his face, and sometimes beat him… unmercifully… If a Jew enters a shop for anything, he is forbidden to inspect the goods… Should his hand incautiously touch the goods, he must take them at any price the seller chooses to ask for them... Sometimes the Persians intrude into the dwellings of the Jews and take possession of whatever please them. Should the owner make the least opposition in defense of his property, he incurs the danger of atoning for it with his life... If... a Jew shows himself in the street during the three days of the Katel (Muharram)…, he is sure to be murdered.[35] |
Although it was a project conceived in Europe by Europeans and for European Jews, they lacked sufficient numbers to build a population large enough to conquer the indigenous Palestinian population. Thus, recruitment of Jews from the surrounding Arab world was a necessary inconvenience. They did so through propaganda and by creating false flag terror incidents (bombing of synagogues or Jewish centres) in order provoke an exodus of Arab Jews. A prime example of this happened in Iraq, where the oldest Jewish community in the world had lived for millennia as contributing members of Iraqi society, and who prospered, contributed to the arts and the economy, and participated in government.
But these Jews were not embraced as brethren by European Zionists. Zionism was decidedly colonial, and that meant that Jews of the Arab world were seen as incomplete, barbaric, dirty, uncivilised. Za’ev Jabotinsky, one of the forefathers of Zionism said, “We Jews have nothing in common with what is called the Orient, thank God. To the extent that our uneducated masses [Arab Jews] have ancient spiritual traditions and laws that call the Orient, they must be weaned away from them, and this is in fact what we are doing in every decent school, what life itself is doing with great success. We are going in Palestine, first for our national convenience, [second] to sweep out thoroughly all traces of the Oriental soul.” One of the most egregious was a large initiative of stealing the babies of Arab Jews and giving them to be raised by European Jews. But the larger efforts were simple propaganda campaigns that were implemented in schools, communities, and national projects. In essence, it was a project to strip ancient peoples of their identities, which was not unlike what they tried to do to Palestinians. Zionists were trying to create a new nation with a unified people. So, they could not abide allowing parts of this population to continue to identify as Iraqi, Moroccan, Persian, Tunisian, and so on, and certainly not as Arab Jews. At the same time, the racist impulses of colonialism could not abide putting these people on par with Jews of Europe. They could not simply be Jews in the new Jewish state. Thus, the word Mizrahim, from the Hebrew and Arabic words meaning “those of the East,” was popularised to lump all of these peoples of different nations into a single miscellaneous category that erased their individual ancient histories and cultures that spanned thousands of years of life and tradition, replete with countless and invaluable achievements in their respective nations. Before Israel, Jews of Iraq identified as Iraqi, of Morocco as Moroccan, of Tunisia as Tunisian, of Iran as Persian, of Syria as Syrian, of Egypt as Egyptian, and of Palestine as Palestinian. They spoke Arabic, ate the same foods as their Christian and Muslim compatriots, celebrated and partook in the same national events and traditions, lived by the same social protocols, and moved through their respective cultures as other natives did. And despite the similarities of their cultures, Tunisians were distinct from Egyptians, who were both distinct from Iraqis, who were distinct from Moroccans, etc. But Israel collapsed them all under a single identity, which was to be distinguished only from Ashkenazis, European Jews, who were higher up on the social order. |
Israel’s Mizrahim are the other victims of Zionism.
Someone mentioned Yemen earlier. You should Google the Yemenite children affair |
This is worse than Hitler |
The way Jews act it’s like Hitler didn’t even exist or kill six million Jews not even a century ago. Absolutely no animus for Germany?
If Hamas offered to pay Israel a reparation in perpetuity for 10/7, Israel would not move on and let bygones be bygones. The anti Orientalism or whatever it’s called that Israel suffers from is obvious. It’s a Nazi country that won’t even elect a Mizrahi leader because it’s so racist |
Look up blood libel. For quite some time (centuries), European Christendom believed Jews were eating Christian babies. Given Trumps recent comments about another group eating cats and dogs and taking pets for food and the multiple bomb threats (from his supporters) that reached Springfield, Ohio, do you have to wonder who the masters of social ostraciziation, insanity, and sensational rumors probably were toward Jews? |
My friend’s aunt in Lebanon was killed today when she left her apartment to go see her children.
A real and innocent person. Anyone who is cheering for Israel at this point is deeply disturbed. |
WTF are you even talking about? You’re so deranged. |
