<< PS:I thought 'Paradesi' meant 'foreigner' or people from overseas in Sanskrit,no???>>

Para: Supreme, absolute in Sanskrit. Eg: paramatma = absolute or supreme self (Atma)
Parameswaram,
parasakti = Supreme or Absolute Power

<<Jewish friends tell me there are subtle or unspoken prejudice in Israel between various ethnic Jews,particularly the European Jews and the ones from Middle East.I don't know this is true but this is what they tell me.>>

The European jews are Ashkenazi and light-skinned and the dark-skinned Sephardim are middle east jews. To complicate this, there are the Indian jews of many sects and the African Black Jews. The black jews claim that they are not getting equal treatment as shown in broadcast clips in CBS.
Ashkenazi are the top of the heap in Israel as are the Brahmins in India.
I have to do more research to learn more about these things.
